Sickle cell eye disease: an overview of vitreoretinal complications and their surgical management

Sickle cell disease is the most common genetic disorder worldwide and is associated with lifelong anaemia, intermittent pain and multi-organ morbidity. Ocular involvement can be associated with significant visual impairment due to the complications of proliferative sickle retinopathy (PSR). Occasionally...

Hyper reflective foci (HRF) on OCT in diabetic retinopathy

This study investigated the presence of hyper reflective foci (HRF) in asymptomatic patients affected by type 1 or type 2 diabetes, separately, without clinically significant diabetic macular oedema and visual impairment. In total 71 eyes with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy were...

Results of fixed aflibercept treatment regime in type 3 neovascularisation

In this prospective study the authors evaluate the effect of intravitreal aflibercept injections in the treatment of naive type 3 neovascularisation using a fixed treatment regime. Fourteen eyes of 14 patients were studied. All patients were treated with intravitreal 2.0...

OCT angiography and retinal vein occlusions

In this retrospective, observational case series, the authors set out to evaluate the morphology of the superficial and deep capillary plexa of eyes that suffered a retinal vein occlusion (RVO) on OCT angiography (OCTA) and compare the findings with fluorescein...

25 years of OCT

David Huang first described optical coherence tomography (OCT) in 1991, in his seminal paper on the subject in Science. This method developed the work of others on ophthalmic interferometry, which essentially showed that measuring reflected light could be used to...

The Retinal Atlas (2nd Edition)

Those readers familiar with the first edition of The Retinal Atlas will appreciate the comprehensive nature of this publication, and this latest version incorporates retinal images generated by recently developed imaging technology. As the title suggests, this hardcover version is...

Progression of myopic maculopathy after treatment

The authors report on a retrospective study carried out to evaluate long-term progression of myopic maculopathy and functional outcome in eyes treated for myopic choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) and in eyes without CNV. Fifty-four myopic eyes of 30 patients were included...

Fluorescein angiography and OCT in myopic CNV

Fluorescein angiography (FA) and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) are the most common examinations used in the management of anti-VEGF therapy in choroidal neovascularisation (CNV). In comparison to FA, OCT provides a noninvasive evaluation of the macula. Myopic CNV are...

Clinical course of vitreomacular adhesion managed by initial observation

The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical course of patients with idiopathic vitreomacular adhesion (VMA) with a noncomparative case series of patients who had clinical symptoms and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography findings consistent with VMA. The VMA...

Pars plana vitrectomy for vitreomacular traction syndrome

This paper presents a meta-analysis and systematic review of the safety and efficacy of vitrectomy for vitreomacular traction (VMT), based on 21 eligible articles from 460 identified. A strength of this study is that it provided pooled analysis across a...

Features of AMD treatment non-responders

This is a retrospective consecutive case series of 365 eyes with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who had three monthly intravitreal aflibercept treatments for at least 12 months. Responders were defined as complete resolution of exudation, intraretinal oedema, subretinal fluid, pigment...

Two-year results of a T&E aflibercept regime in caucasian PNV

This a retrospective study examining two-year outcomes of patients with pachychoroid neovasculopathy (PNV) treated with a treat and extend (T&E) regimen of intravitreal aflibercept. The mean age was 63.84 ± 7.92 years with nine males (35%) and 17 females (65%)....
