Aim
To investigate whether pseudomyopia is an independent risk factor for myopia onset based on a population-based cohort study.
Methods
Non-myopic children were recruited from schools in rural and urban settings of Shangdong province, China. Baselin…
Aims
Adenomas of the ciliary body epithelium, including adenoma of the pigmented ciliary body epithelium (APCE) and adenoma of the non-pigmented ciliary body epithelium (ANPCE), are extremely rare, and most knowledge about them comes from sporadic cas…
Purpose
To investigate genetic loci associated with ocular axial length (AL) in the Chinese population.
Methods
A genome-wide association study meta-analysis was conducted in totalling 2644 Chinese individuals from 3 cohorts: the Guangzhou cohort (GZ…
Purpose

Purpose
Post hoc analysis of the phase III HAWK and HARRIER studies to compare the reductions in subretinal hyper-reflective material (SHRM) thickness following brolucizumab 6 mg or aflibercept 2 mg treatment and to assess SHRM thickness and thickness…
Background/aims
National guidelines of many countries set screening intervals for diabetic retinopathy (DR) based on grading of the last screening retinal images. We explore the potential of deep learning (DL) on images to predict progression to refer…
Background
In experimental studies, intravitreally applied antibodies against epidermal growth factor (EGF), EGF family members (amphiregulin, neuregulin-1, betacellulin, epigen, epiregulin) and against the EGF receptor (EGFR) were associated with a r…
Aims
To investigate the burden of blindness and vision loss (BVL) in China over the past 30 years according to year, age and sex, and to estimate future predictions.
Methods
We analysed the years lived with disability (YLDs), number of cases, age-sta…
Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced and irreversible form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Chronic low grade inflammation is thought to act as an initiator of this degenerative process, resulting in loss of photoreceptors (PRs), retinal p…
Background
Evidence on the practical application of artificial intelligence (AI)-based diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening is needed.
Methods
Consented participants were screened for DR using retinal imaging with AI interpretation from March 2021 to …
