Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The research on retinal diseases has greatly developed and expanded, allowing us to obtain a better understanding of retinal diseases.
Chronic inflammation and neurodegeneration have a widely recognized role in the pathogenesis of the main retinal pathologies, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy (DR), idiopathic vitreoretinal diseases, etc.
Common pathways have been identified among various retinal diseases that can be useful for the identification of new therapeutic targets and for the development of new treatment strategies.
Given the complexity of retinal pathologies, multidisciplinary approaches must be applied to provide solutions, as retinal problems appear to have mixed etiological origins.
The aim of this Special Issue is to clarify the pathogenesis of the main retinal diseases, in order to identify new ocular and systemic markers and new therapeutic strategies.
