Displacement of Submacular Hemorrhage With Vitrectomy Combined With Subretinal Balanced Salt Solution and Air.

Purpose: To describe a technique of displacement of submacular hemorrhage (SMH) using subretinal injection of balanced salt solution and filtered air.

Methods: Patients presenting within 2 weeks of massive SMH (>4 disk diameter) were prospectively included. All patients underwent 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy, posterior vitreous detachment, injection of subretinal balanced salt solution and filtered air followed by partial fluid air exchange, 20% sulfur hexafluoride tamponade, and heads-up positioning postoperatively.

Microscope-Integrated Optical Coherence Tomography-Guided Autologous Full-Thickness Neurosensory Retinal Autograft for Large Macular Hole-Related Total Retinal Detachment.

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and utility of microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography in patients undergoing full-thickness neurosensory retinal autograft for refractory macular hole (MH)-associated retinal detachment.

Methods: We analyzed two eyes of two patients who had undergone a neurosensory retinal autograft for large MH associated retinal detachment. Both cases had microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography-guided placement and sizing of the retinal autograft.

Successful management of peripapillary choroidal neovascular membrane secondary to idiopathic intracranial hypertension with intravitreal ranibizumab.

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a common cause of papilledema in young females and causes headache with transient visual loss. Severe visual loss occurs due to optic atrophy or peripapillary choroidal neovascular membrane (PCNVM). PCNVM in IIH has an incidence of 0.

Efficacy of selective laser trabeculoplasty in primary angle closure disease.

Background: To study the role of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction in post-laser iridotomy primary angle-closure disease patients with inadequately controlled IOP.

Methods: In this prospective cross-sectional study, 34 patients with primary angle-closure disease with post-laser iridotomy open angles up to at least 180° were recruited. Following SLT, patients were examined at 1 day, 1 week, 1 and 3 months, 6 months and 1 year post SLT.

Acute Angle Closure Secondary to Tubercular Choroidal Granuloma.

Acute angle closure is usually thought to be secondary to pupillary block, which is relieved by laser iridotomy. Anterior rotation of the ciliary body at the scleral spur following development of an inflammatory ciliochoroidal detachment may result in a presentation of acute angle closure. It is imperative to recognize this condition correctly, because the management is with cycloplegics and anti-inflammatory drugs, which is diametrically opposite to the treatment of primary angle closure.

Outcomes of 23- and 25-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomies for dislocated intraocular lenses.

Purpose: To compare the outcome of 23-gauge as compared with 25-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy (TSV) in the management of dislocated intraocular lenses (IOLs).

Design: Retrospective, non-consecutive, comparative, interventional case series.

Participants: Patients with dislocated intraocular lens who underwent sutureless PPV using either 23-gauge or 25-gauge instruments.
