Journal ArticleDOI
Anatomy and development of the macula: specialisation and the vulnerability to macular degeneration.
TL;DR: It is argued that at the macula stressed retinal neurons adapt during development to a limited blood supply from the choriocapillaris, which supplies little in excess of metabolic demand of the neural retina under normal conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of opsin expression and apoptosis in determination of cone types in human retina
TL;DR: No evidence of significant levels of apoptosis in L/M cones at the expression front is found, suggesting that this decrease in S cone density in fetal compared to adult retinae was not due to cell death, and is likely due to other developmental events acting on the photoreceptor layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gradients of cone differentiation and FGF expression during development of the foveal depression in macaque retina.

TL;DR: The results suggest that a wave of cone differentiation spreads from the disc region toward the developing fovea during the second half of gestation in the macaque, and a gradient of expression of FGFR4 and FGF2 associated with the wave of differentiation suggests that FGF signalling mediates cone narrowing and elongation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of short-wavelength-sensitive cones in human fetal and postnatal retina: early development of spatial order and density profiles.
TL;DR: Changes in spatial density during development are consistent with displacement of the photoreceptor population towards the incipient fovea so that prior to 20 WG, peak S-cone density is >1.7 mm from the foveA, but is within 800 microm of thefovea by 20WG.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anterior segment optical coherence tomography and its clinical applications.
TL;DR: A review of extant literature on the utility of AS‐OCT and its efficacy in clinical applications and the quality of available evidence is presented, suggesting the important role of randomised controlled trials and meta‐analyses for the future validation of this technology.
