THERAPEUTIC REFRACTIVE VITRECTOMY (TRV) FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF VITREOUS FLOATERS AND OPACITIES (VFO) ASSESSED BY THE STANDARDIZED AND KINETIC ANATOMICAL AND FUNCTIONAL TESTING OF VITREOUS FLOATERS AND OPACITIES (SK VFO TEST).

Purpose: Propose new terminology and evaluate the effectiveness of Therapeutic Refractive Vitrectomy (TRV) for selective removal of vitreous floaters and opacities (VFO) utilizing Standardized Kinetic Anatomical Functional Testing of VFO (SK VFO Test) and new ultra widefield (UWF) OCT imaging techniques.

Methods: Retrospective analysis. Twenty eyes underwent TRV for symptomatic VFO.

Visualization and Identification of Silicone Oil Emulsification Using Dynamic Infrared Confocal Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscopy.

Introduction: Silicone oil (SO) is a crucial agent used as an intraocular tamponade in the treatment of complex vitreoretinal diseases. Despite its effectiveness, SO is prone to emulsification, which can lead to significant and sometimes irreversible complications in both the anterior and posterior segments of the eye. The detection and monitoring of SO emulsification are therefore of paramount importance.

New 200° Single-Capture Color Red-Green-Blue Ultra-Widefield Retinal Imaging Technology: First Clinical Experience.

Background And Objective: We investigated the additive clinical benefits of a new ultra-widefield (UWF) red-green-blue (RGB) imaging technology.

Patients And Methods: This was a retrospective, observational, single-center study of 86 consecutive patients (172 eyes). UWF red-green (RG) and RGB images were taken using a new Optos California (Optos Plc).

New Imaging Technology for Simultaneous Multiwavelength-UWF Fundus Fluorescein Angiography and Indocyanine Green Angiography With Navigated Central and Peripheral SS-OCT.

Objective: Our aim was to assess central and peripheral retinal and choroidal diseases using novel simultaneous multiwavelength-ultra-widefield (MW-UWF) fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA)/indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) with navigated central and peripheral swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) technology.

Methods: Retrospective evaluation was carried out of 30 consecutive patients (60 eyes) who underwent UWF red/green (RG), infrared (IR), FFA and ICGA with simultaneous navigated SS-OCT using Optos Silverstone (Optos PLC). Angiographic retinal and choroidal findings in vascular pathologies and their relationship with the vitreoretinal interface (VRI) were assessed.

New Terminology and Methodology for the Assessment of the Vitreous, Its Floaters and Opacities, and Their Effect on Vision: Standardized and Kinetic Anatomical and Functional Testing of Vitreous Floaters and Opacities (SK VFO Test).

Objective: To introduce VFO and SK VFO Test: new, more representative terminology for symptoms of vitreous floaters/opacities (VFO) and new standardized kinetic (SK) anatomical-functional assessment.

Materials And Methods: Eight eyes underwent before-after limited vitrectomy (LV): best-corrected visual acuity, low-luminance visual acuity, Minnesota Low Vision Reading Chart near visual acuity in logMAR, contrast sensitivity function (CV1000E), and straylight measurements (SM) (HDA/LDA/C-Quant). SK infrared confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SK IRcSLO) and swept-source widefield optical coherence tomography (SS-WF-OCT) identified VFO and posterior vitreous detachment (PVD).

Unusual extraconal orbital location of a cavernous hemangioma.

Cavernous hemangioma is the most common benign orbital and vascular tumor in adults. It is mostly located intraconally. Nevertheless, when the location is extraconal, the displacement of the globe is opposite the tumor's position.

BRAF and NRAS prognostic values in conjunctival melanoma: analysis and literature review.

Purpose: Conjunctival melanoma is a rare and aggressive tumor with a propensity for regional and distant metastases. This study aimed to analyze BRAF/NRAS markers in conjunctival melanoma and their relationship with tumor recurrences and patient prognosis.

Methods: This retrospective, observational, single-center study included consecutive patients with an anatomopathological diagnosis of conjunctival melanoma, registered between January 1992 and December 2019.

Multimodal Imaging Features of Focal Scleral Nodule.

This article describes a 63-year-old woman with a yellow-white mass in the inferior juxtapapillary region discovered on routine ocular examination. She was diagnosed as solitary idiopathic choroiditis (SIC) after an extensive ocular examination. SIC is a rare condition of unknown aetiology that can sometimes be mistaken as inflammatory processes or intraocular tumors.
