Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) parameters in patients with moderate myopia and healthy individuals retrospectively.

Methods: A total of 80 male individuals aged 18-20 years were included in the study with 40 moderate myopic and 40 healthy persons. All participants underwent detailed ocular examination including refraction, intraocular pressure (IOP), visual acuity, biomicroscopy, OCTA measurement and optic biometry measurement.

Bilateral acute depigmentation of the iris (BADI) is a rare disease characterized by iris atrophy. Although it can be self-limiting, it is sometimes progressive and can lead to glaucoma and severe vision loss. Two female patients were admitted to our clinic because of a change in iris color following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess how drinking water affects the eye, specifically looking at changes in retinal blood flow using advanced imaging techniques (OCTA) on healthy young males.
  • Twenty-five male subjects had their macular blood flow and other eye parameters measured at different times on two separate days: once without water and once after drinking water.
  • Results showed significant increases in blood vessel density in the fovea after drinking water, but other eye measurements remained unchanged, indicating temporary changes in retinal blood flow due to water intake.

Purpose: To evaluate thiol/disulfide homeostasis in ocular-active (OA) and ocular-inactive (OI) Behçet disease (BD) patients and compare the data with healthy subjects.

Methods: Twenty OABD patients, 20 OIBD patients and 20 healthy control subjects were included into the study. The BD ocular attack score 24 (BOS24) scoring system was used to assess the activity of disease in ocular BD patients.

Objectives: This study examined changes in the levels of organic acids, which are important tear metabolites, after corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) treatment for keratoconus.

Methods: This prospective, nonrandomized, interventional case series included a single eye from 24 patients who were scheduled to receive CXL treatment (Dresden protocol) for progressive keratoconus. Before CXL treatment and at 6 months after treatment, tears were collected in capillary tubes.

Purpose: The aim of the present study was to evaluate retinal and choroidal thicknesses in children with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).

Methods: Thirty patients with FMF and 28 healthy controls were included in the study. The thicknesses of the retina and choroid of each subject's right eye were measured at the fovea and horizontal nasal and temporal quadrants at 500-µm intervals to 1500 µm from the foveal center using spectral-domain optic coherence tomography.
