TL;DR: SD-OCT imaging in eyes with GA revealed a wide spectrum of morphologic alterations, both in the surrounding retinal tissue and in the atrophic area, which may reflect different disease stages or, alternatively, heterogeneity on a cellular and molecular level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum: genetics, clinical manifestations and therapeutic approaches.
Robert P. Finger,Peter Charbel Issa,M. S. Ladewig,Christian Götting,Christina Szliska,Hendrik P. N. Scholl,Frank G. Holz +6 more
TL;DR: Different therapeutic strategies to treat retinal manifestations are discussed, including thermal laser coagulation, photodynamic therapy, and intravitreal injections of drugs inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cataract Surgical Rate and Socioeconomics: A Global Study.
Wei Wang,William Yan,Kathy Fotis,Noela M Prasad,Van C. Lansingh,Hugh R. Taylor,Robert P. Finger,Damian Facciolo,Mingguang He +8 more
TL;DR: Cataract surgical rate and economic indicators are closely associated, indicating the strong influence of resource availability on healthcare delivery and it is important to be innovative in delivery of low-cost services and invest strategically in capacity development to meet cataract surgical need in low-resource settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The economic burden of visual impairment and blindness: a systematic review.
TL;DR: VI&B cause a considerable economic burden for affected persons, their caregivers and society at large, which increases with the degree of visual impairment, and this review provides insight into the distribution of costs and the economic impact.
Journal ArticleDOI
