RPE thickness and reflectivity were studied in healthy, early, and intermediate AMD eyes. Intermediate AMD showed thinner, less reflective RPE, correlating with worse rod-mediated vision, suggesting potential for AMD detection.

This study found that increased subretinal drusenoid deposit (SDD) area is strongly linked to worse rod-mediated vision, suggesting SDDs impair night vision in AMD patients.

This study compared glaucoma diagnosis agreement between telemedicine, in-person ophthalmologists, and optometrists. Telemedicine showed moderate agreement, suggesting its utility for glaucoma screening and increasing access to care, especially in remote areas.

This study found outer retinal thinning, not nerve fiber layer, correlated with lower cognition in aging to intermediate AMD, suggesting a unique brain-outer retina link in AMD.

Targeted glaucoma screenings in high-risk communities (poverty, African American/Hispanic) found a 27% glaucoma/suspect rate, three times the national average, highlighting the need for focused outreach.

Telemedicine screening in FQHCs detected high rates of treatable eye conditions (30% glaucoma, 37.6% cataract), with good follow-up attendance (76.7%) and high patient satisfaction, showing its effectiveness and scalability.

This study found common vision tests in older drivers poorly predict car crashes, suggesting vision screening alone may not improve safety enough to outweigh mobility loss.

Swain Thomas A, McGwin Gerald, Wood Joanne M, Antin Jonathan F, Owsley Cynthia

This study found impaired contrast sensitivity, slowed visual processing, and poor motion perception increase crash risk in older drivers, highlighting visual function's critical role in driving safety.

This study evaluates telemedicine's effectiveness for detecting eye diseases like glaucoma in rural, at-risk populations, aiming to improve vision care access and prevent vision loss.

This study found older glaucoma patients' telemedicine knowledge varied by age, education, and race, but many showed favorable attitudes, suggesting potential for integrated care with targeted education.

Retail optometrists' adherence to glaucoma guidelines was studied, revealing high compliance for basic elements but significant gaps in crucial tests like gonioscopy, visual fields, and target IOP. This could impede timely glaucoma progression detection.

Rhodes Lindsay A, Huisingh Carrie E, Quinn Adam E, McGwin Gerald, LaRussa Frank, Box Daniel et al.

This study found no significant racial differences in BMO-MRW between African and European descendants with normal eyes, suggesting race-specific normative data may not be needed for glaucoma assessment.

Zarubina Anna V, Neely David C, Clark Mark E, Huisingh Carrie E, Samuels Brian C, Zhang Yuhua et al.

Multimodal imaging revealed subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDD) in 23% of healthy maculas and over half of AMD patients, strongly linking SDD to AMD presence/severity and suggesting its clinical importance.

Kwon MiYoung, Huisingh Carrie, Rhodes Lindsay A, McGwin Gerald, Wood Joanne M, Owsley Cynthia

Older drivers with glaucoma have a higher rate of at-fault collisions, especially with severe visual field loss, highlighting the need for driving safety assessment in these patients.

McGwin Gerald, Huisingh Carrie, Jain Shelly G, Girkin Christopher A, Owsley Cynthia

This study found that glaucoma patients with severe binocular visual field pattern deviation impairment have double the risk of at-fault motor vehicle collisions, highlighting driving safety concerns.

SD-OCT measurements of optic nerve, RNFL, and macula vary significantly with age and race, highlighting the need for population-specific normative data in glaucoma diagnosis.

This study precisely mapped human macular chorioretinal layer thicknesses. It found age-related thinning in RPE/choroid and thickening in OPLHenle, providing crucial histologic data for interpreting OCT scans and understanding retinal aging.

A survey found no significant association between self-reported Ginkgo biloba use and glaucoma, suggesting it's not widely used by glaucoma patients and its efficacy remains unproven.

Cotran Paul R, Roh Shiyoung, McGwin Gerald

This study compared two phacotrabeculectomy techniques, finding both similarly effective for long-term IOP control and medication reduction, but 1-site had more early leaks and shorter operating time.

This study compared HRT II and HRT 3 for glaucoma diagnosis, finding HRT 3's vertical cup-to-disc ratio (VCDR) offered higher sensitivity, but the Glaucoma Probability Score (GPS) had diagnostic issues related to disc size.

This study found that age-related maculopathy primarily impairs rod-mediated dark adaptation, even in early stages, impacting low-light vision more than daytime vision.

DeLeón Ortega Julio E, Sakata Lisandro M, Kakati Bobby, McGwin Gerald, Monheit Blythe E, Arthur Stella N et al.

This study found that while some glaucoma measurement repeatability (GDx RNFL, HRT-II vertical C/D) was stable, others (ONH topography) worsened with disease severity, suggesting specific parameters are better for monitoring advanced glaucoma.
