Vitreoretinal complications of osteoodontokeratoprosthesis surgery.

Purpose: To describe the vitreoretinal complications in a cohort of patients with osteoodontokeratoprosthesis (OOKP) and discuss surgical management.

Methods: Review of notes of 35 OOKP cases performed at the Sussex Eye Hospital (Brighton, United Kingdom) between January 1999 and December 2005 was performed.

Results: The overall incidence of vitreoretinal complications was 22.

One-year results of photodynamic therapy for small predominantly classic choroidal neovascular membranes secondary to age-related macular degeneration.

Purpose: To determine the visual and angiographic outcomes of patients with small predominantly classic choroidal neovascular membranes (CNV) undergoing photodynamic therapy (PDT).

Methods: The subjects were a cohort of patients with age-related predominantly classic CNV with lesion size of greatest linear diameter of 2000 microm or less treated with PDT. Lesion size and visual acuity were recorded at baseline and at 3-month intervals.
