Abstract The purpose is to report the management of multiple retinal epithelial detachments (PEDs) in a 50-year-old male with bilateral PEDs not associated with chorioretinal or systemic pathologies after a complete study. Idiopathic multiple PEDs could be a variation of central serous chorioretinopathy, but other causes as well as other pathological conditions which could produce similar images, are required to be ruled out.

Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Nd: YAG laser capsulotomy on refraction, central macular thickness (CMT) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness. Methods: 42 eyes of 42 patients who treated with Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy were included in thisprospective study. Spherical equivalent (SE), cyclindrical power refraction, CMT and RNFL thickness were evaluated preoperatively and at postoperative first day, first week and postoperative first month. Results: Spherical equivalent values and central macular thickness values did […]

The authors make an update of pachychoroid in a group of the choroidal-retinal diseases that choroidal thickening is an usualenhanced depth image – optic coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) finding like as central serous chorioretinopathy, pachychoroid neovasculopathy, polipoidal choroidal vasculopathy and pachychoroid pigment epitheliopathy.

Acute zonal occult outer retinopathy (AZOOR) is a rare disease characterized by an acute damage of one or more external retinal zones leading to the visual field or the visual acuity impairment associated with small or no changes in the fundus examination.The main clinical symptoms are scotomas and the sudden onset of photopsias. Abnormal findings on electroretinography and visual field defects are critical for the diagnosis. Central vision is usually preserved and the stabilization occurs in six months in most […]

Pterygium is a fibrovascular lesion of the ocular surface that can display an aggressive clinical behavior and, occasionally, threaten vision. Although there is no consensus on its pathogenesis, recent evidence suggests that it is a proliferative, rather than degenerative condition, strongly correlated with exposure to ultraviolet radiation. We report a case of pterygium that grew up bellow the flap Lasik region after the surgery.

Background: Systematization of characteristics and morphological changes in the retina, and understanding its role in occlusive diseases involving retinal vessels can contribute to research on the dynamic of the pathological process and to improved understanding of disease treatment. Objective: To research the basic morphometric and structural indicators of the macular region of the retina in patients with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). Settings and Design: Ufa Eye Research Institute, retrospective case series. Methods: The basic morphometric and structural indices of […]

The retinoblastoma is known as the most common intraocular malignancy of the childhood. In addition to other diagnostic methods the optical coherence Tomography (OCT) may be considered an important tool in the evaluation of selective involvement of the retina by small and medium sized tumors at the posterior pole of the eye. The authors present two cases of retinoblastoma in which the OCT was able to demonstrate the morphological features of the tumor at diagnosis and the structural changes in […]

The intrastromal corneal ring implant surgery is becoming a surgical procedure in the treatment of keratoconus additive in order to minimize and delay the complications inherent to the pathology. Its action consists in the remodeling cornea, flattening and regulating the central corneal surface. Nowadays with the advent of new technologies, there is an important contribution in the diagnosis of keratoconus, with not only diagnosis but also more effective with better monitoring and prognosis of patients with this disorder ectatic. In […]
