Acute panendothelial retinal leakage in a patient with diabetes mellitus type 1 with a poor metabolic control.

Ophthalmological diabetic complications are one of the main causes of blindness worldwide, so careful diagnostic and management is important. The screening plans implemented in our population made possible an early diagnosis and treatment, trying to reduce the consequences. Diabetic retinopathy is widely known, however we present the case of a rare retinal condition, acute panedothelial retinal leakage.

Ocular loiasis affecting a child and its assessment by Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography.

A 9-year-old girl from Equatorial Guinea presented to the emergency department complaining of foreign body sensation in her right eye. A thin and large, translucent, slowly moving, coiled worm was observed underneath the conjunctiva. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography revealed hyperreflective small areas surrounded by larger hyporeflective areas into the subconjunctival space.

Iatrogenic retinal central artery occlusion after a cerebral digital subtraction angiography.

Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a technique used in interventional radiology for the diagnosis of vascular cerebral conditions. Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is a complication of endovascular procedures that involve atherosclerotic plaque removal with subsequent embolisation. The case is presented on a patient who noticed a sudden vision loss during a DSA.
