Subthreshold laser treatment for non-center involved diabetic macular edema via non-damaging retinal laser therapy (NRT).

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of subthreshold laser treatment via non-damaging retinal laser therapy (NRT) in patients with non-center involved diabetic macular edema (non-CI DME).

Methods: In this prospective controlled study, NRT with 577 nm wavelength was performed to the edematous inner subfields as needed at 3 monthly intervals, while the control group received no treatment. If CI-DME developed in either group, intravitreal anti-VEGF was performed and the eye was excluded from subsequent analysis.

Consequences of Real-World Surveillance of Fellow Eyes in Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

This study investigated whether the interval of monitoring at-risk, fellow eyes of patients with unilateral neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) has any bearing on the severity of the disease at the time of diagnosis. The study comprised a retrospective, cross-sectional comparative case series of treatment-naïve eyes in patients who were diagnosed sequentially with nAMD. We compared the visual acuity (VA) and central macular thickness (CMT) of patients who were actively receiving intravitreal injections (IVIs) of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents at the time of second eye diagnosis with the VA and CMT of patients who had ceased treatment in their first eye because of reaching end-stages of disease.

SPONTANEOUS SUPRACHOROIDAL HEMORRHAGE ASSOCIATED WITH IATROGENIC COAGULOPATHY.

Purpose: To present a case of spontaneous suprachoroidal hemorrhage in a patient on anticoagulation.

Methods: Single case report.

Results: A 68-year-old woman with a history of hypertension, atherosclerosis, and heart failure presented with massive spontaneous suprachoroidal hemorrhage in the left eye.
