Summary: A retrospective study was conducted to compare the outcomes of vitrectomy with and without fovea-sparing internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling for highly myopic eyes with retinoschisis and foveal detachment. The results showed that fovea-sparing ILM peeling had better anatomical outcomes in resolving foveoschisis and foveal detachment compared to non-ILM peeling, while both procedures had similar visual functional outcomes.

Summary: This study described myopic nontractional foveal detachment associated with pachychoroid diseases. Pachychoroid features were common in both myopic central serous chorioretinopathy and myopic pachychoroid neovascularization. Treatment with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injection and/or photodynamic therapy had limited success in achieving complete response in affected eyes.

Summary: This study found that fundus autofluorescence can help differentiate purpose retinoschisis, rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, and combined retinoschisis retinal detachment. By observing the characteristics of autofluorescence in different types of eye diseases, it is possible to identify the distinct features of each disease.

Summary: This study reports a case of outer lamellar macular hole and outer retinal detachment within myopic foveoschisis after cataract surgery. The patient's left eye had a satisfactory visual outcome, while the right eye had poor vision with new macular complications. Conservative management was ineffective, and surgical intervention was refused by the patient.

Summary: The article discusses the characteristics, treatment history, success rates, and limitations of different surgical techniques for myopic traction maculopathy (MTM), as well as the recent study clarifying the pathogenesis, definition, and management. Additionally, the article introduces the MTM Staging System (MSS) table, which summarizes all stages of MTM and offers insights on the disease's pathogenesis and natural evolution. Furthermore, management guidelines are proposed, tailored to each stage of the disease.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of primary retinal detachment repair in retinoschisis-associated RD (RSRD) and rhegmatogenous RD (RRD). The study found that RSRD patients had a higher rate of primary repair failure, and even after adjusting for the failure, RSRD was still associated with worse final visual acuity. Pars plana vitrectomy with and without scleral buckle were both valid repair methods for RSRD. However, RSRD remains a challenging disease to treat.

Summary: This study characterized retinoschisis using SD-OCT, providing insights into rates of schisis detachment and macular involvement in cases of peripheral retinoschisis. The findings showed a high occurrence of peripheral retinoschisis and macular retinoschisis, with outer plexiform layer being the most commonly involved layer. This is the largest study on retinoschisis using SD-OCT.

Summary: This study demonstrates a modified technique for closing macular holes (MHs) concurrent with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in myopic eyes. The technique involves creating multiple inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flaps around the MH, which proved to be safe and efficient in MH closure.

Summary: The study used SS-OCTA to quantify retinal and choriocapillaris microvasculature in highly myopic eyes with myopic macular degeneration. The results showed that retinal perfusion density decreased with increasing severity of MMD, while choriocapillaris signal voids were mainly associated with eye axial length rather than MMD severity.

Summary: X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is an X-linked inherited retinal dystrophy with variable clinical features, including mild-to-severe visual impairment, splitting of the retinal layers, and reduced b-wave amplitude on the electroretinogram. Common features reported include retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, retinal pigment epithelial changes, vitreous veils, and retinal vascular abnormalities. Atypical presentations such as macular hole and macular folds are also observed. This report presents 4 cases of XLRS with atypical clinical features and provides a literature review on XLRS.

Summary: AOSLO imaging of the foveal avascular zone in MS patients revealed two distinct structures, with hyperreflective puncta associated with ocular perfusion and scattering features linked to advanced MS progression. Both features may impact visual function in MS patients independently of retinal ganglion cell injury.

Summary: This study examines the rates and trends of faculty promotions within the field of ophthalmology, with a focus on the rates of promotion among underrepresented in medicine (URiM) faculty. The results show that Black faculty had lower promotion rates and were more likely to leave academic medicine, highlighting the need for strategies and policies to address equity in promotion rates and retention of URiM faculty in academic ophthalmology.

Summary: Retinal drusen are uncommon in IgA nephropathy, but they resemble drusen found in age-related macular degeneration. The IgA-staining deposits in the drusen are likely related to systemic deposition of IgA. The nature of cystic spaces in the drusen is still unknown. Further research on the retinas of people with glomerulonephritis is recommended.

Summary: This study examines sociodemographic predictors of poor vision in children and adolescents in the US. The findings suggest that factors such as affordability of medical care, public health insurance, age, and parental education level are associated with vision difficulty. Addressing these disparities through public health policies is crucial for achieving equity in vision health.

Summary: The study investigated the phenotype, variability, and penetrance of IMPG2-related maculopathy. The results showed that mono-allelic IMPG2 variants could result in haploinsufficiency manifesting as a maculopathy with variable penetrance and expressivity. Family members of patients with IMPG2-related retinitis pigmentosa may also present with vitelliform lesions. The maculopathy is usually limited to the fovea and is associated with moderate visual impairment.

Summary: The study aimed to validate or refute the hypothesis that infants with birthweight over 750 g and gestational age over 27 weeks, who did not have retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) at 37 weeks, would not develop treatable ROP. The findings of the study supported the termination of examination at 37 weeks in infants meeting these criteria, as the value of continued screening was minimal.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the research productivity of ophthalmology residency applicants and identify differences in productivity based on gender and race. The findings reveal that women have similar or higher research outputs compared to men, while self-identified underrepresented in medicine (URiM) students have lower research outputs in ophthalmology. Therefore, greater mentorship and support for URiM students are needed to promote the recruitment of diverse trainees in ophthalmology programs.
