Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

E91- Inherited Retinal Disorders- Progress Promise and Lessons— Dr. Ioannis Dimopoulos
Q: Are there non-genetic treatments for these genetic diseases?
Yes, RNA therapies like anti-sense oligonucleotides show promise in certain retinal disorders, and there are also ongoing studies using antioxidants like N-acetylcysteine to combat oxidative stress.
E85-EyeNovation Webinar- Double Layer Sign- Dr. Usha Chakravarthy
Q: Why was OCT angiography not included as one of the diagnostic modalities?
It was too early; by the time the study had funding and approval, the number of sites with OCTA was limited.
E85-EyeNovation Webinar- Double Layer Sign- Dr. Usha Chakravarthy
Q: Were you surprised that so many of the patients already had DLS at baseline or had IE at baseline?
Not at all. These are all patients who have already got neovascular AMD in their first eye.
E87- Pachychoroid Disease Spectrum- A deep Dive- Dr. Angie Fong
Q: What are the top differential diagnoses for fluid under the retina?
Key differentials include AMD, and multimodal imaging should be utilized to clarify whether the condition is CSC or another disease.
E87- Pachychoroid Disease Spectrum- A deep Dive- Dr. Angie Fong
Q: What is the role of oral medications like spironolactone in the treatment of CSC?
In Hong Kong, patients with CSC are usually treated with half dose PDT or yellow laser, as spironolactone is not commonly used.
