The 3-dimensional (3D) deep learning-based automated digital gonioscopy system (DGS) effectively identifies eyes with suspected primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG), demonstrating its potential for wide use in the primary eye care community for screening of patients at high risk of developing PACG, suggests a study.

In patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), the presence of intraretinal fluid (IRF) and subretinal hyper-reflective material (SHRM) seem to increase the likelihood of subretinal fibrosis (SF), a recent study has found.
