Citation: Garg A, Blumberg DM, AlAswad LA, et al. Associations between b-peripapillary atrophy and reticular pseudodrusen in early age-related macular degeneration. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci. 2017;58:2810–2815. DOI:10.1167/iovs.16-20343 PURPOSE. Choroidal thinning has been associated with reticular pseudodrusen (RPD) and bperipapillary atrophy (b-PPA), which have been linked to normal-tension glaucoma (NTG). This analysis sought to determine whether RPD are independently associated with b-PPA in early AMD patients. Secondary outcomes included the association of RPD and preexisting diagnosis of glaucoma, cup-to-disc ratio (CDR), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), and IOP.

متن کاملLongitudinal Structural Changes in Late-onset Retinal Degeneration.
PURPOSE To characterize longitudinal structural changes in early stages of late-onset retinal degeneration to investigate pathogenic mechanisms. METHODS Two affected siblings, both with a S163R missense mutation in the causative gene C1QTNF5, were followed for 8+ years. Color fundus photos, fundus autofluorescence images, near-infrared reflectance fundus images, and spectral domain optical co...
متن کاملAssociation between geographic atrophy progression and reticular pseudodrusen in eyes with dry age-related macular degeneration.
PURPOSE To evaluate geographic atrophy (GA) progression in eyes with dry AMD and to determine factors related to GA expansion, notably reticular pseudodrusen (RPD), also known as subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDD) or reticular macular disease (RMD). METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with dry AMD who were diagnosed with GA in at least one eye and were imaged with seque...
متن کاملDetection of Early Loss of Color Vision in Age-Related Macular Degeneration - With Emphasis on Drusen and Reticular Pseudodrusen.
Purpose To evaluate chromatic sensitivity in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) characterized by drusen and reticular pseudodrusen. To investigate whether the severity of color vision loss can distinguish between various stages of AMD and hence be used as an index of progression toward advanced AMD. Methods Chromatic sensitivity was measured by using the Color Assessment and...
