The ABCA4 protein (then called a “rim protein”) was first identified in 1978 in the rims and
incisures of rod photoreceptors. The corresponding gene, ABCA4, was cloned in 1997, and …

Vision loss after retinal or cerebral visual injury (CVI) was long considered to be irreversible.
However, there is considerable potential for vision restoration and recovery even in …

Purpose.: To measure macular visual function in patients with unstable fixation, to define the
photoreceptor source of this function, and to estimate its test-retest repeatability as a …

Since the discovery of the ABCA4 gene as the cause of autosomal recessive Stargardt
disease/fundus flavimaculatus much has been written of the phenotypic variability in ABCA4 …

The assessment of vision has a growing importance in the management of retinoblastoma in
the era of globe-conserving therapy, both prior to and after treatment. As survival rates …

Purpose To evaluate disease progression in a cohort of patients with a clinical and genetic
diagnosis of Stargardt disease. Design Longitudinal cohort study. Participants A total of 56 …

Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of visual rehabilitation with microperimeter biofeedback in
patients with central scotoma. Materials and Methods 35 consecutive patients with central …

Low vision is any type of visual impairment that affects activities of daily living. In the context
of low vision, we define plasticity as changes in brain or perceptual behavior that follow the …

Purpose To determine fixation location and fixation stability in Stargardt disease (STGD1)
and their association with best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Design Cross-sectional …

Background The internal limiting membrane (ILM) insertion technique was widely used to
treat large macular hole (MH) for the high closure rate. However, the prognosis of closed MH …
