Predicting Visual Field Loss in Glaucoma Using OCT and Deep Learning: A Comparative Study of U-Net Variants
Glaucoma is a chronic eye disease that progressively damages the optic nerve, leading to irreversible visual field loss. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Visual Field (VF) tests are essential for monitoring structural and functional changes in glaucoma. This study applies three deep learning models—R2 U-Net, Dense U-Net, and Nested U-Net (UNet++)—to predict visual field … [Read more...] about Predicting Visual Field Loss in Glaucoma Using OCT and Deep Learning: A Comparative Study of U-Net Variants

SightGlass DOT myopia control lenses show no link to astigmatism
Children wearing SightGlass Vision Diffusion Optics Technology lenses had no increase in astigmatism compared with children wearing control lenses, according to studies presented at the Netherlands Contact Lens Congress.The study was conducted after other research suggested that astigmatism could increase with the use of peripheral defocus, the myopia control method used by … [Read more...] about SightGlass DOT myopia control lenses show no link to astigmatism
