Primary: To explore the diagnostic value to distinguish PAF and MSA of a variety of tests: corneal confocal microscopy optical coherence tomography (OCT) to measure the retinal nerve fibre layer thickness and total macular volume, corneal…
Assess raytracing algorithms in determining the refractive properties of the eye. This method is also applied to cataract patients and, therefore, a secondary objective is to determine the effects of surgical incisions on ocular refractive…
Of each new device it is unknown what the validity is and what the differences (advantages and disadvantages) are compared to the daily used devices.The aim of this study is to answer the question: What is the validity and are the objective benefits…
The main objective is to establish whether a relationship can be demonstrated between the amount of light scattered at the post-operative corneal interface on the one hand and visual acuity and contrast sensitivity on the other. In addition, changes…
Evaluation of pre-operative parameters in order to ascertain the need for a keratoplasty after cataract surgery has been performed in eyes with Fuchs* endothelial dystrophy.
Our research proposal has several aims: 1) We propose to use large-scale genetic studies to identify allelic variants that influence the development of AMD, which will enable the development of diagnostic and prognostic tools in the near future. 2)…
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
The aim of this study is to use different non-invasieve techniques to measure the spatial distribution of the macular pigment and its possibly relation with retinal structure and contrast sensitivity.
- Development of FCSPCO.- Determine if straylight is a reliable parameter for FCSPCO.
• In this pilot study, PS-OCT is used to image differences in fibrillary ocular structures associated with disease in patients with glaucoma, high myopia, exudative age-related macular degeneration with a suspicion of subretinal fibrosis and…
To investigate whether mutations in genes associated with lipid metabolism are a risk factor for retinal pathology such as the early formation of drusen
To investigate whether tear biomarkers can differentiate between patients and controls, and between patient groups.
Primary Objective: Non- invasive determination of the oxygenation values and the haemoglobin concentration of retinal arteries and veins by means of retinal imaging.
