Age-related macular degeneration is associated with probable cerebral amyloid angiopathy: A case-control study
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common retinal degenerative disorder among older individuals. Amyloid deposits, a hallmark of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), may be involved in the pathogenesis of AMD. Since amyloid deposits may contribute to the development of both AMD and CAA, we hypothesized that patients with AMD have a higher prevalence of CAA.

Ischemic stroke is a potential complication of uncontrolled inflammation in mevalonate kinase deficiency – A case report
Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is an autosomal recessive monogenic autoinflammatory disease (AID) characterized by recurrent antigen-independent systemic inflammation attacks, interleukin-1beta hypersecretion, fever and pain.1 Neurological manifestations include headaches, fatigue, retinal dystrophy, ataxia and development delay.2

Vaccine-related retinal artery occlusion in adults: a review of the current literature
First of all, I am pleased to have an opportunity to discuss our recently published review on vaccine-related retinal artery occlusion (RAO) in adults.1 Publication and reporting bias are well known in medical research,2 and time lag bias is unavoidable in major public healthcare event as if COVID-19 vaccination.3 Our review clearly listed out the literature search methods on search engine and database used (MEDLINE and PubMed), keywords and MeSH terms applied (vaccine retinal artery occlusion), as well as the date of the search (10th January 2022).

Retinal and optic nerve magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging in acute non-arteritic central retinal artery occlusion
Diffusion weighted imaging hyperintensity (DWI-H) has been described in the retina and optic nerve during acute central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). We aimed to determine whether DWI-H can be accurately identified on standard brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in non-arteritic CRAO patients at two tertiary academic centers.

Isolated and Combined Unilateral Central Retinal Artery and Vein Occlusions After Vaccination. A Review of the Literature
Retinal artery occlusion (RAO), especially central RAO, is a sight-threatening and potentially blinding ophthalmic emergency. Recent publications reported its association with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) mRNA vaccines. Although rare, vaccines have been linked to ophthalmic complications, and it is of interest to examine the current literature on vaccine-related RAO.

Response to the Letter to the Editor by Kishore et al.
We appreciate these comments on our recently published article on the referral pattern of patients with acute retinal arterial ischemia at our institution.1 As Dr. Kishore et al. know, we have been trying for quite some time now to educate eye care providers regarding the need to have these patients immediately evaluated in emergency facilities with the help of neurologists with an expertise in stroke. Over the past decade, we alerted the ophthalmology community to the necessity of following previously published guidelines by the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association.

The Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Protocol in Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion Seen within 24 Hours at a Tertiary Institution
We read with interest the research article entitled “Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion Seen within 24 h at a Tertiary Institution”,1 it was an original study focusing on the timing of emergency hospital attendance after acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion (CRAO) onset from sudden vision loss. The authors were particularly concerned on th e CRAO protocol of intravenous thrombolysis and diagnostic pathway. However, as the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) practitioners running the HORA study,2–5 we are more interested in the HBOT protocol adopted in the authors’ tertiary institution, which was not mentioned in the article.

Response by Mac Grory et al. to Letter regarding “Structural and Functional Imaging of the Retina in Central Retinal Artery Occlusion – Current Approaches and Future Directions”
We wish to thank Drs. Tuuminen, Achiron and Kanclerz for the interest in our paper and for the opportunity to address several entrenched misconceptions about the treatment of central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). In 2015, Schrag et al.1 published a subject level meta-analysis concerning visual outcomes in patients with CRAO who were untreated, treated with thrombolysis or treated with a variety of conservative therapies (anterior chamber paracentesis, ocular massage and/or hemodilution). An important innovation in this work was the use of a simple, reproducible definition of visual recovery as the attainment of a fina...

Controversies on the Recommended Treatment for Central Retinal Artery Occlusion
In a recent article, Mac Grory et al.1 described the structural and functional retinal imaging modalities in central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). They have also suggested that thrombolysis is emerging as a compelling therapeutic approach for CRAO treatment, and should be administered shortly after the onset of visual loss to induce recanalisation of the occluded retinal arteries and reperfusion of the ischemic retina before retinal cell death. Importantly, there is considerable variability in CRAO management patterns among practitioners, institutions, and subspecialty groups.

Structural and Functional Imaging of the Retina in Central Retinal Artery Occlusion – Current Approaches and Future Directions
Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is a form of acute ischemic stroke which affects the retina. Intravenous thrombolysis is emerging as a compelling therapeutic approach. However, it is not known which patients may benefit from this therapy because there are no imaging modalities that adequately distinguish viable retina from irreversibly infarcted retina. The inner retina receives arterial supply from the central retinal artery and there is robust collateralization between this circulation and the outer retinal circulation, provided by the posterior ciliary circulation.

Tissue-Based Stroke Definition Impacts Stroke Incidence but not Ethnic Differences
In 2013, a new stroke definition was promulgated.1 Ischemic stroke was defined as an episode of neurologic dysfunction resulting from “CNS infarction.” The term CNS infarction included not only patients with clinical symptoms lasting greater than 24 h, but also those who had MRI diffusion positive signal with symptoms less than 24 h in duration. It also included retinal and spinal cord infarction as well as cerebral venous s inus thrombosis with infarction. All of these factors would increase previous estimates of ischemic stroke.
