Purpose: To study the inter-eye asymmetry in cases diagnosed with type 2 macular telangiectasia (MacTel).
Methods: Herein, type 2 MacTel cases were staged as per Gass and Blodi classification with multiple imaging techniques. Based on disease stage symmetry, two groups identified.
Clinical Relevance: Posterior microphthalmos (PM) is a rare developmental disorder characterised by high hyperopia, short axial length, presence of retinal papillomacular fold and relatively normal anterior segment findings.
Background: The purpose of the study was to compare the retinal arcade distance from fovea between PM cases and to correlate axial shortening in PM eyes with imaging findings.
Methods: This retrospective, comparative case series included 24 eyes of 12 patients with PM as cases and an equal number of age- and sex-matched controls.
A woman in her late twenties presented with blurring of vision in the right eye for 6 years. Retinoscopy showed a scissoring reflex in the right eye with best spectacle-corrected visual acuity of 20/40 in the right eye and 20/20 in the left eye. Slit-lamp examination of the right eye showed superior crescentic thinning with conjunctivalisation and lipid deposition while the left eye was normal.

Methods: In this retrospective comparative case series, confirmed cases of peripheral and macular PCV cases on indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) were included. The various demographic features, imaging characteristics and clinical course between cases with peripheral and macular PCV were compared and analysed.
A 28-year-old female who underwent an uneventful femtosecond laser enabled keratoplasty (FLEK) in her left eye presented with pain, redness, and blurring of vision in the operated eye two weeks after getting immunized with COVID-19 vector vaccine (ChAdOx1 nCoV19 Vaccine Recombinant COVISHIELD, AstraZeneca). Slit-lamp examination showed donor stromal edema with Descemet's membrane folds and Khodadoust line (KP's on endothelium) with anterior chamber cells and flare. The patient was diagnosed with acute corneal graft rejection and advised hourly topical steroids with cycloplegics and oral steroids.

Methods: In this single-center, retrospective study, patients with bridge arch-shaped SRF and choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM) were included.
Results: Overall, 623 eyes in 431 patients with chronic CNVM were identified, and 24 eyes (4%) in 21 patients showed bridge arch-shaped SRF.
