ABSTRACT Objective: To underscore the critical importance of assessing the peripheral retina in all patients, especially those planning to use miotics. Methods: A retrospective and observational study was conducted at a single ophthalmological medical center, using records from the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) for closed-angle glaucoma and lesions predisposing to detachment. Participants in this study underwent anterior chamber assessment using the Goldman 3-Mirror lens and the Volk G-4 Gonioscopy lens. Peripheral retinal evaluation was conducted with indirect binocular ophthalmoscopy […]

The spontaneous closure of a full-thickness macular hole (MH) developed after vitrectomy is very uncommon. We report a small series of cases (two patients) with this presentation. The first patient developed a MH 1 month after vitrectomy for an epirrretinal membrane and, the second one, 3 weeks after vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. The MHs resolved spontaneously 2 months and 1 month after their documentation by optical coherence tomography(OCT), respectively. In this case report, we review the literature on spontaneous […]

Optic disc pit and macular microhole are two rare pathologies with an extremely low likelihood of coexistence, this paper will report an association of both pathologies in the same eye with the purpose of analyzing clinical manifestations, tests, angiography, OCT, retinography, biomocroscopy, treatment outcome and the connection between the optic disc pit and macular microhole.
