Evolution of Visual Impairment During Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum

Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum is a disease whom frequency is estimated about 1/50000 to 1/100 000. There is a female preponderance with a sex-ratio of 2:1. PXE is transmitted according either to an autosomal dominant mode or to an autosomal recessive one. Mutations in the ABCC6 gene on chromosome 16p13.1 have recently been identified causing PXE. The elastic fibers slowly become mineralized mainly in the skin, the eyes, and the cardiovascular system. PXE is a multisystem disease that includes a spectrum of clinical manifestations affecting the skin, the eye or the cardiovascular system as well as other tissues. It can be responsible for severe and life threatening complications. Skin changes are usually the first manifestations and begin in early childhood. The vital prognosis of PXE depends on the severity of the cardiovascular lesions that could be responsible for sudden death in children and young adults. Ocular manifestations are quite constant and include chorioretinal scarring, pigmentary changes or angioid streaks. The natural evolution of the angioid streaks leads to their enlargement or to the occurrence of subfoveal choroidal neovascularizations and hemorrhages leaving macular scares. A self-monitoring is recommended since early treatment of subfoveal CNV is the only way to minimize their pejorative consequences. The gold standard treatment of the CNV consists in the photocoagulation. New therapeutics has been developed including photodynamic therapy or intravitreal injection of anti-angiogenic agents and they seems to be effective to reduce the immediate complications of a limited CNV. This evolution explains that 50 to 70 % of the patients have a poor vision or legal blindness of one or both eyes. However, little is known about the age of occurrence of visual impairment in PXE patients. That is the reason why we decided to review the ophthalmologic status and visual history of our population of PXE patients according to their age.

Predictors of Driving Performance and Successful Mobility - Rehabilitation in Patients With Medical...

Low Vision

There are two diseases in particular that may have serious consequences for driving and mobility due to their potentially severe impact on visual function: glaucoma and diabetic neuropathy. In this project we will develop predictive models of driving for these patients and will train them to use low-vision aids to improve driving mobility. We will determine how best to train patients with hemianopic field loss due to cerebral vascular accidents and identify predictors of long-term success in the use of low-vision aids.

Behavioral Dynamics Between Infants With Visual Loss and Healthy Controls

Behavioral DynamicsVisual Impairment

An individual senses the world and reflects feedbacks via independent behaviors. Such precise collaboration of the sensory and behavioral systems is fundamental to survival and evolution. When a sensory modality is altered, the behavioral system has the potential to fit in a substitute modality. However, the specific dynamics of human behaviors in response to sensory loss remain largely unknown due to the paucities of representative situations and large-scale samples. Here, the investigators focused on thousands of human infants who suffered varying degrees of visual stimuli deficiency in early stages, while their behavioral systems remained sensitive and thus retained high behavioral plasticity. Having access to this unique population provides an unprecedented opportunity to investigate the effect of diverse visual conditions on the behavioral system.

Diabetic Retinopathy and Visual Function Study

Diabetic RetinopathyMacular Degeneration2 more

The purpose of this study is to evaluate possible mechanisms of central visual loss in patients with diabetes mellitus. The visual loss of interest to be investigated is that associated with macular edema (prior to and following laser photocoagulation treatment) and that associated with panretinal photocoagulation. The evaluation will be performed with psychophysical testing, i.e., static perimetry and contrast sensitivity function. Of particular interest, the mechanisms of visual loss associated with macular edema (prior to and following laser photocoagulation) will be further investigated. Photoreceptor-mediated visual loss will be assessed by measurements of the Stiles-Crawford effect. Visual loss mediated by post-receptoral retinal changes will be assessed by measuring the Westheimer spatial desensitization/sensitization effect.

Efficacy of Enhancing Low Vision Mobility Thru Visual Training in Virtual World

Low Vision

Low vision patients have difficulty acquiring sufficient visual information in a timely manner for the purpose of performing challenging daily tasks, such as traveling independently and safely through busy streets. The advance of virtual reality techniques has provided a potential platform for training low vision patients to use their remaining vision more efficiently, but the key issue is always whether the patient's visual experiences in a virtual world can be transferred to the real world. The proposed study is designed to provide definite answer to this question.

Multimodal Analysis and Electroretinogram in VKH From Acute Onset - Part I

Uveomeningoencephalitic SyndromeInflammation2 more

Patients with acute onset Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease (VKHD) was prospectively included in this study. They were systematically followed with clinical, posterior segment imaging exams and full-field electroretinogram during a minimum 24-month of follow-up. All patients were treated with 3-day methylprednisolone pulse therapy followed by 1mg/day oral prednisone with a slow tapper during a median of 13 months. Non-steroidal immunosuppressive therapy (IMT) was introduced in cases of refractory disease or in cases of prednisone intolerance. Outcome measured by full-field electroretinogram was analyzed and patient was grouped as electroretinogram stable or electroretinogram worsening. Clinical data was analyzed in these two electroretinogram-based groups.
