👁️🔍 How much monovision is ideal? Our study shows that targeting ≥−1.0 D in the nondominant eye after bilateral enhanced monovision IOL implantation improves near/intermediate vision & spectacle independence—without sacrificing QoV. #IOL #Ophthalmology #Monovision

🌎👁️ How common is glaucoma in Latin America? Our systematic review & meta-analysis finds a 4% pooled prevalence in the general population—highlighting a public health concern, with limited data available. #Glaucoma #PublicHealth #MetaAnalysis 🔗mdpi.com/3298766

🧠💻 How do visual backgrounds shape decision-making in telepsychology? Our study shows patients prefer natural, moderately complex settings, with preferences varying by age and gender. #Telepsychology #eHealth #EnvironmentalPsychology #UXDesign 🔗mdpi.com/3300526

👁️🧠 Dyslexia and proprioception—what's the link? Our review highlights how ocular & general proprioceptive dysfunctions, both day and night, may impact reading, attention, and brain development in dyslexic children. #Dyslexia #Neuroscience 🔗mdpi.com/3319382

🧠🚫 Highly viewed paper Aphantasia: When the mind’s eye goes blank This systematic review unpacks key findings, debates, and future research directions—from neural mechanisms to theoretical models. #Aphantasia #MentalImagery #Neuroscience #Psychology 🔗mdpi.com/2965840

👁️🔬 Can a small aperture IOL help post-RK patients? Our study predicts a 70% reduction in HOAs with a 1.6 mm pinhole IOL, plus improved vision. A promising option for RK-related visual distortion. #Ophthalmology #IOL #RadialKeratotomy #VisionScience 🔗mdpi.com/3334304

👁️🕵️ How do we hide—and reveal—images in plain sight? This study explores how monocular and binocular vision reveal concealed images through contrast, spatial frequency, and stereoscopic depth. #VisionScience #Perception #Stereopsis #VisualIllusions 🔗mdpi.com/3341216

📖👀 Can eye movements predict reading success? Our study finds oculomotor measures (not just visual acuity) strongly predict reading acquisition in first graders—highlighting the need for comprehensive eye exams. #Vision #Reading #Oculomotor #Education 🔗mdpi.com/3343266

👁️ Higher mortality in NVG surgery Patients with neovascular glaucoma had greater all-cause mortality than those with primary open-angle glaucoma after surgery. #Glaucoma #Ophthalmology 🔗mdpi.com/3356288

🧠✨ Brain State Matters! Customizing TMS to the brain’s condition boosts recovery in cortical blindness & amblyopia #Neurorehab #TMS #VisionScience mdpi.com/3367752

👁️ New study alert! We built a computerised #PupilCycleTime test to spot subtle changes in retino-pupillary circuits—revealing patterns in AMD, DR, RP & LHON. Toward earlier, more precise eye disease detection! 🔬 📄mdpi.com/3381674

👁️ Evidence-based IOL constant optimization in novice #CataractSurgery improved outcomes from 65.7%→95% within ±0.50 D—matching top prediction models. Supports adding optimization to #MedEd curricula. #Ophthalmology #IOL 🔗mdpi.com/3387580

🧠✨ People with more vivid mental imagery (high VVIQ) show sharper visual short-term memory & larger hippocampi + V1 cortex. MRI reveals up to 11% bigger brain regions—57% in extreme cases (hyperphantasia vs. aphantasia). #Neuroscience #Aphantasia #VVIQ mdpi.com/3392586

💧 First Phase I/II RCT of insulin nanoemulsion eye drops in Sjögren’s dry eye. Rigorous double-masked design, novel drug delivery, strong safety profile—paving the way for larger efficacy trials. #DryEye #Sjogrens #ClinicalTrials #Ophthalmology mdpi.com/3395884

🔬 TransPRK for hyperopia/mixed astigmatism: Post-op outcomes excellent (SE ≤0.5D: 93%; ≤1D: 98%). Findings refine understanding of epithelial impact in refractive correction. 🔗mdpi.com/3399614 #Ophthalmology #TransPRK #Astigmatism

🔬 New study: Preoperative conjunctival vascularity influences outcomes of trabeculectomy with MMC. Lower vessel density → favorable bleb formation & fewer postoperative interventions. Higher density → Higher complication risk. #Glaucoma #Ophthalmology 🔗mdpi.com/3402118

📢Multicenter study: 3rd-gen trabecular micro-bypass (iStent® infinite) + phacoemulsification shows sustained IOP and medication reduction, reinforcing its clinical value in glaucoma management. #Glaucoma #MIGS #Ophthalmology 🔗mdpi.com/3410504
