Purpose: Lacking a standard technique, the surgical management of aphakia without capsular support remains to be optimized. The goal of this study is to analyze results for the Carlevale FIL-SSF intraocular lens and propose surgical recommendations.
Patients And Methods: The P1.
Introduction: The goal of the present study was to analyze the implementation and clinical efficacy of OdySight, a mobile medical application for the remote monitoring of patients with maculopathy.
Materials And Methods: In all, 60 patients with edematous maculopathies receiving traditional clinical treatment (PRN or Treat & Extend) were provided with OdySight to detect changes in visual acuity from home. To determine both the feasibility and reliability of the application, its use by patients (both testing and game play), as well as the processing of alerts by the clinical team, were analyzed during the first year.
Purpose: To evaluate the different mechanisms of retinal detachment recurrence after retinectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD) complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) and to study its outcome and prognosis.
Methods: Retrospective, multicenter study conducted between January 2009 and November 2016. Retrospective review of 56 patients with recurrent RD (RRD) after a first relaxing retinectomy.
Purpose: The objective was to study long-term real-life efficacy and safety of repeated Ozurdex® injections and factors associated with macular edema (ME) resolution after retinal vein occlusion.
Methods: Patients with ME after retinal vein occlusion, receiving Ozurdex®, were included to assess the following endpoints: visual acuity and central retinal thickness, retreatment, number of injections, side effects and ME resolution. ME resolution was defined as permanent discontinuation of intravitreal injections (IVTs) for at least 6 months after the last IVT.
Purpose: To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of the dexamethasone intravitreal implant Ozurdex® in the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME).
Methods: This was a retrospective noncomparative study. A total of 23 patients with DME followed for at least 12 months were included.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal implant of dexamethasone (Ozurdex®) in diabetic macular edema (DME).
Methods: This was a retrospective multicenter noncomparative study. Seventy-eight patients with DME followed for at least 6 months were included (P1.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficiency and safety of intravitreal implant of 0.7mg dexamathasone in visual impairment due to diabetic macular edema (DME).
Materials And Methods: This was a retrospective, multicenter, study.
Purpose: To evaluate the incidence, characteristics and risk factors for rhegmatogenous complications of transconjunctival sutureless 23-gauge vitrectomy (TSV) in macular surgery. The results were correlated with those reported in the literature.
Methods: Multicentric retrospective study of a cohort of patients undergoing macular surgery by 23-gauge TSV between January 2009 and June 2010.

We report the case of a patient with a central vein occlusion associated with perivenular whitening. The "en-face" spectral domain OCT precisely demonstrated the ischemic area. This case underscores the utility of the "en-face" mode in the follow-up CRVO.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe report the case of a 67-year-old woman who underwent epiretinal membrane surgery with internal limiting membrane peeling via a 23-gauge vitrectomy. Postoperative OCT and fundus photography revealed two forms of cicatrization: a dissociation of the retinal nerve fiber layer (DONFL) over the entire area of internal limiting membrane peeling, and an arcuate zone of retinal nerve fiber layer swelling (SANFL) at the site where the peeling had been initiated. Functionally, the patient demonstrated improved postoperative near acuity and a decrease in metamorphopsia.

A 39-year-old man presented with a recurrence of a right-sided proptosis without signs of orbital inflammation. The patient had undergone bilateral transpalpebral bony orbital decompression for dysthyroid orbitopathy 2 years prior.

An association between tadalafil and central serous chorioretinopathy could involve phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors and be a risk factor of central serous chorioretinopathy.

We report the case of a patient with Hallermann-Streiff-François syndrome, with typical presentation of white bilateral cataract. The surgical treatment showed morphological retinal abnormalities, which resulted in an exudative retinal detachment. This case underscores the importance of paying special attention during surgical treatment of cataract in this type of patient.

Material And Methods: We studied 33 eyes from 20 separate patients divided into two groups: group one consisted of 19 eyes with isolated trabeculodysgenesis and group two 14 eyes associated with Sturge-Weber-Krabbe syndrome, angiomatosis, or Peters syndrome. All patients underwent filtering surgery between 1995 and 2006.
Introduction: We report a case of a patient with orbital pseudotumors associated with Riedel's thyroiditis. This association of unknown etiology may be related to idiopathic multifocal fibrosclerosis that includes retroperitoneal fibrosis, mediastinal fibrosis, sclerosing cholangitis, Riedel's thyroiditis, and orbital pseudotumors.
Case Report: A 44-year-old woman was referred for a bilateral inflammatory malignant exophthalmos with progressive optical neuropathy (bilateral visual acuity<1/20).

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare endothelial cell density and central corneal thickness between eyes with congenital glaucoma and normal eyes.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a prospective study of pediatric patients between 3 and 18 years of age. Group A comprised 401 normal eyes and group B 69 glaucoma eyes, categorized into three subgroups: 3-4, 5-9, and 10 or more years of age.
Purpose: To evaluate anterior segment modifications after penetrating keratoplasty (PKP), previous anterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) removal, and Verisyse IOL (AMO) implantation over the iris or under the iris for the treatment of pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK) using ultrasound biomicroscopy.
Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Poitiers University Hospital, Poitiers, France.
Methods: A prospective randomized comparative case series included 27 patients (27 eyes) with PBK who had PKP and implantation of a Verisyse VRSA54 aphakic IOL.
