TL;DR: Progressive macular thickening under the array was common and corresponded to decreased electrode-retina gap over time, and the mean maximal gap size decrease was significant at midline.

TL;DR: The presenting features of ophthalmic giant cell arteritis in African-Americans and Caucasians are not markedly different, although a few significant differences exist, including higher rates of headache, neck pain, anemia, and eye pain, and lower rates of jaw claudication and acute vision loss inAfrican-Americans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Loss of Foveal Cone Photoreceptor Outer Segments in Occult Macular Dystrophy.
TL;DR: A previously unreported finding on optical coherence tomography in a patient with occult macular dystrophy is described and correlated with retinal dysfunction and may be responsible for decreased visual acuity and foveal thinning in OMD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and molecular characterization of a family affected with X-linked ocular albinism (OA1)
Byron L. Lam,John H. Fingert,Bryce C. Shutt,E. Mitchell Singleton,Lawrence M. Merin,Harry H. Brown,Val C. Sheffield,Edwin M. Stone +7 more
TL;DR: Mutation screening of the OA1 gene can be used to confirm the diagnosis in isolated males of some families, and genetic linkage analysis can beused to accurately identify carriers even when the specific mutation cannot be identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuro-ophthalmic manifestations of fungal disease associated with posthurricane environment.
TL;DR: These cases underscore the importance of clinical recognition of fungal disease in patients with sinus, orbital, or skull base involvement as well as its potential for causing permanent visual loss, and suggests a potential association betweenfungal disease and tropical storm exposure.
