UWF imaging could help to monitor disease progression in patients with Alzheimers
UWF imaging could help to monitor disease progression in patients with Alzheimers
6/27/2018

Researchers from Queen’s University Belfast have shown for the first time that the eye could be a surrogate for brain degeneration like Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

These research results have recently been published in the Journal of Ophthalmic Research and is the first clinical study showing a potential for peripheral retinal imaging to be used in monitoring AD and potentially other neurodegenerative diseases.

The team, led by Dr Imre Lengyel, Senior Lecturer and Researcher at the School of Medicine Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences at Queen’s University have found that by examining the eye we might be able to reflect on what might be taking place in the brain.

The work was carried out alongside health professionals and care providers for AD patients and explored whether there are manifestations of AD in the eye.

Based on laboratory observations the team hypothesized that changes in the peripheral retina could be important to explore the association between the eye and the brain.

Using ultra-widefield imaging technology developed by Optos Plc, the team found that there are indeed several changes that seem to be, especially in the peripheral retina, associated with this debilitating condition.

Ophthalmology Retina - A Prospective Randomized Comparative Dosing Trial of Ranibizumab in Bevacizumab-Resistant Diabetic Macular Edema
3/5/2018

After conversion to ranibizumab (from bevacizumab) in eyes with persistent DME refractory to bevacizumab, significant functional and anatomic improvements were noted.  Qualitative analysis of ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography images was performed to identify retinal vascular pathologic features, specifically by observing the presence of vascular leakage, neovascularization, macular ischemia, and peripheral ischemia.  The prevalence of macular ischemia was 33.3% at baseline and remained stable at study completion. Finally, the proportion of peripheral ischemia observed in participants increased from 66.7% at baseline to 70.3% at month 12, although the incidence of any leakage remained stable at month 12.

Retina - Utility of Ultra-widefield Retinal Imaging for the Staging and Management of Sickle Cell Retinopathy
1/30/2018

Prospective, observational study including patients with sickle cell disease. All patients underwent dilated fundus examination by a fellowship-trained retina specialist, as well as UWF fundus photography (FF) and fluorescein angiography (FA). Sickle retinopathy stage and treatment recommendation per eye were determined after clinical examination, UWF-FF, and UWF-FA, respectively, and differences in retinopathy stage and treatment recommendation were compared.

Conclusion: Ultra-widefield imaging detects a higher stage of sickle cell retinopathy compared with clinical examination alone, but these differences may not be clinically significant.

BMC Ophthalmology - The application of wide-field laser ophthalmoscopy in fundus examination before myopic refractive surgery
12/18/2017

optomap examinations are a convenient and feasible method to determine fundus pathological changes in myopic patients, especially for patients who can not endure pupil dilation. Compared to the Goldmann three-mirror contact lens examination, the detection rate with optomap was 91.73%% for retinal lesions, while the detection rate of mydriatic slit-lamp lens exams was 81.20%.

OSLI - Non-Mydriatic Ultra-Widefield Imaging Compared With Single-Field Imaging in the Evaluation of Peripheral Retinal Pathology
12/18/2017

In a primary health care clinic, 632 healthy subjects underwent UWF imaging during annual health screening.  optomap images detected peripheral retinal pathology in 18.4% that was not visible on corresponding single-field (45°) images.  UWF imaging is feasible in a primary care setting, allows improved visualization of peripheral retinal pathology, and may therefore be useful for telemedicine screening.

AJO - Peripheral pigmented retinal lesions in Stargardt disease

Clinical Ophthalmology - Telemedicine for diabetic retinopathy screening using an ultra-widefield fundus camera
11/15/2017

The present study (1,024 subjects) has shown the effectiveness of DR screening using UWF fundus camera detecting 9.27% of patients with DR. It has also shown the effectiveness of trained nursing personnel taking fundus pictures. First, UWF imaging has a fast learning curve and it is quick to take the picture. Second, widefield view is greater than the 7-field photography enabling more DR lesions to be detected. And third, images can be manipulated in terms of red-free, infra-red and image zoom. Hence, the present telemedicine model has demonstrated that in a multi-specialty private hospital, DR screening can be effective using UWF fundus camera.

Ocular Immunology and Inflammation - The Impact and Implication of Peripheral Vascular Leakage in UWFFA in Uveitis
11/15/2017

Peripheral vascular leakage (PVL) is a possible independent driver of treatment augmentation. Patients with PVL were four-times more likely to have treatment augmented after adjusting for baseline presence of CME, diffuse vascular leakage and clinical grading of uveitis activity. This suggests that PVL may have influenced the decision to augment therapy in patients.

Ocular Immunology and Inflammation - Ultra-Widefield Fluorescein Angiography in Intermediate Uveitis
11/15/2017

UWFFA identifies retinal vascular pathology in intermediate uveitis not present on clinical examination. Diffuse retinal vascular leakage was associated with worse visual acuity when compared to peripheral and no leakage patterns.

Ophthalmic Epidemiology - Can ultra-wide field retinal imaging replace colour digital stereoscopy for glaucoma detection?
11/15/2017

Optos, plc – 25 years of saving sight and saving lives
9/27/2017

This year is the 25th anniversary for Optos.  With such a significant milestone, it is customary to reflect on the journey. It all began when Douglas Anderson, our Founder set out to commercialize a patient-friendly product that encompassed a digital widefield image of the retina in a single capture. His young son, Leif was the impetus behind this mission. Whilst he had been receiving regular eye exams, the doctor was unable to examine Leif’s entire retina and he became blind in one eye when a peripheral retinal detachment went undetected. From that point on, the mission of saving sight and saving lives was engrained in the fabric of our culture and has become the cornerstone of our vision to be The Retina Company.

9/11/2017

Specific AMD features in UWF images were graded. Standardised grids were used to record the spatial location of AMD features, including RPD. We found no evidence to support an association between coronary artery disease and RPD. RPD was strongly associated with intermediate AMD features.  

Refining Coats' disease by ultra-widefield imaging and optical coherence tomography angiography
9/5/2017

Demonstrated that Coats' disease is a highly asymmetric bilateral disease and that UWF imaging is able to identify more retinal pathology than standard fundus imaging, thus guiding proper retinal photocoagulation. All clinically affected eyes exhibited retinal pathology at UWF imaging with the temporal sector most involved followed by the inferior, nasal, superior and macula.
