RETINA

Purpose:

To report the outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy for vitreous hemorrhage (VH) associated with retinal vein occlusion and to identify prognostic indicators.

Methods:

Interventional, retrospective consecutive case series between 2015 and 2021.

Results:

The study included 138 eyes of 138 patients (64 female and 74 male); 81 patients had branch retinal vein occlusion and 57 had central retinal vein occlusion. The mean age was 69.8 years. The mean duration between the diagnosis of VH and surgery was 79.6 ± 115.3 (range, 1–572) days. The mean follow-up was 27.2 months. The logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution visual acuity significantly improved from 1.95 ± 0.72 (Snellen equivalent, 20/1782) to 0.99 ± 0.87 (20/195) at 6 months and to 1.06 ± 0.96 (20/230) at the final visit (both P

Purpose:

The sclera is reportedly thicker in eyes with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) than in healthy control eyes. We compared the scleral thicknesses of the affected and unaffected fellow eyes of patients with unilateral CSC.

Methods:

We retrospectively examined the findings of 115 patients with unilateral CSC. Comparisons of the spherical equivalent, axial length, anterior chamber depth, subfoveal choroidal thickness, scleral thickness, and presence of peripheral ciliochoroidal effusion of the affected and fellow eyes were made. Using anterior segment optical coherence tomography, scleral thickness was measured vertically, 6 mm posterior to the scleral spur in the superior, temporal, inferior, and nasal directions.

Results:

No significant differences in scleral thickness in all four directions, spherical equivalent, axial length, anterior chamber depth, and frequency of ciliochoroidal effusion were found between the affected and unaffected fellow eyes. The only significant difference between the affected and fellow eyes was observed in the subfoveal choroidal thickness (398.8 µm vs. 346.6 µm, P

Purpose:

To describe and quantify the abnormalities of the retinal capillary plexuses using optical coherence tomography angiography in Coats disease.

Methods:

Retrospective study. Eleven eyes of 11 patients with Coats disease (9 men and two…

Purpose:

To investigate the performance of novel intraocular lens calculation formulae (Barrett Universal II, Emmetropia Verifying Optical, and Kane) and conventional formulae (Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, and Sanders‐Retzlaff‐Kraff/T [SRK/T]) in patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy or silicone oil removal combined with cataract surgery.

Methods:

In total, 301 eyes from 301 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy/silicone oil removal with concomitant cataract surgery were enrolled and divided into the following four groups according to preoperative diagnosis: silicone oil–filled eyes after pars plana vitrectomy, epiretinal membrane, primary retinal detachment, and macular hole.

Results:

Barrett Universal II exhibited the smallest mean absolute error (0.65 diopters [D]) and median absolute error (0.39 D) in total. In patients with primary retinal detachment, each formula exhibited the worst refractive outcomes in diverse vitreoretinal pathologies (P
