I changed how I start my capsulorhexis this year. It's now one continuous motion with the cystitome rather than multiple attempts to flip the leaflet over. More predictable and efficient. Full video: youtu.be/E_9RT9dwNsE

Part 1/5: Semaglutide, a weight loss drug for diabetes & obesity, has been associated with Non-Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION). But is there a causal link? Let's take a closer look. youtu.be/PJv6kn_xatw?si…

Biallelic pathogenic variants in UBAP1L were identified in six probands with retinal dystrophies, establishing UBAP1L as a disease gene for inherited retinal diseases in humans. ja.ma/4gc8tuy

The m.11778G>A variant of the MT-ND4 gene causes Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), and the gene therapy lenadogene nolparvovec has shown sustained bilateral improvement in visual acuity and quality of life for up to 5 years in patients. ja.ma/3OZBZrR

Thrilled to share that I’ve officially passed the Step 1 exam! One chapter of this journey is complete, and many more lie ahead. Grateful for the lessons, the support, and the challenges. Wishing the best of luck to everyone with exams coming up! #USMLE #step1 #MedJourney #ECFMG

I have long held that PGAs don’t cause CME & that many glaucoma patients lose vision while being denied a PGA despite PGAs A+efficacy. Turns out PGAs have the lowest risk of causing CME. Thank you Dr. Zhou et al for this A+ paper. Let’s let dogma go. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39122155/#:~:t…).

Epithelial ingrowth after LASIK occurs when corneal epithelial cells migrate into the interface between the LASIK flap and the corneal bed. This can lead to various complications, including vision impairment, astigmatism, and even corneal melting. #MedTwitter #eyecareprofessional

Subhyaloid hemorrhage in macular area refers to a collection of blood between the posterior vitreous surface and the retina, specifically in the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision. This condition can lead to sudden & severe visual loss.

Central serous chorioretinopathy, where fluid builds up under retina. This can distort vision. The fluid leakage comes from a layer of tissue under retina, called  choroid. When RPE does not work, fluid builds up under RPE resulting in a small detachment and visual distortion.

CCRAVO, where both central retinal artery & vein are blocked, leading to severe vision loss & poor prognosis. It combines clinical features of both (CRAO & CRVO), such as ischemic retinal whitening, a cherry-red spot in macula, retinal hemorrhage, & dilated/tortuous retinal veins
