Neuroretinitis With Severe Macular Edema in Dual Infection: Challenges in Management.

Neuroretinitis is a potentially vision-threatening condition distinguished by swelling of the optic disc followed by the emergence of a macular star pattern. The majority of these clinical observations are typically linked to infections caused by bacteria, parasites, or viruses. We report a case of dual infections in neuroretinitis complicated with severe macular edema.

Intravitreal Anti-vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (Anti-VEGF) Therapy for Valsalva Related Sub-internal Limiting Membrane (Sub-ILM) Macular Haemorrhage: A Case Report.

Valsalva retinopathy is an uncommon type of retinopathy that manifests as a rapid and painless vision decline, typically observed in young individuals without prior medical conditions. This condition arises from an elevated pressure within the veins of the eye, causing preretinal haemorrhage with a notable tendency to impact the macula. We describe here a case of valsalva-related sub-internal limiting membrane (sub-ILM) macular haemorrhage which was successfully treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF).

The Twilight Zone Where Margins Are Blurred: A Retrospective Analysis of Unilateral and Bilateral Optic Disc Swelling in a Tertiary Center in Malaysia.

Background To analyze the etiology of optic disc swelling (ODS) and compare the clinical features between non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION) and optic neuritis (ON) at our center from January 2019 to January 2020. Methodology Clinical records of all patients who presented with ODS between January 2019 and January 2020 were reviewed. The collected data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows (Version 23.

Factors affecting central macular thickness of diabetic macular oedema patients after an induction treatment of intravitreal ranibizumab.

Objective: Intravitreal ranibizumab is one of the anti-vascular endothelial growth factors used for the treatment of diabetic macular oedema, not always successfully. We aimed to identify the factors affecting the changes of central macular thickness after induction treatment with intravitreal ranibizumab, to predict the treatment effect and facilitate early treatment decisions.

Methods: Cross-sectional study involving a retrospective record review of diabetic macular oedema patients who received an induction treatment of three monthly 0.

MicroRNA and Their Potential Role in Conjunctival Disorders.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are the small noncoding RNA molecules which regulate target gene expression posttranscriptionally. They are known to regulate key cellular processes like inflammation, cell differentiation, cell proliferation, and cell apoptosis across various ocular diseases. Due to their easier access, recent focus has been laid on the investigation of miRNA expression and their involvement in several conjunctival diseases.
