Ocular Hornet Injury: A Case Report on Corneal Microperforation and Endophthalmitis.

The lesser-banded hornet () is a prevalent species in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia, including Malaysia. Its stings can result in local reactions, severe anaphylactic shock, and even death. We report a rare case of corneal microperforation and endophthalmitis following an ocular hornet injury.

Sphingomonas paucimobilis endophthalmitis postpenetration ocular trauma: A rare case report.

Endophthalmitis is an uncommon purulent inflammation of the intraocular fluids secondary to endogenous or exogenous causes. It is known that posttraumatic endophthalmitis had a notably poor visual outcome, and it poses therapeutic challenges. Therefore, early organism detection would be beneficial in therapeutic management and are able to reduce long-term complications.

Retinal Vasculature Fractal Dimension Measures Vessel Density.

Purpose: The goal of this study was to provide the empirical evidence of fractal dimension as an indirect measure of retinal vasculature density.

Materials And Methods: Two hundred retinal samples of right eye [57.0% females (n = 114) and 43.

Long-term intraocular pressure changes in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration treated with ranibizumab.

Background/aims: To investigate the long-term effects of multiple intravitreal injections (IVTs) of ranibizumab (Lucentis) on intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration.

Methods: In 320 eyes, IOP measurements were performed at baseline prior to injection and compared with IOP measurements of the last visit. Correlations between mean IOP change and total number of IVTs, visual acuity or patient age were tested.
