This study linked ocular Torque Teno Virus (TTV) in uveitis patients, especially those with CMV retinitis, to systemic immunodeficiency, suggesting TTV may be a biomarker for compromised immunity in ocular inflammation.

This study found the common c.802-8_810del17insGC mutation in East Asian Bietti crystalline dystrophy patients doesn't cause more severe vision loss, suggesting its clinical impact isn't disproportionately harsh.

In RP patients, increased aqueous flare was linked to faster central visual field loss, suggesting it could be a useful marker for disease progression.

CRX gene mutations cause variable retinal dystrophies, often with electronegative ERGs, even in asymptomatic carriers. Consider CRX testing for patients with unexplained electronegative ERGs.

This study found S-antigen mutations cause both Oguchi disease and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Oguchi disease patients maintain good vision, but some can progress to RP, highlighting a phenotypic spectrum.
