Sclerochoroidal calcification (SCC) is a rare disease which is characterized by calcium deposition in the sclera. The choroid is secondarily involved. Typical localization is in the midperipheral region, outside the vascular arcades.

Methods: Patients having RB who underwent post-treatment RetCam fundus photography and FA under general anesthesia between February 2020 and February 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: 78 eyes of 70 patients with RB were included.

Purpose: We report a case of idiopathic sclerochoroidal calcification (SCC) evaluated with multimodal imaging including swept source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA).
Case Presentation: A 52-year-old man was diagnosed with sclerochoroidal calcification in the left eye. Multimodal imaging revealed mixed hypoautofluorescence and hyperautofluorescence on fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging; an acoustically solid lesion with hyperreflective deposits on ultrasonography (USG); a rocky configuration with marked disruption of outer retinal layers and abrupt transition from normal to tumor tissue on swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT); hyporeflective plexus in the outer retinal and choroidal slabs and a retinochoroidal shunt vessel on SS-OCTA; and central hypofluorescence with intervening patchy hyperfluorescent areas, diffuse peripheral window defects, and a retinochoroidal shunt vessel on fluorescein angiography (FA).
Purpose: To investigate the distribution of pseudoretinoblastoma (PSRB) cases based on gender, age, and laterality.
Materials And Methods: The clinical records of 607 patients (851 eyes) who were referred for diagnosis of retinoblastoma or simulating conditions between October 1998 and May 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were stratified by age as follows: ≤1 year, >1-3 years, >3-5 years, and >5 years.

Purpose: To report wide-field fundus imaging and fluorescein angiography findings in conditions mimicking retinoblastoma (pseudoretinoblastoma).
Methods: The clinical and imaging records of 28 patients (36 eyes) imaged with RetCam 3 (Clarity Medical Systems, Inc) wide-field fundus photography and fluorescein angiography who were diagnosed as having various pseudoretinoblastoma disorders between February 2020 and August 2021 were retrospectively evaluated.
Results: Most patients were referred with suspicion of retinoblastoma.
Purpose: To compare the efficacy of transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT), indocyanine green-enhanced TTT (ICG-TTT), and photodynamic therapy (PDT) in the management of circumscribed choroidal hemangioma (CCH) and to investigate the baseline clinical features effecting treatment outcomes METHODS: Retrospective review of clinical records of 60 eyes with CCH which underwent TTT (25), ICG-TTT (22), or PDT (13). Main study outcomes were 1) final visual acuity (VA) ≤20/200, 2) <2 Snellen lines VA increase, 3) persistent subretinal fluid (SRF), and 4) <20% decrease in tumor thickness.
Results: Multivariable factors associated with final VA ≤20/200 included longer duration of symptoms (p = 0.
