The aim of this study is to investigate whether skin autofluorescence (AF) is predictive of postoperative PVR (and corresponding surgical failure) in patients being surgically treated for retinal detachment and to investigate some pathways which may…
The objective of this study is to establish normative data on OCT in children between the ages of 4 to 10.
Development and validation of the D-AI KIDS and the D-AI YA:Currently there is no standardized instrument that measures visually impaired children*s and young adults' participation based on the nine ICF-CY domains. The primary objective of this…
The objective of the study is to map in a standardized way the phenotype of carriers with known LHON mutations. We want to study the natural course of persons with LHON mutations by examining patients several times. Further, we want to study a…
To study neuronal and ophthalmological characteristics of a newly detected clinical entity called slow vision which hampers visual perception and attention of the affected patients.
We aim to investigate whether a relation between intestinal microbiota composition, mucosal integrity and translocation of bacteria into adipose tissue of the affected eye is related to the severity of Graves orbitopathy.
1. To determine if zinc supplementation in AMD patients has a direct measurable effect on the complement system explaining the mechanism through which this substance exerts its influence on AMD progression.2. To determine whether this proposed…
Development, optimization and implementation of retro-orbital fibroblast cultures in our laboratory.
The aim of this study is to determine whether the hydration status influences the RNFL thickness.
This study has the following goals: 1. Generation of normative values for full-field ERGs within single recording sessions according to ISCEV standard.2. To compare function (results of full-field ERG) with anatomy (retinal thickness on OCT) in…
The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the prevalence of visual field defects in formerly eclamptic women. The secondary objective is to compare the vision-related quality of life between formerly eclamptic and normotensive parous…
To identify eyes that show worsening and disease progression (progressor phenotypes). Primary ObjectiveTo identify *progressors* in retinal vascular disease and central retinal edema in type 2 diabetic patients with early NPDR, based on retinal…
To investigate if a vitamin B12 deficiency has a higher prevalence in LHON patients, during the acute phase of visual loss, then in a normal population.
In the present study, we will investigate if a monocular visual field defect - due to primary open angle glaucoma - influences the anatomical integrity of the visual pathways.
In this study, we will systematically investigate the influence of distractors on target processing in patients with Duane Syndrome. These patients are impaired in executing eye movements in horizontal directions. It will be investigated whether a…
This study aims to gain insights in the pathogenesis of idiopathic orbital inflammation, with ultimately a directer and more effective therapy.
the study aims to answer the following question:are components of innate immunity in general, and the complementsystem in particular, correlated with and usefull as predictors for the occurrence of macro- and/or microvascular complications in a high…
The main objective of this study is to demonstrate whether the number of patients with symptoms of dry eyes is significantly higher in patients with ptosis.
To investigate if there is an association with the R142W mutation in the RDS gene in a group of dry AMD patients from the North Limburg region
Measurement of the growth of the eye of children with unilateral cataract.
