Curious about how bad nighttime driving is in patients with FECD? Read more about our study in collaboration with @UIowaDSRI here ⤵
Driving in the Dark: Fuchs’ Patients Have Reduced Nighttime Vision Despite Normal VA In a small pilot study, these individuals had to be nearly twice as close to roadside hazards to recognize them. reviewofoptometry.com/articl… #fuchsdystrophy #fuchs #optometry #cornea

Aqueous IL-6 levels rise with diabetic retinopathy severity and correlate with DME. This largest prospective study to date suggests IL-6 may be a real-time biomarker and therapeutic target for diabetic retinopathy: 10.1016/j.oret.2025.06.014 #DiabeticRetinopathy #TheLens

We quantified driving performance in FECD compared to controls with similar VA (~20/20) and contrast sensitivity. FECD pts had significantly worse driving performance and reacted to roadside hazards nearly 10x slower than someone at the legal BAC (0.08%) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4040…
