Abstract:
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of vision loss. The primary clinical hallmarks are vascular changes that appear to contribute to the loss of sight. In a number of neurodegenerative disorders there is an appreciation that increased levels of excitatory amino acids are excitotoxic. The primary amino acid responsible appears to be the neurotransmitter glutamate. This review examines the nature of glutamatergic signaling at the retina and the growing evidence from clinical and animal model studies that glutamate may be playing similar excitotoxic roles at the diabetic retina.

However, diabetic ocular disease is not only characterized by diabetic retinopathy.

Abstract:
Hyperglycemia, a defining characteristic of diabetes, combined with oxidative stress, results in the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). AGEs are toxic compounds that have adverse effects on many tissues including the retina and lens. AGEs promote the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which, in turn, boost the production of AGEs, resulting in positive feedback loops, a vicious cycle that compromises tissue fitness. Oxidative stress and the accumulation of AGEs are etiologically associated with the pathogenesis of multiple diseases including diabetic retinopathy (DR).

The system provides a flexible platform for collaboration among clinicians about diabetic retinopathy. Methods

Abstract:
Diabetic retinopathy is a sight threatening complication of diabetes mellitus. Regular eye examinations by trained health professionals can help prevent this. Although ophthalmologists have screening responsibility in Norway today, Norwegian optometrists regularly examine the ocular health of a large part of the population. The exact number of people with diabetes in Norway is unknown, and many are likely undiagnosed. Optometrists should be able to detect and grade diabetic retinopathy and ensure proper management of these patients. Previous studies in Norway have shown that optometrists need

Abstract:
Introduction. The association between diabetes and cataract formation has been shown in many clinical studies. Development of cataract occurs more frequently and at an earlier age in diabetic patients. Due to the increasing prevalence of diabetes worldwide, the incidence of diabetic cataracts steadily rises. While the overall outcomes of cataract surgery are excellent, patients with diabetes may have poorer vision outcomes than those without diabetes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the visual outcomes (visual acuity and visual function), intraoperative and postoperative complicati

Abstract Thyroid eye disease (TED) is an unpredictable autoimmune inflammatory disease which can be sight-threatening, debilitating, and disfiguring. Teprotumumab (IV infusion every 3 weeks x 8 doses) was recently approved as the first and only FDA-approved drug for TED in 2020. Phase 2 and 3 studies showed significant improvement in proptosis, double vision, soft tissue inflammation and quality of life for patients with active moderate to severe TED. Side effects were experienced by 85% of patients on teprotumumab. Hearing loss symptoms were reported in 10% of patients and were reported to be

Abstract:
Astaxanthin is a red pigment that belongs to the carotenoid family like β-carotene. And it’s found in seafood such as crustaceans: shrimp and crabs and fish: salmon and sea bream. Recently, astaxanthin has been reported to have antioxidant activity up to 100 times more potent than that of vitamin E against lipid peroxidation and about 40 times more potent than that of β-carotene on singlet oxygen quenching. Astaxanthin does not show any pro-oxidant activity and its main sight of action is on/in the cell membrane. Various important benefits to date have suggested for human health such as immuno
