Purpose: To evaluate the multimodal imaging including optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) findings in patients with posterior microphthalmos (PM).
Methods: In an observational case series, four eyes of two patients, eight and twenty-three years old, with clinical proven PM underwent complete ophthalmic examination, including refraction, fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), OCTA, B-scan ultrasonography, axial length measurement using IOL Master optical measuring, and Pentacam evaluation.
Results: Both patients were high hyperopic with partial thickness retinal fold in macula, retinoschisis, and foveal hypoplasia.
Objective: Behcet's disease (BD), as a vasculitis, can affect small and large vessels. As dermatoscopy has been shown to improve the accuracy in diagnosis of various skin lesions especially vascular patterns, we set this study to find if there is any characteristic pattern in the dermatoscopy of Behcet's mucocutaneous lesions.
Methods: This prospective cross-sectional observational study designed to evaluate dermatoscopic features of Behcet's mucocutaneous lesions.
Aim: To compare the lifetime and annual economic burden of spectacles, contact lenses, and refractive surgery in correction of refractive errors.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with convenience sampling which 120 patients were interviewed in a tertiary referral hospital in the Iranian health care system. The bottom-up based cost of illness approach was estimated using a face-to-face interview to assess the direct and indirect cost of different refractive errors correction of any correction technologies.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injection on macular edema (ME) secondary to Behcet's disease.
Methods: This prospective case series included 15 patients with bilateral ME due to Behcet's disease. Intravitreal bevacizumab was injected into the more severely involved eye; the contralateral eye was evaluated as the control.
