Correlation Between Localized Choriocapillaris Perfusion and Macular Function in Eyes with Geographic Atrophy: Choriocapillaris Flow Relates to Macular Function in AMD with GA
American Journal of Ophthalmology
See publicationTo test the hypothesis that choriocapillaris perfusion correlates with visual function in geographic atrophy (GA).
-
OCT Angiography to Predict Geographic Atrophy Progression using Choriocapillaris Flow Void as a Biomarker
Translational Vision Science & Technology
See publicationTo investigate the relationship between choriocapillaris (CC) flow void (FV) percentage and geographic atrophy (GA) growth rate, and study how variations in FV percentage surrounding GA predict regional GA growth.
-
Anesthesia for Intravitreal Injection: A Systematic Review
Clinical Ophthalmology
See publicationThe goal of this systematic review is to review approaches to anesthesia for intravitreal injection and look at comparative efficacy between these different anesthetics.

Cone Structure Persists Beyond Margins of Short-Wavelength Autofluorescence in Choroideremia
Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science
See publicationWe studied the relationship between structure and function of the choriocapillaris (CC), retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and photoreceptors in patients with choroideremia (CHM).
-
Quantifying Choriocapillaris Flow Voids in Patients With Geographic Atrophy Using Swept-Source OCT Angiography
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina
See publicationTo compare choriocapillaris (CC) flow voids (FVs) throughout the macula in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and geographic atrophy (GA) to age-similar controls using swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA).
-
Quantifying choriocapillaris hypoperfusion in patients with choroidal neovascularization using swept-source OCT angiography
Clinical Ophthalmology
See publicationTo compare choriocapillaris flow voids (FV) in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with age-matched normal controls using swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA).

Loss of Foveal Cone Structure Precedes Loss of Visual Acuity in Patients With Rod-Cone Degeneration
Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science
See publicationTo assess the relationship between cone spacing and visual acuity in eyes with rod-cone degeneration (RCD) followed longitudinally.
-
Cone Spacing Correlates With Retinal Thickness and Microperimetry in Patients With Inherited Retinal Degenerations
Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science
See publicationTo determine whether high-resolution retinal imaging measures of macular structure correlate with visual function over 36 months in retinal degeneration (RD) patients and normal subjects.
-
OCT Angiography and Cone Photoreceptor Imaging in Geographic Atrophy
Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science
See publicationTo compare cone spacing and choriocapillaris (CC) perfusion adjacent to geographic atrophy (GA) in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and age-similar normal eyes.
-
High-resolution Imaging in Male Germ Cell-Associated Kinase (MAK)-related Retinal Degeneration
American Journal of Ophthalmology
See publicationTo describe the characteristics of MAK-related retinal degeneration using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO).
-
Correlation of cone spacing with retinal thickness and microperimetry in patients with inherited retinal degenerations and healthy subjects
Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science
See publicationThe current study proposes to use high resolution measures of macular structure and function over 36 months in patients with retinal degeneration (RD) and age-similar normal subjects.
