Clinical features and serial changes of Acanthamoeba keratitis: an in vivo confocal microscopy study
Abstract
Purpose - To observe the clinical features and serial changes of Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) during medical treatment by using confocal microscopy.

Methods - Thirty-seven patients (37 eyes) diagnosed with AK were included in this study. Confocal microscopy was used to observe the morphology, distribution, and density of Acanthamoeba cysts before and after medication. The differences between cysts and inflammatory cells were identified.

Detecting Retinal Nerve Fibre Layer Segmentation Errors on Spectral Domain-Optical Coherence Tomography with a Deep Learning Algorithm
In this study we developed a deep learning (DL) algorithm that detects errors in retinal never fibre layer (RNFL) segmentation on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) B-scans using human grades as the reference standard.

Effect of optic disc size on correlation between Bruch’s membrane opening-minimum rim width and peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer thickness
Objectives - To investigate the effect of optic disc size on correlation between Bruch’s membrane opening-minimum rim width (BMO-MRW) and peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness from three scan circles.

Revision to Common View on How Retinal Cells in Mammals Process Light
Scientists say that new experiments with mouse eye tissues strongly suggest that a longstanding 'textbook concept' about the way a mammal's retina processes light needs a ...
