Introduction: Radius-Maumenee syndrome is a rare cause of open-angle glaucoma, secondary to elevated episcleral venous pressure (EVP) without any orbital or systemic abnormalities.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a male patient in his mid-sixties, who presented with bilateral dilated episcleral vessels, bilateral glaucoma, chorioretinal folds in both maculae and choroidal effusion in his left eye. Our case highlights the differentials that should be considered and the systematic investigations that should be performed.

Associations of and genes polymorphisms with central serous chorioretinopathy in a Greek population.

Background: Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is characterized by serous detachment of the central neurosensory retina and it is one of the most common retinal disorders. Various genetic polymorphisms have been associated with CSCR development.

Methods: The aim of our study was to investigate the potential association between (rs10490924) and (rs2070951 and rs5522) genes polymorphisms and CSCR development in a well defined Greek cohort for the first time in literature.

Multifocal Pattern Dystrophy Simulating Fundus Flavimaculatus: Multimodal Imaging for Early Diagnosis.

Multifocal pattern dystrophy simulating fundus flavimaculatus (MPDSFF) is a clinical entity characterized by several clinicopathological, angiographic, tomographic, and electrophysiological findings. A 58-year-old caucasian female patient presented with bilateral floaters and metamorphopsia.

Glueless and Sutureless Multi-Layer Amniotic Membrane Transplantation in a Patient With Pending Corneal Perforation.

Ocular graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a severe complication of allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It is a term used to describe a spectrum of signs and symptoms including ocular surface inflammation, dry eye syndrome, lacrimal and meibomian gland dysfunction. We present a case of a 73-year-old man with chronic myeloblastic leukaemia and chronic GVHD.
