Stereotactic radiotherapy for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy
Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is a variant of neovascular AMD. It is a disease of choroidal vasculature characterised by abnormal branching vascular network with aneurysmal dilatations (polyps). Features of PCV include pigment epithelial detachments (PED), subretinal fluid (SRF) accumulation and...
Subfoveal choroidal thickness and PCV
This report studies the prognostic factors for visual improvement and the need for additional treatments at one year after the initial combination therapy of intravitreal ranibizumab injection or intravitreal aflibercept injection followed by PDT in eyes with PCV. Fifty-six eyes...
RPE tears in cases of IPCV
The aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence, characteristics, management and prognosis of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tears in patients with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV). Medical records of previous cases were reviewed over an eight-year period from a...
Risk of developing pseudotumor cerebri in women using a levonorgesteral intrauterine device
Pseudotumor cerebri (PCT) is a disorder causing increased intracranial pressure without a mass lesion, usually seen in obese women of childbearing age. Idiopathic intracranial hypertension is an idiopathic form of the disorder, but several medications have been associated with the...
Strabismus measurement comparisons
The authors conducted a prospective study to compare the measurements obtained by objective alternate prism and cover test (PCT) and the subjective red glass test in 72 patients aged 60 years on average and with a mean visual acuity of...
Investigation of blood platelet parameters in anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy
The aim of this clinical retrospective comparative study was to assess the possible relationship between arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (AAION) and non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) with blood platelet parameters and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). The medical records of...
Van Herick Plus
This a consecutive cross-sectional study of 95 phakic patients over the age of 40-years-old. By applying a short, vertical slit beam, the inferior angle at the scleral-limbal junction at 6 o’clock position was evaluated, photographed and assessed by a ratio...
Hess vs. Harms vs. PCT measurements
This study aimed to compare the results of the different tests in 36 strabismus patients and 18 healthy controls aged 6-81 years. Tests included alternate prism cover test, Hess screen and Harms screen. Because of glasses restrictions with the Harms...
FA findings in treatment-naive premature infants
This retrospective study examined fluorescein angiography (FA) images of 162 eyes of 81 treatment-naive infants with retinal vascular immaturity and persistent avascular retina (PAR) despite exceeding postmenstrual age of 60 weeks. Disc diameter (DD), optic disc-to-fovea distance (FD), the length...
Congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction in patients with craniofacial abnormalities
This is a retrospective study including 1998 patients over a period of 10 years. Of this number, 41 patients were identified as having a craniofacial abnormality and congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) (23.1 per 10,000 live births). Interestingly the most...Possible COVID-19 related maculopathy
COVID-19 is being investigated as a potential cause for various ocular diseases, with growing evidence of related retinal vascular changes, that vary from isolated cotton wool spots and retinal haemorrhages to retinal vascular occlusions [1.2]. COVID-related macular affection has also...
