Excited to announce our analysis of DRCR Protocol AC (Avastin first vs. Eylea only for Diabetic Macular Edema). Eylea only subjects achieved absence of DME and very good vision ~3 months sooner, suggesting a downside to step therapy with Avastin first. authors.elsevier.com/a/1mlm%7E8nJeI…

In patients with high genetic risk for #AMD progression, healthy lifestyle behaviors could still lower risk of advanced AMD. 55-60% of development of advanced AMD is due to these lifestyle factors. Presented by Joanna Seddon at #RSLisbon2024 @RetinaSociety

Use of levodopa was associated with 32% reduced development of new-onset geographic atrophy. It may dilate choroidal vasculature or reduce oxidative stress. However difficult to determine effect of Parkinson’s. Presented by Jeremy Lavine at #RSLisbon2024 @RetinaSociety

Metformin use shown to be associated with lower risk of new #AMD and dry AMD. Presentation at #RSLisbon2024 by Dmitra Skondra shows association between metformin use and 47% reduced odds of geographic atrophy in patients without diabetes @RetinaSociety

Faricimab associated with greater reductions in pigment epithelial detachment. Better early drying of fluid associated with greater likelihood of extension to 16 weeks. Over 50% could have been extended to 20 weeks. Terrific talks at #RSLisbon2023 @RetinaSociety @TheIVIpodcast

Phase 2 subretinal gene therapy of ABBV-RGX-314 in previously treated wet AMD showed good tolerance with few cases of inflammation responsive to steroid drops + stable vision and edema with over 70% injection free over 6 mos. @allenho #RSLisbon2024 @RetinaSociety @Wills_Eye

Genome wide association study found central serous retinopathy was associated with vascular endothelial protein tyrosine phosphatase which is modulated by faricimab. @LizzyRossin presented a small case series showing fluid resolution with faricimab injections #RSLisbon2024

Smaller ellipsoid zone lesion size, younger age, and lack of foveal involvement portended a greater reduction in disease progression with NT-501 (encapsulated cell technology) for macular telangiectasis type 2. Presented by Anthony Capone at #RSLisbon2024 @RetinaSociety

Very interesting study by @GlennYiuMD at #RSLisbon2024 about modifying rod photoreceptors to be more cone-like in order to mitigate retinal pigment epithelial atrophy in a geographic atrophy animal model. @RetinaSociety

Thanks @SArepalliMD @RetinalPhys for highlighting our study which found that cumulative endophthalmitis risk seems to decrease with greater number of intravitreal injections. Check out the article for some of our hypotheses

📣Attention Retina docs, your input is needed! @asrsdocs has proposed a Focused Practice Designation in Medical/Surgical Retina to the ABO.🚀 First time a subspecialty could receive such designation in #ophthalmology. Public comment open til 1/26/24. abms.org/cocert-invites… 🌐👁️
