The aim of this paper is to do a review of Drusen-like beneath retinal deposits in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis. Drusenlike beneath retinal deposits in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis appear to develop at an early age, often second decade of life different of drusen from age-related macular degeneration (AMD).Long term follow-up of the cases in this disease shows in the most of them, no progression of the of drusen-like beneath retinal deposits in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonefritis, the most of […]

The corneal transplantation (CT) is the most commonly performed type of transplant in the world and the Eye Banks are organizations whose capture, evaluate, preserve, store and distribute ocular tissues. With the evolution of surgical techniques and equipment for CT, the BOs had to evolve to keep up with these requirements. This evolution goes from tissues capture techniques, donating money and clarification to the patient (e.g. internet-based), use of current equipment for more adequate tissues supply for the most current […]

Corioretinitis sclopetaria is a rare manifestation of ocular trauma which may or may not penetrate the orbit. The aim of this study is to report a case of Corioretinitis sclopetaria after orbital trauma by a firearm bullet that had initial total blindness in the affected eye, and evolved over weeks with partial visual recovery. We report a 12 years old boy, victim of firegun injury, who presented a diagnosis of corioretinitis sclopetaria in his right eye. Initial ophthalmologic examination of […]

The acute and nontraumatic diseases that involve the orbit are often little known by most physicians. These conditions are due to several factors, such as immune disorders, congenital, infections, vascular, among others disorders. The infectious causes correspond to more than 50% of all cases and require rapid diagnosis and management in order to minimize sequels. Computed tomography (CT) is the first line imaging method on these cases, generally being available in emergency centers and capable to provide an accurate, quick […]
