Comparison between multifocal ERG and C-Scan SD-OCT ("en face" OCT) in patients with a suspicion of antimalarial retinal toxicity: preliminary results.

Purpose: Pericentral visual field changes and disruption of the ellipsoid layer on spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) are the main features of antimalarial retinal toxicity. C-Scan OCT or "en face" enables a topographic frontal view of the changes observed within the different retinal layers in particular the ellipsoid layer. The aim of this prospective study was to compare multifocal ERG (mfERG) responses with the results of C-Scan OCT ("en face" OCT) in patients with abnormal visual field and to analyze relationships between the structural and functional abnormalities.

Circadian disturbance and idiopathic central serous chorioretinopathy.

Background: This present retrospective case control study was designed to evaluate circadian disturbance in patients with chronic idiopathic central serous chorioretinopathy (ICSC).

Methods: Between January 1st, 2012, and November 30th, 2014, 29 consecutive patients with chronic ICSC examined in a referral setting were compared with a gender-matched and age-matched control group of 29 patients. A history of pharmacologic medication (including corticosteroid treatment), sleep disturbance, irregular working hours, cardiovascular risk factors, and depressive anxiety disorders was noted.

Cytopathology of Vitreous Humor Samples in Routine Practice.

Objective: To describe findings in vitreous fluid samples in routine cytology practice.

Study Design: The pathology archives from 1988 to 2008 at our institution were searched for vitreous samples. The slides were reviewed and clinical and follow-up information was obtained.

Prognostic value of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness for postoperative peripheral visual field recovery in optic chiasm compression.

Unlabelled: OBJECT.: The authors' objective was to evaluate the predictive value of preoperative axonal loss for peripheral visual field recovery after surgery for optic chiasm compression.

Methods: Consecutive patients with optic chiasm compression in the period from October 2010 through August 2012 were retrospectively studied.

Intravitreal triamcinolone injections in non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

Background: In non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION), no treatments have demonstrated to be effective in recovering visual loss in randomized clinical trials. Oral steroids have been evaluated, and small series of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection in NA-AION have been reported. The purpose of our study was to report the visual outcome and morphological changes in response to a single IVTA injection as a treatment for patients with NA-AION.
