A randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial of high-dose supplementation with vitamins C and E, beta carotene, and zinc for age-related macular degeneration and vision loss: AREDS report no. 8

TL;DR: People older than 55 years should have dilated eye examinations to determine their risk of developing advanced AMD and those with extensive intermediate size drusen, at least 1 large druse, noncentral geographic atrophy in 1 or both eyes, or advanced AMD or vision loss due to AMD in 1 eye should consider taking a supplement of antioxidants plus zinc.
Journal ArticleDOI

A randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial of high-dose supplementation with vitamins c and e and beta carotene for age-related cataract and vision loss: AREDS report no. 9

TL;DR: Use of a high-dose formulation of vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta carotene in a relatively well-nourished older adult cohort had no apparent effect on the 7-year risk of development or progression of age-related lens opacities or visual acuity loss.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longer-term outcomes of transconjunctival sutureless 25-gauge vitrectomy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report longer-term outcomes in eyes undergoing 25-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy and show that less surgically complex vitreoretinal pathology may be successfully repaired with TSV.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) system for classifying cataracts from photographs: AREDS Report No. 4

TL;DR: The AREDS system has demonstrated a high degree of reliability in grading the severity of lens opacities in a large study cohort with mostly early lens changes, the type of cohort most likely to be entered in clinical trials involving cataract prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vitrectomy for diffuse diabetic macular edema associated with a taut premacular posterior hyaloid.

TL;DR: In eyes with persistent diffuse diabetic macular edema with a taut premacular posterior hyaloid face unresponsive to laser therapy, vitrectomy with removal of the posterior hyaaloid appears to be beneficial in some cases.
