Diabetic Retinopathy Screening at the Point of Care (DR SPOC): detecting undiagnosed and vision-threatening retinopathy by integrating portable technologies within existing services.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in a low socioeconomic region of a high-income country, as well as determine the diagnostic utility of point-of-care screening for high-risk populations in tertiary care settings.

Research Design And Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of patients with diabetes attending foot ulcer or integrated care diabetes clinics at two Western Sydney hospitals (n=273). DR was assessed using portable, two-field, non-mydriatic fundus photography and combined electroretinogram/ pupillometry (ERG).

Panophthalmitis and Orbital Inflammation with Cavernous Sinus Thrombosis Following Cataract Surgery.

Background: Panophthalmitis is a severe inflammation of the globe that can result as a rare complication of ophthalmic surgery. In severe cases, it may also be associated with orbital inflammation and cavernous sinus thrombosis.

Purpose: This case demonstrates a rare and life-threatening post-operative complication of cataract surgery.

Changing patterns in paediatric optic atrophy aetiology: 1979 to 2015.

Background: To evaluate the aetiology of paediatric optic atrophy in an Australian population.

Design: Retrospective review of medical records was conducted at The Children's Hospital at Westmead, Sydney, Australia.

Participants: Two hundred twenty-seven subjects <16 years who were diagnosed with optic atrophy on fundoscopic examination between 1979 and 2015 were included in the study.

Visual outcomes and late complications in paediatric orbital rhabdomyosarcoma.

Background: Orbital rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare but important malignancy for an ophthalmologist. We aimed to review the management and outcome, including late orbital complications and visual acuity over 25 years from a specialist paediatric ophthalmology department.

Design: This was a retrospective longitudinal case series.

Intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide as adjunctive treatment with systemic therapy for uveitic macular edema.

Purpose: To report the outcome of a single intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection as an adjunctive treatment with systemic medication for refractory uveitic cystoid macular edema (CME).

Methods: This was a retrospective, noncomparative, interventional case series. Medical records of 25 patients (35 eyes) with quiescent uveitic CME who were treated with oral immunosuppressive therapy and underwent 4 mg/0.
