Purpose:
To determine the longitudinal changes in the morphologic features of dome-shaped macula in highly myopic eyes.
Methods:
Patients with a dome-shaped macula and high myopia (spherical equivalent
Background/Purpose:
Within the evolving landscape of healthcare in the United States (US), delineating the demographic nuances and financial implications of emergent conditions, such as rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), is paramount. This st…
Purpose:
To investigate the 10-year visual outcome and chorioretinal atrophy after a single intravitreal ranibizumab injection followed by a pro re nata regimen for myopic macular neovascularization in pathologic myopia, and to identify the factors…
Background/Purpose:
To evaluate clinical outcomes and assess genotype–phenotype correlations in patients with familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR).
Methods:
Clinical charts of 40 patients with FEVR were reviewed. FEVR was staged per P…
Purpose:
To describe the clinical and imaging features of sarcoid granuloma of the choroid and ciliary body.
Methods:
Retrospective case series of patients with choroid and/or ciliary body sarcoid granuloma managed at the Ocular Oncology Ser…
Purpose:
To determine the effect of combined macular spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and ultrawide field retinal imaging (UWFI) within a telemedicine program.
Methods:
Comparative cohort study of consecutive patients wi…
Purpose:
To investigate factors associated with 3-month or 1-year best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) after vitrectomy with subretinal tissue plasminogen activator injection for submacular hemorrhage (SMH) and to identify the predictors of early displacement.
Methods:
This prospective cohort study included consecutive eyes with SMH complicating neovascular age-related macular degeneration or retinal macroaneurysm that underwent vitrectomy with subretinal tissue plasminogen activator injection and were followed up for at least 3 months. Parameters that correlated with 3-month BCVA, 1-year BCVA, and 2-week displacement grade (0–3) were identified.
Results:
Twenty-nine eyes of 29 patients (73.1 ± 8.4 years; neovascular age-related macular degeneration, 25 eyes) were included. Logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution BCVA improved 3 months after the surgery (baseline, 0.76 [20/115] ± 0.35; 3-month, 0.51 [20/65] ± 0.32; P = 0.006). In multivariable analyses, 1-year logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution BCVA correlated with age (P = 0.007, β = 0.39) and SMH recurrence within 1 year after surgery (P
Purpose:
To assess the characteristics of completed panretinal photocoagulation (PRP), using ultra-widefield imaging in proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
Methods:
Quantitative assessment of ultra-widefield imaging images of 133 patients wi…
Purpose:
This study was conducted to evaluate the association of oral montelukast, selective antagonism for cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1, with reduced odds of exudative age-related macular degeneration (exAMD) development.
