Safety of an intravitreal injection of triamcinolone: results from a randomized clinical trial.
Mark C Gillies,Judy M. Simpson,Frank A. Billson,Wei Luo,Philip L. Penfold,William Chua,Paul Mitchell,Meidong Zhu,Alex B. L. Hunyor +8 more
TL;DR: Despite a significant adverse event profile, intravitreal triamcinolone is generally well tolerated by the human eye as long as patients are carefully followed up by their surgeon and treated appropriately, when necessary.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Randomized Clinical Trial of a Single Dose of Intravitreal Triamcinolone Acetonide for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration: One-Year Results
Mark C Gillies,Judy M. Simpson,Wei Luo,Philip L. Penfold,Alex B. L. Hunyor,William Chua,Paul Mitchell,Frank A. Billson +7 more
TL;DR: A single dose of intravitreal triamcinolone had no effect on the risk of loss of visual acuity during the first year of the study in eyes with age-related macular degeneration and classic choroidal neovascularization, despite a significant antiangiogenic effect found 3 months after treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of the human retina: Patterns of cell distribution and redistribution in the ganglion cell layer
TL;DR: There is a rapid decline in cell density in the foveal ganglion cell layer toward the end of gestation, and it is suggested that the persistence of high densities in the perifoveal region may be related to migration of cells away from the developing fovea.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monocular Axial Myopia Associated with Neonatal Eyelid Closure in Human Infants
TL;DR: Clinical findings and ultrasonographic biometric measurements suggested that axial elongation of the eye may occur as a result of neonatal eyelid closure, a finding similar to that for experimental myopia produced in neonatal animals after eyelid fusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurofibromatosis type 1 and optic pathway gliomas: follow-up of 54 patients.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the natural history of optic pathway gliomas (OPGs) in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), and evaluate the current recommended guidelines for monitoring and follow-up of OPGs in this population.
