🚨 New Publication Alert! 🚨 Our first paper of the year is out in Ophthalmology @AAOjournal! We analyzed 1351 eyes with geographic atrophy (GA) from AREDS & AREDS2 over 4 years to uncover key drivers of BCVA decline: 🔹 Baseline BCVA 🔹 GA proximity to the foveal center 🔹 GA growth rate We also developed a 3-step approach to stratify 4-year BCVA loss risk & identify who may benefit most from current/future treatment—a step forward in GA care & clinical trial design! Grateful to my mentors & collaborators for their support! 📖 Read more: aaojournal.org/article/S0161-… #Ophthalmology #GeographicAtrophy #VisionResearch #BCVA #MedicalResearch

Honored for the @RPB_org recognition @AUPOphth! Thanks to all my mentors, especially Deeba Husain @pnatarajanmd @InesLains @LizzyRossin @DrZebardast for their guidance, & @HMSeye leadership for their support! More to come on HDL genes & AMD! @broadinstitute @MassEyeAndEar

Congratulations @LinusShenMD for matching at Duke! Fantastic fit. #dukegang #dukealumni
Linus Shen, MD@LinusShenMD

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve matched into my first-choice vitreoretinal surgery fellowship at Duke! The first photo was taken 10 years ago, when I was an undergraduate at Duke assisting with intraoperative OCT that we developed and observing Dr. Cynthia Toth teach retina fellows in the OR. That's when I knew I wanted to become a VR surgeon and a scientist like her. The second photo is from today, during Dr. Toth’s visit to UCSF. She delivered a named lecture on intraoperative OCT and her career journey. This moment truly brings things full circle, and I can’t wait to begin my VR fellowship at Duke! I'm so grateful to my amazing mentors along the way!

Excited to present a paper at #AAO2024 this Sunday. I’ll be sharing our findings on key factors contributing to visual acuity decline in patients with GA, and discussing which patients may benefit their visual acuity most from therapies that slow GA progression. @aao_ophth

The National Eye Institute is crucial for eye health innovation. @HouseCommerce must keep NEI independent to continue its work for patients. We urge Congress to boost NEI funding and improve vision health for Americans. ow.ly/EtI850T7VmW #EyeCareAdvocacy

In collaboration with @MariyaMoosajee, we used BETR method to study ellipsoid zone width in #USH2A. We found EZ width declines exponentially, and the log-transformed rate required 48% fewer patients for a 1-year trial (38 vs 73). @bmj_latest #RP #MedTwitter

Thanks to our very clever statistical colleagues we have been able to #BETR understand disease progression of the ellipsoid zone in patients with #USH2A #RP #UsherSyndrome 👉🏼 bjo.bmj.com/content/bjopht…… @BMJ_Ophth @CUREUsher

The insert holds a 90D lens, Digital wide field lens, 20D lens, 28D lens, large G4 gonio lens, scleral depressor, and a lens cleaning cloth in a VOLK large multi lens case. #profileId-508918" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">makerworld.com/en/models/5877…

I've always wanted to find a better way to carry everything in my multi-lens case. So I designed and 3D printed an insert to hold all my lenses, a scleral depressor, and a lens cloth in a @VolkOptical case. Below is the link to my model. #ophthalmology #MedTwitter
