Purpose: To investigate the link between the capsular bend and the morphological types and characteristics of posterior capsular opacification (PCO) using anterior segment optical coherence tomography.
Methods: Thirty eyes with PCO were examined, and three types of PCO were identified: pearl, fibrosis, and mixed. We assessed anterior capsular overlap, intraocular lens-capsule adhesion, and capsular bending.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder of the proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates, results in hyperglycemia. Abnormalities in the function of insulin on target cells, its release from beta cells, or both may contribute to DM. The purpose of this research was to assess the progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) to the levels of serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and biochemical parameters.

Methods: 67-year-old woman's clinical findings, laboratory results, fundus fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) are given. Over a two-year period, the patient was monitored.
Purpose: To investigate the relationship between serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and changes in macular perfusion in different stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
Materials And Methods: The study was conducted on 72 eyes of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). They were divided into five groups based on their DR stage: no DR (nDR), mild and moderate nonproliferative DR, severe nonproliferative DR, active proliferative DR (aPDR), and stable PDR.
