ABSTRACT The characteristic optical coherence tomography finding in solar maculopathy is a well-defined outer retinal hyporeflective space primarily involving the photoreceptor inner and outer segment layers. This typical optical coherence tomography image may be present in a few other pathologies, which currently constitute their main differential diagnoses. Our study shows the report of 12 eyes of 6 patients treated at the Hospital de Olhos do Paraná, presenting their clinical history and diagnostic images, with the purpose of comparing the findings […]

Objective: Analyze clinical data, therapy and tomographic parameters of patients attended at Fundação Hilton Rocha. Methods: This essay is a retrospective study based on a random sample of 150 patients submitted to cornea tomography and previous segment (Pentacam – Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany) at Fundação Hilton Rocha in the year 2015. The patients were classified as carriers or suspects of keratoconus through the following parameters: pachymetry, anterior and posterior central elevation, Ambrosio Relational Thinnest (ART), value of D and keratometry. After […]

Racemose Haemangioma (RH) is a congenital anomaly, characterized by retinal arteriovenous(AV) malformation. About 30% of patients have signs of central nervous system (CNS) involvement, which has been called the Wyburn-Mason syndrome. The authors present a 39-year-old male patient, who was admitted at the emergency room with decreased visual acuity of his left eye, for the last 6 days. Ophthalmic examination was performed and showed a visual acuity of 4/10 in his right eye and of 2/10 in the left eye. […]
