Retinal Tissue Perfusion in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis.

abstract：PURPOSE:To evaluate central corneal thickness (CCT) and corneal volume (CV) in healthy eyes using swept source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (SS-AS-OCT) and other devices. METHODS:Thirty-three healthy right eyes of 33 subjects were investigated. CCT was measured with SS-AS-OCT, rotating Scheimpflug cam...

abstract：PURPOSE:Maintaining mature and viable retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE) in vitro has proven challenging. Investigating compounds that can promote RPE-viability and maturation is motivated by RPE transplantation research, the quest to understand RPE physiology, and a desire to modulate RPE in pathological states. W...
