A Revista Brasileira de Oftalmologia (RBO) é uma publicação tradicional da oftalmologia brasileira. Ela é enviada aos Sócios da Sociedade Brasileira de Oftalmologia (SBO) desde 1942. Todavia, as sociedades e a medicina sofrem mudanças ao longo do tempo e isto cria necessidades de adaptação do periódico a novos contextos […].

Malignant glaucoma is an entity characterized by intraocular pressure (IOP) with a shallow anterior chamber in the presence of a patent peripheral iridectomy. In its classic form, malignant glaucoma is rare but one of the most serious complications of fistulizing surgery in patients with narrow angle or angle closure glaucoma. In this case we have a female patient who developed crisis of ciliary block glaucoma (malignant) during performance of circadian IOP curve with dynamic contour tonometer.

PURPOSE: To describe the clinical and histopathologic findings of eight cases of idiophatic sclerosing orbital inflammation. METHODS: A retrospective study from the file of the Ophthalmic Pathology Laboratory of the Hospital Universitário Professor Edgard Santos, Federal University of Bahia, during the period from 1974 to 2010. The clinical data, computed tomography and histopathologic sections obtained by biopsy of all cases were reviewed. RESULTS: From 10312 specimens submitted to the Ophthalmic Pathology Laboratory, eight (0,08%) had a final diagnosis of idiopathic […]

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate accuracy and reproducibility of streak retinoscopy without neutralising lenses in experimental hyperopia of an artificial eye. METHODS: Observe a Welsh Allynretinoscope streak through the pupil of an artificial eye prepared do show hyperopia from +1,00 D to +8,00 D. The streak was moved while varying its width by sliding the sleeve upwards until neutralisation point. The retinoscope was fitted either with a millimetre scale under the sleeve or with a multimetre connected to a rheostat driven by a […]

Despite being rare, ocular injury due to a compact disc burst can be responsible for severe ocular damage. We present in this article a case of corneal perforation in addition to lens trauma caused by intentional compact disc break. A 44 year old female physician was examined complaining of visual acuity decrease, light sensitivity, tearing and foreign body sensation on OD after watching a compact disc being broken intentionally. In the first examination, she had a corneal perforation with aqueous […]

O descolamento da membrana de Descemet pode ser uma complicação grave após a cirurgia de catarata, resultando em edema de córnea e redução da acuidade visual. Este relato descreve um caso raro de descolamento da membrana de Descemet seis meses após cirurgia de catarata com facoemulsificação sem intercorrências, documentado com tomografia de coerência óptica do segmento anterior (OCT; RTVue, Optovue). Foram realizadas descemetopexia pneumática e sutura corneana, com resolução do descolamento e recuperação visual. Este relato procura alertar os médicos […]

A citicolina pode ser utilizada em vários problemas neurológicos. O tratamento combinado de citicolina e oclusão na ambliopia já foi previamente relatado. O objetivo deste estudo é ilustrar o efeito da citicolina em paciente amblíope sem o tratamento oclusivo. Um menino de 11 anos de idade foi submetido a um exame oftalmológico completo incluindo PEV do tipo flash e do tipo padrão reverso. Para o PEV tipo flash, foram analisadas duas médias de 100 estímulos cada uma. Para o PEV […]

*Artigo publicado na Rev Bras Oftalmol.2012;71(5):331-337 * O objetivo deste artigo de revisão é discutir o conhecimento atual sobre a fisiopatologia e as abordagens diagnóstica, terapêutica e profilática do glaucoma maligno. Este tipo de glaucoma pode ocorrer após diferentes procedimentos cirúrgicos. Pode ocorrer em olhos áfacos, fácicos e pseudofácicos e se desenvolver espontaneamente em olhos não-operados, ou associado ao uso de mióticos. Atualmente, a biomicroscopia ultrassônica tem revelado muitos achados úteis e importantes para o diagnóstico e o tratamento do […]

Scientific research is traditionally divided into two categories: basic research and applied research. Basic research is needed to provide a better understanding of disease, but not directly translating that knowledge into useful clinical application. Translational research would be the advancement of science applied to the development of new diagnostic tests, drugs and or intervention techniques for patients with established understanding of disease development and progression. The main goal of translational research is to integrate advances in biotechnology, clinical trials, boosting […]

PURPOSE: To determine the reproducibility of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and optic nerve head parameters measured with the optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in normal eyes. METHODS: Thirty-four eyes of 34 healthy patients were included in the study. The Cirrus OCT optic disc cube 200×200 protocol was used to obtain three scans from each eye to evaluate the reproducibility. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated for the measurements of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and optic nerve head […]
