Neuroprotection in the Retina: From Preventing Inflammatory Cell Death to Promoting Vascular Stability in the Central Nervous System

Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide. Glaucoma is defined clinically as the presence of optic nerve head (ONH) degeneration and progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Intra-ocular pressure (IOP) has been con ...

Clinically compliant cryopreservation of differentiated retinal pigment epithelial cells

Gioele La Manno, Alex Russell Lederer, Cheng Zhao

Background aims: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of blindness in elderly patients within developed countries, affecting more than 190 million worldwide. In AMD, the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell layer progressively d ...

Evaluating contrast sensitivity in early and intermediate age-related Macular Degeneration with the Quick Contrast Sensitivity Function

Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe, validate, and compare the contrast sensitivity functions (CSFs) acquired with the novel quick CSF (qCSF) method from patients with early and intermediate age-related macular degeneration (eAMD and iAMD) a ...

Influence of macular pigment on the sensitivity to discomfort glare from daylight

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

Understanding the factors that influence the human perception of glare is necessary to properly address glare risks in buildings and achieve comfortable visual environments, especially in the workplace. Yet large inter-individual variabilities in glare per ...

Discomfort glare from daylight: Influence of transmitted color and the eye's macular pigment

Sneha Jain

Designing architectural façades that allow sufficient daylight to create visually comfortable and pleasant environments is a challenging aspect of building design. It requires accounting for visual comfort and discomfort glare risks and understanding the f ...

In Vivo Retinal Pigment Epithelium Imaging using Transscleral Optical Imaging in Healthy Eyes

Christophe Moser, Timothé Laforest, Laura Emmanuelle Kowalczuk, Mathieu Künzi

Objective: To image healthy retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells in vivo using Transscleral OPtical Imaging (TOPI) and to analyze statistics of RPE cell features as a function of age, axial length (AL), and eccentricity. Design: Single-center, explorator ...

Molecular profiling of stem cell-derived retinal pigment epithelial cell differentiation established for clinical translation

Gioele La Manno, Alex Russell Lederer, Irina Khven

Human embryonic stem cell-derived retinal pigment epithelial cells (hESC-RPE) are a promising cell source to treat age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Despite several ongoing clinical studies, a detailed mapping of transient cellular states during in v ...

Impact of interhemispheric inhibition on bimanual movement control in young and old

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita

Interhemispheric interactions demonstrate a crucial role for directing bimanual movement control. In humans, a well-established paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation paradigm enables to assess these interactions by means of interhemispheric inhibi ...

OCT-angiography assessing quiescent and active choroidal neovascularization in retinitis pigmentosa associated with PRPH2 pathogenic variant

Imen Habibi

Purpose: To report multimodal imaging findings including optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) of a patient presenting with a quiescent choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in one eye and an active CNV in the fellow eye, complicating retinitis pig ...

On Sensitivity to Glare and Its Relationship with Macular Pigment

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

Current trends in discomfort glare research have suggested the influence of physiological parameters on individual glare perception. To this end, we hypothesize that a specific ocular physiology characteristic, namely the macular pigment (MP) in the retina ...
