Diagnosis and management of orbital vascular malformations
This is an authoritative review of a controversial and difficult clinical area. The authors have experience of over 350 cases and provide a well-structured review of the classification and management of orbital vascular malformations. They emphasise the need to understand...
Retinal vascular occlusion from gentamicin injection post-vitrectomy
The authors present two case reports for the rare, but serious, complication of retinal vascular occlusion as a presumed result of subconjunctival injection following 25-gauge vitrectomy. Risk factors for the complication include: cardiovascular disease, retrobulbar anaesthesia, high intraocular pressure (IOP)...Study calls for thorough investigation of patients with early signs of retinal vascular disease
Patients with the eye condition Paracentral Acute Middle Maculopathy (PAMM) would benefit from further investigation, as their risk of heart attacks and strokes may be greater than previously shown, suggests a new study led by researchers at Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.HE Academy: Role of OCT Angiography Part 2: Retinal Vascular Disease

FA findings in treatment-naive premature infants
This retrospective study examined fluorescein angiography (FA) images of 162 eyes of 81 treatment-naive infants with retinal vascular immaturity and persistent avascular retina (PAR) despite exceeding postmenstrual age of 60 weeks. Disc diameter (DD), optic disc-to-fovea distance (FD), the length...
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...
Retinal microvasculature in amblyopic eyes
This study evaluated and compared measurements of macular vessel density and foveal avascular zone using optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography in amblyopia eyes and age-matched controls to determine whether results are in agreement with previous studies. This was a cross...
OCT angiography sign after whiplash
Berlin’s oedema is a rare condition following blunt ocular injury and a rare finding after whiplash injury. This case describes a 48-year-old male who suffered a seventh vertebrae fracture from a traffic accident. Two days later, decreased left eye visual...
The effects of anti-VEGF therapy for NvAMD on retinal vasculature
This retrospective consecutive case series examined 54 eyes of 54 treatment-naïve neovascular age-related macular degeneration (N-AMD) patients. Thirty-three eyes received intravitreal aflibercept injections, and 21 eyes received intravitreal ranibizumab injections with unaffected fellow eyes (54 eyes) as controls. All image...
Association between neurodegeneration and macular perfusion in the progression of diabetic retinopathy
In this prospective three-year longitudinal study, the authors aimed to explore the relation between retinal neurodegenerative changes and vessel closure (VC) in individuals with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR). The participants included 74 individuals with type 2 diabetes, NPDR, and Early...
Do bilateral same day intravitreal injections increase the risk of endophthalmitis?
This large retrospective cohort study reviewed all patients who had bilateral intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections between April 2012 and August 2017. There were 101,932 procedures performed in 5890 patients. The two most common indications for injections were...
