Out now! An important paper raising the issue of under-registration of visual impairment in England for patients with diabetic retinopathy. Even with busy clinics, we need to consider patients with DR as visually impaired, as many of them are.
Out now on @BMJ_Ophth 📣 Our study, led by @abraham_olvera1, analysing the prevalence of visual impairment compared to certification of visual impairment (CVI) in patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR). https://t.co/AdzXDc8CVc

An important study from our group, shedding light on macular curvature and an important step in macular and myopia research. Out now!
📣Out now on @ARVOiovs! Using an automated machine learning model, we analysed the macular curvature on OCT in 65,023 subjects from the @uk_biobank. 🧵 1/4 https://t.co/wsnI9dVPTy

How common is common? New insights into Macular Curvature and Dome-Shaped Configuration based on data from the unique UK Biobank. This may open new fields to future #myopia and #macula research! @RetinaDiscovery

A useful summary for retina clinicians to help them make the right choices for their patients when using OCTA
Our new editorial was just published! 📣 OCTA has become an invaluable tool in our daily clinics as retina specialists. It shines the most in the diagnosis of macular neovascularisation (MNV) associated with #AMD. https://t.co/qHR6YSbMwH

It includes information about the diagnostic accuracy of OCTA in #nAMD, its use as a tool to confirm the diagnosis, patient follow-up, and diagnosis of the elusive non-exudative MNV.
