Laser Treatment in Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment
Retinal laser is an essential tool in the treatment and prevention of retinal detachment (RD). Laser retinopexy to fuse the retina to the underlying... -
Application of Human Stem Cell Derived Retinal Organoids in the Exploration of the Mechanisms of Early Retinal Development
The intricate neural circuit of retina extracts salient features of the natural world and forms bioelectric impulse as the origin of vision. The...

Neurosensory Retinal Lesions
It is easier to diagnose lesions of the neurosensory retina if these are considered separately from those of the retinal pigment epithelium.... -
Pro-inflammatory activation changes intracellular transport of bevacizumab in the retinal pigment epithelium in vitro
PurposeBevacizumab is taken up and transported through the retinal pigment epithelium. Inflammatory signaling may influence this interaction. In the...
