The RNFL formed by the expansion of the fibers of the optic nerve; it is thickest near the optic disc, gradually diminishing toward the ora serrata. As the nerve fibers pass through the lamina cribrosa sclerae they lose their medullary sheaths and are continued onward through the choroid and retina as simple axis-cylinders.
The deviation map reveals the location and magnitude of RNFL thinning relative to a normal value. This normal value was generated as an average of people from various cultures. Defects are colour-coded based on probability of normality (e.g. yellow means that the probability is below 5% of that RNFL at that location is normal).
In a study of 123 subjects with vision loss due to early stage giant cell arteritis, one-third of subjects had cotton wool spots present in their eyes. [2] Furthermore, because giant cell arteritis can lead to loss of vision and is associated with cotton wool spots, it is recommended to investigate for giant cell arteritis if cotton wool spots ...
The following table describes the IENFD values in males and females of a 3 mm biopsy 10 cm above the lateral malleolus (above ankle outer side of leg). [21] Any value measured below the 0.05 Quantile IENFD values per age span, is considered a reliable positive diagnosis for small fiber peripheral neuropathy.
Quarterly adjusted loss per share was $5.90, compared with expectations of a $3 loss per share. Cash burn was $14.3 billion in 2024, compared with a cash flow of $4.43 billion in 2023.
Köllner's Rule is a term used in ophthalmology and optometry that pertains to the progressive nature of color vision loss that is secondary to eye disease. This rule states that outer retinal diseases and media changes result in blue-yellow color defects, while diseases of the inner retina, optic nerve, visual pathway, and visual cortex will result in red-green defects.
Stress: Stress-induced hair loss is known as telogen effluvium, and it typically occurs a few months after a stressful event, like an illness, a breakup, or the loss of a loved one. With this, you ...
