Enhanced visualization of acute macular neuroretinopathy by Heidelberg Retina Tomography.

We report Heidelberg Retina Tomography (HRT) findings in a case of bilateral acute macular neuroretinopathy in a 22-year-old man. In addition to fundus photography, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography, and visual field testing, HRT scans of the macula were performed early in the disease and at a follow up of 2 months. We found typical paracentral scotomata in visual field testing corresponding to sharply delineated, hyporeflective areas of the macula as visualized in HRT II scans.

Photoscreening for diabetic retinopathy: a comparison of image quality between film photography and digital imaging.

Purpose: Retinal images from patients attending an urban screening centre before and after the transition from film photography to digital image acquisition were analysed for quality of image.

Methods: A total of 1946 diabetic patients, aged 12-92 years (mean 55.6 +/- 14.

Comparison of endothelial cell count using confocal and contact specular microscopy.

Precise examination of the corneal endothelium has become increasingly important due to the growing number of intraocular and corneal procedures. The purpose of this study was to compare prospectively the corneal endothelial cell count in normal eyes obtained by confocal and specular microscopy. Central corneal endothelial cell densities of 42 eyes from 42 patients were measured by confocal and contact specular microscopy.
