No significant association found between anti-VEGF therapy for ROP and pulmonary hypertension
October 15th 2022Anti-VEGF therapy for ROP has potential ocular and systemic advantages compared with laser but also noted that the systemic risks of anti-VEGF therapy in these infants need to be quantified.
Risk of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment rises following cataract surgery
October 4th 2022The investigators undertook a study to determine the incidence of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments 1 year after cataract using the IRIS Registry data and to determine the demographic features, ocular comorbidities, and intraoperative factors associated with an increased risk of detachment development.
Late-breaking: Janssen announces data from 2 gene therapy programs
October 2nd 2022Janssen noted that results from Phase 1/2 MGT009 study demonstrate safety profile of investigational gene therapy botaretigene sparoparvovec (AAV-RPGR) and suggest sustained vision improvement in patients with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.
Faricimab eradicates center-involved DME faster than aflibercept
October 2nd 2022The data analysis indicated that patients achieved robust visual gains and central subfield thickness reductions with faricimab dosed every 8 weeks and with PTI dosing up to every 16 weeks. The gains were sustained through year 2 of the trials.
Continuous range-of-motion IOL scores high in patient satisfaction
September 30th 2022Investigators reported that the safety and efficacy of the Tecnis Synergy IOL model ZFR00V indicates that it may be a good option for patients who desire meaningful gains in uncorrected visual acuity at all distances.
