The effect of concentric and aspheric multifocal soft contact lenses on binocular vision in young adult myopes.

Mar 21, 2022

Multifocal soft contact lenses (MFCLs) are prescribed to inhibit myopia progression; these include aspheric and concentric designs. The effects of MFCLs on visual quality, accommodation and vergence i...

Changes in accommodation and behavioural performance with a contact lens for myopia management: A comparison between a dual-focus and a single-vision soft contact lens.

Mar 21, 2022

Dual-focus soft contact lenses for myopia management have demonstrated to be an effective strategy to reduce myopia progression. However, this optical design has been shown to alter visual quality and...

Dry Eye Symptom Severity and Visual Field Reliability Metrics.

Mar 21, 2022

Tracking failure frequency increases with dry eye symptom severity and in the left eye.Symptoms of dry eye disease are commonly encountered in glaucoma patients and can be exacerbated by topical glauc...

Serine/arginine rich protein kinase-1 (SRPK1) inhibition for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy.

Mar 21, 2022

Angiogenic VEGF isoforms are upregulated in diabetic retinopathy (DR), driving pathological growth and fluid leakage. Serine-Arginine-Rich protein kinase-1 (SRPK1) regulates VEGF splicing, and its inh...
