Choroidal neovascularization silent on optical coherence tomography: report of two cases.

Herein, we report two cases of vision loss after successful cataract surgery, associated with drusenoid retinal pigment epithelial detachment without features of choroidal neovascularization on optical coherence tomography along with angiographic examinations suggestive of choroidal neovascularization in which anatomical and functional improvements were achieved with intravitreal injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor.

Photoreceptor Arrangement Changes Secondary to Choroidal Nevus.

Importance: Although mostly asymptomatic, patients with choroidal nevi carry a moderate risk for malignant transformation and visual loss. A novel noninvasive imaging assessment could change the current clinical evaluation of choroidal nevi.

Observation: Three patients with a recent diagnosis of choroidal nevi underwent a novel adaptive optical assessment that detected potential photoreceptor abnormalities in the retina overlying the choroidal nevi.

Orbital invasion by squamous cell carcinoma arising in multiple epidermoid cysts.

Epidermal or epidermoid cysts usually are benign, solitary-growing masses located in the mid- or lower dermis. They are believed to derive from pilosebaceous units and are lined with an epidermis-like epithelium including a granular cell layer. The occurrence of multiple epidermal cysts on the scalp of nonsyndromic patients is extremely rare.

Distribution of spontaneous inter-blink interval in repeated measurements with and without topical ocular anesthesia.

Purpose: To determine if the distribution of inter-blink time intervals is constant with repeated measurements with and without topical ocular anesthesia.

Methods: Inter-blink time was measured in 15 normal subjects ranging from 19 to 32 years (mean ± SD= 23.9 ± 3.
