TLDR
It is found that the photoreceptor-retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) complex accounts for two thirds of total oxygen consumption and substantially influences oxygen transport between the choroid and the inner retina.About:

Regulation of retinal blood flow in health and disease
Constantin J. Pournaras,E Rungger-Brändle,Charles E. Riva,Sveinn Hakon Hardarson,Einar Stefánsson +4 more
TL;DR: Correct control of the multiple pathways, such as retinal blood flow, tissue oxygenation and metabolic substrate support, aiming at restoring retinal cell metabolic interactions, may be effective in preventing damage occurring during the evolution of ischemic microangiopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diabetic macular edema: a review
TL;DR: There is a higher rate of modest visual improvement and a lower rate of visual deterioration in eyes treated with laser photocoagulation, and Correction of systemic abnormalities (reduced blood pressure, diuresis) should be included as part of the total management of patients with diabetic macular edema.

Solar radiation and age-related macular degeneration.
TL;DR: The evidence that solar radiation is responsible for some of the deteriorative changes that lead to age-related macular degeneration is examined in this review.

Diabetic maculopathy. A critical review highlighting diffuse macular edema.
TL;DR: It is postulated that photocoagulative debridement of a disordered retinal pigment epithelium could be a mechanism of action of this treatment of diffuse macular edema.

TL;DR: The aims of this study were to delineate the clinical presentation of maternally inherited diabetes and deafness, including involvement of other organs, in a large series of patients and to assess the prevalence of diabetic microvascular and macrovascular complications.

Adlerʼs Physiology of the Eye: Clinical Application. 6th Edition
TL;DR: This edition incorporates the newest concepts of neural scence and psychophysics; updates all chapters, and provides new references; and consistency of style is maintained throughout the chapters via a sole editor.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Diffusion of Oxygen and Lactic Acid through Tissues
TL;DR: The diffusion constant k is expressed in terms of the number of unit quantities of substance which diffuse per minute across an area of 1 sq. cm as discussed by the authors in a gradient of concentration per cm. The diffusion constant is of the dimensions L2T-1, 2 in length, -1 in time.

Journal ArticleDOI
Retrolental fibroplasia; cooperative study of retrolental fibroplasia and the use of oxygen.
TL;DR: A number of pediatricians and ophthalmologists agreed early in 1953 to pool their nursery facilities and interests and investigate cooperatively the question of whether oxygen was in fact an etiologic agent in RLF and at the same time what effect restricting oxygen might have on infant mortality.
