Purpose: To determine the sensitivity and specificity of different retinal imaging combinations for the diagnosis of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age-related macular degeneration.
Methods: Patients aged 50 years or older referred for suspicious recent-onset CNV related to age-related macular degeneration were prospectively included for 6 months. Data recorded included color fundus photographs (CFPs), spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), and fluorescein angiography (FA) images.
[Retinal nerve fiber layer in OCT 3: prospective study of 53 normal children].

Purpose: To measure the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL thickness) in normal children using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and evaluate the effects of several factors on RNFL thickness, in order to complete results of other studies on this topic.
Material And Method: One hundred and four eyes of 53 normal children were investigated using OCT (Stratus OCT 3, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA, USA) measuring the RNFL thickness. These 28 boys and 25 girls had a mean age of 9.
Purpose: To describe an unusual feature in myopic eyes responsible for visual loss, which we call a dome-shaped macula.
Design: Retrospective, observational case series.
Methods: After observing isolated cases of dome-shaped macula, we analyzed optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans of 140 highly myopic eyes present in our OCT database to find similar cases.
Purpose: To characterize the evolution of serous retinal detachment (SRD) combined with diabetic macular edema (DME) using optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Design: Observational retrospective case series.
Methods: In our institution, 64 eyes of 40 diabetic patients who had SRD combined with DME were studied.
Purpose: Full-thickness macular hole associated with diabetic macular oedema is a rare feature and its pathogenesis remains incompletely elucidated. We report the occurrence of a full-thickness macular hole, documented with optical coherence tomography (OCT), in a patient with diabetic cystoid macular oedema treated by intravitreal triamcinolone injections.
Case Report: A 48-year-old woman with refractory diabetic cystoid macular oedema underwent successive intravitreal triamcinolone injections, which were followed by a progressive thinning of the neurosensory retina at the fovea, and then by a full-thickness macular hole, associated with a perifoveal posterior hyaloid detachment, visible on OCT.
