Presence of a fovea centralis is directly linked to molecular specification of an avascular
area in central retina, before the fovea (or 'pit') begins to form. Modelling suggests that …

The visualization and assessment of retinal microvasculature are important in the study,
diagnosis, monitoring, and guidance of treatment of ocular and systemic diseases. With the …

Adaptive optics is a relatively new field, yet it is spreading rapidly and allows new questions
to be asked about how the visual system is organized. The editors of this feature issue have …

The rod photoreceptors are implicated in a number of devastating retinal diseases.
However, routine imaging of these cells has remained elusive, even with the advent of …

Purpose.: To examine sex-and race-associated differences in macular thickness and foveal
pit morphology by using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) …

The human retina is a uniquely accessible tissue. Tools like scanning laser ophthalmoscopy
and spectral domain-optical coherence tomography provide clinicians with remarkably clear …

Methods.: Twelve patients were enrolled. All patients underwent a complete ocular
examination, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), full-field …

Purpose.: To assess the relationship between foveal pit morphology and size of the foveal
avascular zone (FAZ). Methods.: Forty-two subjects were recruited. Volumetric images of the …

The cone dysfunction syndromes are a heterogeneous group of inherited, predominantly
stationary retinal disorders characterised by reduced central vision and varying degrees of …

Albinism, an inherited disorder of melanin biosynthesis, disrupts normal retinal
development, with foveal hypoplasia as one of the more commonly associated ocular …
