TL;DR: A genome-wide association scan for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) showed that 329 of 331 individuals with the highest-risk genotypes were cases, and 85% of these had advanced AMD, consistent with the hypothesis that HDL metabolism is associated with AMD pathogenesis.

TL;DR: The early treatment diabetic retinopathy study (ETDRS) as mentioned in this paper was a randomized clinical trial of aspirin vs placebo, which was sponsored by the National Eye Institute (NIEI).

TL;DR: The clinical characteristics of 75 eyes with congenital pits of the optic nerve head were reviewed, particularly in relation to associated serous retinal detachment as discussed by the authors, and clinical evidence was presented supporting the theory that the associated subretinal fluid is derived from liquified vitreous.

TL;DR: The study documents increased levels of basic fibroblast growth factor in vitreous specimens from patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy, particularly those with active proliferative Retinopathy.

TL;DR: Most patients in whom presumed infectious endophthalmitis develop after anti-VEGF injection regained baseline vision after treatment, and a low threshold for vitreous tap with intravitreal antibiotic injection may be warranted.
