DOI: 10.1080/1028415x.2017.1329976
Abstract: Objective: Macular pigment optical density (MPOD) – a non-invasive indicator of retinal xanthophylls and correlate of brain lutein – has been associated with superior cognitive function among adult populations. Given that lutein accumulation in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/iae.0000000000003387
Abstract: Macular pigment optical density, measured by heterochromatic flicker photometry, increases in eyes with primary epiretinal membrane, proportionally to epiretinal membrane severity and, particularly, to outer nuclear layer thickening. Probably, epiretinal membrane contraction induces a foveal… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.991423
Abstract: Purpose Hyperopic anisometropia is a major cause of amblyopia and may be associated with macular pigment optical density (MPOD) reduction. To explore whether the MPOD changes in hyperopic anisometropic amblyopia, we measured the MPOD using… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/nu12040888
Abstract: Macular pigment (MP), which is composed of lutein/zeaxanthin/mezo-zeaxanthin, is concentrated in the central part of the retina, the macula. It protects the macula by absorbing short-wavelength light and suppressing oxidative stress. To evaluate whether MP… read more here.
