Central Retinal Vein Occlusion-like Appearance: A Precursor Stage in Evolution of Frosted Branch Angiitis.

Purpose: To report a young man with a central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO)-like appearance which later evolved to frosted branch angiitis (FBA).

Case Report: As 28-year-old Indian man presented with optic disc swelling, hyperemia, peripapillary hemorrhages, and dilated tortuous veins in the left eye, 6 months after being diagnosed with idiopathic FBA in the right eye. Within 3 days of presentation, the left eye developed FBA, which was promptly and successfully treated with oral steroids.

Intraoperative Optical Coherence Tomography Imaging and Assessment of the Macula During Cataract Surgery: A Novel Technique.

The authors describe a technique to qualitatively analyze the posterior segment during cataract surgery using intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT). Macular iOCT can be done before and after intraocular lens implantation after the media is rendered clear following phacoemulsification. A handheld irrigating planoconcave contact lens is placed over the cornea with the operating microscope in retroillumination mode.

Optical Coherence Tomography Follow-up of an Unusual Case of Old Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment With a Hemorrhagic Macrocyst at the Macula.

A 32-year-old female presented with visual acuity of hand movement close to face, an old inferior rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), and a large hemorrhagic macular macrocyst (HMM) in the right eye. After 2 weeks of successful vitreoretinal surgery, the HMM started decreasing in height and resolved by 3 months. On optical coherence tomography, a zone of hyperreflectivity in the outer retinal layers was evident on resolution of the cyst.
