Purpose:
To describe the clinical characteristics and multimodal imaging features of a distinctive subtype of active idiopathic multifocal choroiditis (iMFC) lesions with grey–yellow chorioretinal lesions surrounded by smaller satellite dots, a pre…
Purpose:

Purpose:
To evaluate the incidence and timing of pigment epithelial detachment (PED) and subretinal fluid (SRF) development in type 3 macular neovascularization.
Methods:
This retrospective study included 84 patients who were diagnosed with …
Purpose:
To assess the efficacy of a 0.18 mg intravitreal fluocinolone acetonide (FA) implant (Yutiq, EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Watertown, MA) as a treatment option for patients with radiation retinopathy-related cystoid macular edema.
Methods: …
Purpose:
To analyze the clinical characteristics of drusenoid pigment epithelial detachment (PED) with subretinal fluid (SRF) and to evaluate the impact of SRF on the long-term visual and anatomical outcomes.
Methods:
Forty-seven eyes with drusenoid PED (47 patients) who completed >24 months of follow-up were retrospectively analyzed. Intergroup comparisons of the visual and anatomical outcomes with and without SRF were made.
Results:
The mean duration of follow-up was 32.9 ± 18.7 months. The group with drusenoid PED with SRF (14 eyes) showed significantly higher PED height (468 ± 130 µm vs. 313 ± 88 µm, P
Purpose:
To assess the rate of late phase hyperfluorescent plaque (LPHP) in Type 1 macular neovascularization (MNV) in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and to evaluate its prognostic value.
Methods:
Retrospective study including Type 1 MNV in AMD and CSCR, from 2012 to 2020. Eyes with a late indocyanine green angiography image (>20 minutes) and clear visualization of MNV on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) were included. Quantitative and qualitative parameters on optical coherence tomography and best-corrected visual acuity were recorded at baseline and after three monthly antivascular endothelial growth factor injections.
Results:
Eighty-three eyes were included, 35 with CSCR and 48 with AMD. Patients in the CSCR group were significantly younger than in the AMD group (61.3 ± 10.4 vs. 80.2 ± 6.8 years, respectively, P
Purpose:
To evaluate visual acuity and morphologic changes after photobiomodulation (PBM) for patients affected with large soft drusen and/or drusenoid pigment epithelial detachment associated with dry age-related macular degeneration.

…
Purpose:
To investigate the use of dynamic widefield scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) and B-scan ultrasonography in imaging vitreous abnormalities in patients with complaints of floaters.

Twenty-one patients underwent both dynami…
Purpose:
To describe a sign that takes the form of a continuous hyperreflective band within the thickness of the ganglion cell layer (GCL), thus dubbed the “hyperreflective ganglion cell layer band” (HGB), which the authors detected in a fraction of patients affected by retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
Methods:
Retrospective, cross-sectional, observational study. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) images of patients with RP examined between May 2015 and June 2021 were retrospectively reviewed for the presence of HGB, epiretinal membrane (ERM), macular hole, and cystoid macular edema (CME). The ellipsoid zone (EZ) width was also measured. A subgroup of patients underwent microperimetry in the central 2°, 4°, and 10°.
Results:
One hundred and fifty-four eyes from 77 subjects were included in the study. The HGB was present in 39 (25.3%) eyes with RP. Mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.39 ± 0.05 logMAR (approximately 20/50 Snellen equivalent) and 0.18 ± 0.03 logMAR (approximately 20/32 Snellen equivalent) in eyes with and without HGB, respectively (P
