Macular characteristics in unilateral idiopathic FTMH and fellow eyes
This retrospective observational study, conducted at a single site, aimed to compare characteristics of the macular structure and foveal pit in unilateral full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) and healthy fellow eyes. Full-thickness macular holes were further classified into three categories: (1)...
Stereotactic radiotherapy for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy
Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is a variant of neovascular AMD. It is a disease of choroidal vasculature characterised by abnormal branching vascular network with aneurysmal dilatations (polyps). Features of PCV include pigment epithelial detachments (PED), subretinal fluid (SRF) accumulation and...
The evolution and visual prognosis of glial proliferation of different grades after macular hole surgery
This retrospective research study aimed to investigate the evolution of glial proliferation of varying grades after successful idiopathic macular hole repair and its effects on foveal microstructure and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Two-hundred and two eyes were enrolled in this...Unilateral central scotoma following dengue fever
Case report A 16-year-old Caucasian male was referred to the eye casualty at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust by the infectious diseases unit in September 2013. He gave a history of photophobia, pain on eye movements and central blurred vision...
Imaging findings for macular dysplasia in nystagmus
This paper reports the retrospective analysis of congenital macular dysplasia in patients with albinism, macular heterotopias, congenital aniridia, foveal hypoplasia, congenital macular coloboma and congenital retinoschisis. The study included 29 eyes of 17 patients. The authors report SD-OCT aids diagnosis...
Relating metamorphopsia severity and OCT findings in advanced epiretinal membranes
The authors present the findings of a retrospective study to correlate metamorphopsia and ectopic inner foveal layers (EIFL) or ‘central bouquet’ abnormality (CBA) in patients with advanced stages of epiretinal membrane (ERM) following the new OCT‐based grading scheme as described...
Macular measurements for amblyopic eyes
This study aimed to evaluate the macular parameters including foveal avascular zone (FAV) size and vessel density in amblyopia vs fellow eyes. The study included 23 unilateral amblyopia children (9.86 ±3.12 years; 52.2% female) and non-amblyopia control eyes (8.67 ±2.06...Burning vision: vision loss from misuse of ‘toy’ laser pens in children
A case series of five children with macular burns due to the misuse of novelty laser products, purchased online or abroad, was undertaken at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital and The Children’s Hospital, Sheffield [1]. All patients were from the Sheffield...
Retinal structural features of CMV retinitis
Confocal adaptive optics (AO) technology has enabled cellular level retinal imaging, including imaging of photoreceptors and blood flow. Adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO) is a technology that provides high resolution and high contrast retinal images by correcting ocular aberrations....
OCT biomarkers in asymmetric anti-VEGF response in bilateral diabetic macular oedema
This study aimed to identify optical coherence tomography (OCT) biomarkers for predicting response to anti-VEGF treatment in diabetic macular oedema (DMO). Bilateral DMO patients with asymmetric response to a loading dose of anti-VEGF (ranibizumab / aflibercept) treatment were retrospectively studied....
Contrast sensitivity in myopic eyes
A classification system has been proposed for myopic maculopathy: grade 0 (no myopic retinal lesions), grade 1 (tessellated fundus), grade 2 (diffuse chorioretinal atrophy (CRA)), grade 3 (patchy CRA), and grade 4 (macular atrophy). Tessellated fundus is defined as the...
