A post hoc analysis of the GATHER1 and GATHER2 data suggested that the ellipsoidal zone (EZ) may hold the key to identifying patients experiencing fast and slow progression of geographic atrophy (GA). This knowledge should allow for early intervention to save the photoreceptors, according to Asmita Indurkar, MD, who reported at the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology 2025 annual meeting in Salt Lake City.

A study conducted in India reported that swept-source anterior-segment optical coherence tomography (SS AS-OCT) is a valuable tool to identify early-onset childhood glaucoma and help differentiate it from other conditions.1Led by Sushmita Kaushik, MS, she and her colleagues explained that while primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) is rare, it is an important cause of visual loss in children.

An investigation into incomplete retinal pigment epithelial and outer retinal atrophy (iRORA) identified a wide spectrum of fundus autofluorescence (FAF) patterns that corresponded with iRORA lesions and that those patterns were associated with conversion to complete RORA (cRORA) over time. First author Giulia Corradetti, MD, reported the study findings at the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology 2025 annual meeting in Salt Lake City.
