Over spring break, 17 students from the class of 2027, 2028, and 2029 participated in this year’s Business Management Immersion program (BMIP).

Ten different alumni welcomed these students to their private practices to share their insights on how to open, run, and own a business.

We extend our sincere gratitude to these alumni practices for generously sharing their time and expertise with our students!

A new publication from the Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group (PEDIG) includes contributions from UC Berkeley authors Drs. Jennifer Fisher and Yasmin Javed.

The randomized clinical trial found that prescribed full-time alternate day patching was more effective than observation in improving distance control and reducing the magnitude of deviation – even with low adherence.

These findings support patching as a meaningful non-surgical treatment option, though the duration of benefit and comparisons with other interventions require further study.

A new paper in the Journal of Clinical Investigation Insight for the NEI funded collaborative Glaucoma project of the Gronert and Flanagan Labs at Berkeley and Sivak Lab at the University of Toronto.

Prostaglandin analogues, such as latanoprost, are the first-line treatment to reduce ocular hypertension in the management of glaucoma. The mechanism of actions for latanoprost are not well defined.

The team discovered that in glaucoma patients a protective and anti-inflammatory lipid signal, lipoxin A4, was unexpectedly elevated in the aqueous humor.

A new study published in Science Advances by Drs. Benjamin Chin, Martin Banks, Derek Nankivil, Austin Roorda, and Emily Cooper investigates an open question: what wavelength is brought into best focus by the human eye?

The findings suggest the eye relies on color-based mechanisms – not just sharpness – to guide focus, offering new insight into vision and potential approaches for slowing myopia.

An enthusiastic group of Berkeley faculty and alumni once again supported the annual San Francisco LightHouse Little Learners Beeper Egg Hunt, recently hosted at the California School for the Blind in Fremont, CA.

These takeovers are now easier to revisit, as we created a new webpage to organize them in one place!

The page includes links to takeovers from the past year, grouped by category, including first-year through fourth-year OD students, Vision Science PhD students, and some participating residents, faculty and staff.

A new paper from the Chung lab, “Altered retinal vasculature in amblyopia,” by Drs. Rijul Soans and Susana Chung, has been published in the special issue on Advances in Amblyopia Research in Vision Research.

The authors examined whether retinal blood vessel structure differs in adults with amblyopia compared to individuals with normal vision.

About the photo: Key features of retinal vasculature that were analyzed: vascular area, fractal dimension, vascular skeleton length, and vascular bifurcation points.
