Blue Light Exposure: Ocular Hazards and Prevention-A Narrative Review
Cougnard-Gregoire, Audrey; Merle, Bénédicte M. J.; Aslam, Tariq; Seddon, Johanna M.; Aknin, Isabelle; Klaver, Caroline C. W.; Garhöfer, GerhardIntroduction: Exposure to blue light has seriously increased in our environment since the arrival of light emitting diodes (LEDs) and, in recent years, the proliferation of digital devices rich in blue light. This raises some questions about its potential deleterious effects on eye health. The aim of this narrative review is to provide an update on the ocular effects of blue light and to discuss the efficiency ...

Exploring Consensus on Preventive Measures and Identification of Patients at Ri...
García-Layana, Alfredo; Garhöfer, Gerhard; Aslam, Tariq M.; Silva, Rufino; Delcourt, Cécile; Klaver, Caroline C. W.; Seddon, Johanna M.Early identification of AMD can lead to prompt and more effective treatment, better outcomes, and better final visual acuity; several risk scores have been devised to determine the individual level of risk for developing AMD. Herein, the Delphi method was used to provide recommendations for daily practice regarding preventive measures and follow-up required for subjects at low, moderate, and high risk of AMD ev...

All enrolled subjects underwent a full risk assessment, including l...
Vitamin D and Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Layana, Alfredo Garcia; Minnella, Angelo Maria; Garhöfer, Gerhard; Aslam, Tariq; Holz, Frank G; Leys, Anita; Silva, Rufino; Delcourt, CécileIn recent years, the relationship between vitamin D and health has received growing attention from the scientific and medical communities. Vitamin D deficiencies have been repeatedly associated with various acute and chronic diseases, including age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Its active metabolite, 1α,25-dihydoxy vitamin D, acts as a modulator of cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis, and cu...
