Nikolas Pontikos,Gavin Arno,Neringa Jurkute,Elena R. Schiff,Rola Ba-Abbad,Samantha Malka,Ainoa Cordoba Gimenez,Michalis Georgiou,Genevieve A. Wright,Monica Armengol,HE Knight,Menachem Katz,Mariya Moosajee,Patrick Yu-Wai-Man,Anthony T. Moore,Michel Michaelides,Andrew R. Webster,Omar A. Mahroo +17 more
TL;DR: A large cohort of molecularly characterized inherited retinal disease (IRD) families was investigated, finding correlation between numbers of families and gene transcript length correlated significantly with numbers of affected families.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postoperative complications after primary adult optical penetrating keratoplasty: prevalence and impact on graft survival.
Michael D. Wagoner,Rola Ba-Abbad,Mansour Al-Mohaimeed,Samar A Al-Swailem,M. Bridget Zimmerman +4 more
TL;DR: The prevalence of post-PKP complications and their impact on graft survival vary significantly among surgical indications for primary adult optical PKP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corneal Transplant Survival after Onset of Severe Endothelial Rejection
TL;DR: Endothelial rejection is a serious complication of PK, with a high risk of graft failure, and the surgical indication for PK significantly correlated with likelihood of reversibility and long-term graft survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutations in CACNA2D4 Cause Distinctive Retinal Dysfunction in Humans.
Rola Ba-Abbad,Gavin Arno,Keren J. Carss,Kathleen Stirrups,Christopher J. Penkett,Anthony T. Moore,Michel Michaelides,F. Lucy Raymond,Andrew R. Webster,Graham E. Holder,Graham E. Holder +10 more
TL;DR: SS-OCT showed that NFL thickening occurred in the early stage of RD and that the bundled NFL was the major component of the RFs, and showed that the unique NFL bundles may develop in a limited manner under severe traction caused by fibrovascular tissues in the peripheral retina during that period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetrating keratoplasty for keratoconus with or without vernal keratoconjunctivitis.
Wagoner,Rola Ba-Abbad +1 more
TL;DR: Graft survival, postoperative complications, and visual outcome are comparable after penetrating keratoplasty for KC in eyes with or without a history of vernal keratoconjunctivitis.
