To identify CNGA3 mutations, Li et al examine clinical data and genomic DNA in 267 Chinese probands from 138 families with cone dystrophies and 129 families with Leber congenital amaurosis. They study variants in CNGA3 and associated phenotypes, assessed by Sanger sequencing of CNGA3, bioinformatics of variants, and segregation analysis.

Mrejen et al propose a classification of acute zonal occult outer retinopathy (AZOOR) based on clinical fundus and multimodal imaging. They performed a retrospective review of patients diagnosed as having AZOOR or AZOOR complex and assembled 30 cases. Multimodal imaging had been performed in most patients at the initial visit or at subsequent follow-up visits.

Marmor and Hu determine the relationship between progression of retinopathy and the severity of disease, using objective data from optical coherence tomography, and assess the value of early screening for the toxic effects of hydroxychloroquine.

Bressler et al evaluate the reproducibility of retinal thickness measurements from optical coherence tomography (OCT) images obtained by time-domain instruments and formulate equations to convert retinal thickness measurements from spectral-domain OCT to equivalent values on time-domain OCT.
