Purpose: To evaluate the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and retinal structure in familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR).

Patients And Methods: Eighteen eyes with stage 1 or 2 FEVR and 20 control eyes were evaluated. The central retinal thickness (CRT), foveal inner retinal thickness (IRT), surface retinal vessel density (SRVD), and deep retinal vessel density (DRVD) were measured using optical coherence tomography.

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of pharmacologically induced mydriasis and miosis on kinetic perimetry findings in normal participants.

Methods: Thirty-eight eyes of 38 healthy young participants underwent kinetic perimetry (Octopus 900 perimeter) with III4e, I4e, I3e, I2e, and I1e stimuli. For each participant, 24 predetermined meridians with 15° intervals were automatically tested with a velocity of 3°/s under normal, mydriatic, and miotic conditions.
