The blood–retinal barrier (BRB) plays an important role in the homeostatic regulation of the
microenvironment in the retina. It consists of inner and outer components, the inner BRB …

Retinal hypoxia is the potentially blinding mechanism underlying a number of sight-
threatening disorders including central retinal artery occlusion, ischemic central retinal vein …

Microglia, the resident immune cells of the brain and retina, are constantly engaged in the
surveillance of their surrounding neural tissue. During embryonic development they infiltrate …

An analysis of blind registration forms was made to determine the commonest causes of
blindness in the west of Scotland. It was found that the leading causes of blindness in order …

Hypoxic injury, including that resulting in the retinopathy of prematurity, may induce retinal
ganglion cell (RGC) death in the neonatal retina. We hypothesized that this may be …

Purpose.: To determine whether progressive ametropia can be induced in chicks and
reversed by manipulation of the chromaticity of ambient light. Methods.: One-day-old chicks …

Reactive changes in astrocytes and Müller cells in the retina of adult rats subjected to
hypoxia were investigated. Along with this, the integrity of the blood–retinal barrier (BRB) …

AIMS: The aims of this study were to report local tumour control after trans-scleral local
resection of uveal melanoma and to identify risk factors for (i) clinical residual tumour …
