The retina is a layered structure that lines the inner surface of the eye. It consists of layers of neurons: light-sensitive photoreceptor cells, bipolar cells, horizontal cells, amacrine cells ...

Drusen can be treated by a specific vitamin and mineral supplement. • Wet AMD is more serious. It happens when new, abnormal blood vessels grow under the retina. If they leak blood or other ...

whereas we now know that the development of hard exudates or macular edema can progress independently of overall retinopathy status. In 1966, Lee et al. proposed an updated DR classification system, ...

With the dry form, parts of the macula — at the center of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of your eyes — become thin, and tiny clumps of protein called drusen grow, gradually ...

A poster presentation highlighted the usefulness of EDI-OCT for detecting optic nerve head drusen in children. Enhanced depth imaging-optical coherence tomography may be the preferred method for ...

Macular degeneration causes central vision loss, resulting in difficulties seeing straight ahead (though one's side or peripheral vision remains intact). Drusen Drusen are small yellow or white ...

In a meta-analysis, Saw and coworkers compared trials on retina detachment surgery and found no clear evidence in favor for any technique. It seemed that too many aspects are important for the ...

Although age is the top risk factor for age-related macular degeneration, research shows that genetics play a big part in your risk of developing this eye condition. Our eyes go through several ...

The macula is the central area of the retina, which provides the most detailed central vision. In the dry (nonexudative) form, cellular debris called drusen accumulate between the retina and the ...

The retinal images in the IDRiD dataset were captured by retinal ... with precise pixel-level annotations for DR-related anomalies (such as Microaneurysms (MA), Soft Exudates (SE), Hard Exudates (EX), ...

Motivation: Retinal microvasculature is a unique window for predicting and monitoring major cardiovascular diseases, but high throughput tools based on deep learning for in-detail retinal vessel ...
