Evaluation of parafoveal and peripapillary vascular densities using optical coherence tomography angiography in children with thalassemia major.

Background: Thalassemia major (TM) is an inherited anaemia caused by faulty haemoglobin synthesis. Reducing serum iron levels using iron chelating agents is an important step in the treatment of TM, and the effects on the eye of both the disease and these agents can be determined by regular eye examination.

Objectives: We evaluated macular and optic nerve vascular densities in children with TM and compared the results with healthy controls using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).

Retinal Microvascular Changes in Patients with Multiple Myeloma: A Study Based on Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography.

Ocular microvascular networks and variables were analyzed using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) who had no pathological findings in their routine ophthalmologic examinations. The study included 31 patients with a diagnosis of MM and 30 healthy controls. The ophthalmologic examination findings and OCTA measurements of the participants were prospectively analyzed.

Evaluation of choroidal thickness in patients who have recovered from COVID-19.

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate choroidal thickness (CT) in patients who have recovered from COVID-19 by using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT).

Methods: We included fifty-eight patients who have recovered from COVID-19 (group 1) and fifty healthy control subjects (group 2) in this prospective study. Best corrected visual acuity, anterior segment and posterior segment examinations of all subjects were performed.

Evaluation of Retinal Microvascular Perfusion Changes in Patients with Celiac Disease.

Purpose: We aimed to determine whether there are retinal microvascular changes in patients with celiac disease (CD).

Methods: A total of 30 patients with CD (group 1) and 30 healthy controls (group 2) were included in this study. AngioVue optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) device was used to evaluate the retinal microvascular structure.

Evaluation of parafoveal vascular density using optical coherence tomography angiography in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy.

Using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), we sought to evaluate parafoveal vascular density (VD) in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Our study included 43 patients with a diagnosis of CSCR and 40 healthy controls. Ophthalmologic examination findings and OCTA measurements of the participants were retrospectively analysed.

Diabetic papillopathy treated with intravitreal ranibizumab.

In this report, we present a case of diabetic papillopathy that resolved after a single dose of intravitreal ranibizumab injection. A 50-year-old male presented with painless visual loss in his right eye. His visual acuity was 1/10 in the right eye and 10/10 in the left eye.

Topical cyclosporine a 0.05% eyedrops in the treatment of vernal keratoconjunctivitis - randomized placebo-controlled trial.

Background: Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a chronic, bilateral inflammation of the conjunctiva that mostly affects children and young adult males. Management of VKC is primarily aimed at reducing symptoms and preventing serious vision threatening sequelae.

Objectives: To assess the efficacy of topical cyclosporine A (CsA) 0.

Evaluation of cutaneous palpebral anthrax.

Context: Anthrax is a rare disease caused by Bacillus anthracis. Antrax is zoonotic disease and is often encountered in persons engaged in animal husbandry. Cutaneous anthrax is approximately 95% of anthrax in humans.
