Vitreoretinal Disease: Diagnosis, Management and Clinical Pearls (second edition)
A comprehensive, well-illustrated and highly informative resource providing excellent descriptions of vitreoretinal diseases, their presentation, diagnosis and management. The 40 chapters are grouped into four sections, namely: the Anatomy and Physiology of the vitreous, retina, choroid and retinal pigment epithelium;...
Unique case of steroid-induced intraocular pressure spike causing NAION
The literature describes previous cases of nonarteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) following rapid rises in intraocular pressure (IOP) leading to reduced optic nerve head perfusion and disruption. This is commonly following ophthalmic procedures, acute glaucoma or steroid eye drops....
Cataract extraction and microperimetry
In this study, the authors assessed retinal sensitivity before and after cataract extraction, in an effort to understand how lens opacities may affect microperimetry results in glaucoma and macular diseases. Thirty patients awaiting cataract extraction were examined and their lens...
Retinal vascular occlusion from gentamicin injection post-vitrectomy
The authors present two case reports for the rare, but serious, complication of retinal vascular occlusion as a presumed result of subconjunctival injection following 25-gauge vitrectomy. Risk factors for the complication include: cardiovascular disease, retrobulbar anaesthesia, high intraocular pressure (IOP)...UK ophthalmologists discuss value of ultra-widefield multimodality retinal imaging
Utilising optomap ultra-widefield (UWF™) multimodality retinal imaging with integrated SS (or SD) OCT in clinical practice contributes to identifying unexpected pathologies in a patient without visual complaints, report 81% of clinicians at industry webinar.
ICG TTT for retinoblastoma
Transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) is a specific form of ocular TT using infrared radiation (diode laser). Indocyanine green (ICG) is also used to achieve the optimal phototherapy effect in eyes with minimal pigment. Twenty-one patients with 42 retinoblastomas in 30 eyes...
