Description of a patient with orbital fracture cause by a horse fall. Follow-up the surgical treatment of the strabismus and the enophtlamos.

X-linked juvenile retinoschisis is a hereditary and recessive vitreous-retinal disease. The main ophthamic manifestation is the bilateral macular cystic-like stellate maculopathy and splitting of the retina between the nerve fiber and ganglion cell layers. There were no treatments with efficacy in order to estabilize the visual acuity in the affected patients. This article presents a clinical case of a patient with a bilateral X- linked juvenil retinoschisis who was treated by the use of topical dorzolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor.

We demonstrate the combination of pseudophakic monovision technique with toric IOL in patients with relevant corneal astigmatism to reduce spectacle dependence after cataract surgery. All patients achieved UCDVA ³ 20/30 and UCNVA ³ J2 and none of them required spectacle correction on the 6th postoperative month.

Nós demonstramos a combinação da técnica de monovisão pseudofácica com lente intraocular tórica em pacientes com astigmatismo corneano relevante para reduzir a dependência de óculos após a cirurgia de catarata. Todos os pacientes apresentaram AVsc ³ 20/30 para longe e ³ J2 para perto, sendo que nenhum deles necessitou de correção ótica até o sexto mês pós-operatório.

Cornea intraepithelial dysplasias are lesions with low risk of malignancy within the spectrum of intraepithelial neoplasia of the ocular surface. These areas are presented as dysplasias or leukoplasias and are associated with the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV), a major risk factor. In this report, the authors describe a case of a corneal intraepithelial dysplasia treated by surgical excision, with histological confirmation and negative DNA hybridization for HPV.

One case of post-phacoemulsification refractive surprise in a posterior amorphous corneal dystrophy patient is reported herein. Its likely causative factor, as well as our approach once it was recognized are discussed in this report.

PRPÓSITO: Achados eletroretinográficos revelam que a baixa visual transitória observada em pacientes com a síndrome dos múltiplos e evanescentes pontos brancos na retina (MEWDS) está relacionada a distúrbios metabólicos ao nível do epitélio pigmentado da retina e dos fotorreceptores. No presente artigo, nós apresentamos um paciente com um quadro típico de MEWDS associado a edema macular, o qual pode ser um fator que reduz a acuidade visual. : Relato de caso. Sexo feminino, 53 anos, queixando-se de baixa visual há 7 […]

Eletroretinographic findings show that the transient decreased vision seen in patients with the multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) is related to metabolic disturbances at the level of the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptor complex. In this paper, we present a patient with a typical picture of MEWDS associated to macular edema, which could also be a factor to reduce vision in this disorder. Case report of a 53-year-old woman complaining about unilateral decreased vision of 7 days’ duration was […]
