Choroidal thickness in strabismus and amblyopia

The authors examined the effect of exotropia, esotropia, anisometropic amblyopia and hypermetropia on choroidal thickness in a prospective cross section study. The study included 100 patients and 20 controls with a mean age of 8.5±2.9 years; 61 female and 59...

Choroidal changes after horizontal strabismus surgery

The aim of this study was to investigate choroidal changes in the short-term by looking at the choroidal vascular layer after horizontal strabismus surgery. This was a retrospective study of 27 patients: 12 females and 15 males with mean age...

Choroidal thickness in ocular sarcoidosis by OCT measurement

This is the first study to evaluate the choroidal thickness in patients with ocular sarcoidosis during the quiescent phase using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) and comparing with normal subjects. Ocular sarcoidosis may affect the choroidal circulation (occlusive...

Choroidal changes in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children

This study aimed to evaluate the vascular structure of the choroid in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). This was a prospective study of 38 eyes of 19 patients and 60 eyes of 30 healthy controls. None had ocular pathology....

Choroidal defects in neurofibromatosis

The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of choroidal abnormalities using infrared reflectance imaging with optical coherence tomography (OCT) in paediatric patients with neurofibromatosis (NF) type 1. Thirty-eight eyes of 19 patients were reviewed. NF1 was diagnosed...

Choroidal and macular thickness in nonarteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy

This study evaluates the choroidal and macular thickness in patients with chronic nonarteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION). Two groups of subjects were compared, group one included 20 eyes with chronic NA-AION and group two, 31 healthy control eyes. The...

MPH treatment effect in ADHD on choroidal vascular index

In this study the authors aimed to investigate the choroidal vascular index (CVI) in treatment-free children with ADHD, children regularly taking methylphenidate (MPH) and healthy controls. This was a prospective cross-sectional study of 52 patients with newly diagnosed ADHD, 46...

The choroid in pregnancy

During pregnancy there can be different types of ocular changes including a decrease in corneal sensitivity, increase in central corneal thickness and curvature, decrease in intraocular pressure, central serous chorioretinopathy and ocular blood flow. Advances in ophthalmic imaging devices has...

Subfoveal choroidal thickness and PCV

This report studies the prognostic factors for visual improvement and the need for additional treatments at one year after the initial combination therapy of intravitreal ranibizumab injection or intravitreal aflibercept injection followed by PDT in eyes with PCV. Fifty-six eyes...

Macular choroidal changes after inferior oblique muscle surgery

This study was undertaken to investigate the retinal neurovasculature, choroidal thickness and choroidal vascular index (CVI) changes at the macula at one week, one- and three-month intervals post inferior oblique muscle myectomy. The hypothesis was that, given the close proximity...

Sex differences in the relationship between obesity and choroidal nevus in US adults

The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES); a population-based survey conducted annually in the US by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, was used to identify populations at higher risk for choroidal naevus. Over a period of four...
