Purpose: To estimate the risk of glaucoma or sustained ocular hypertension (OHT) related to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections for age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Design: Retrospective chart review.
Subjects: Patients who received unilateral anti-VEGF injections for AMD at the Wheaton Eye Clinic (IL).
Purpose: To report the feasibility of retinal thickness mapping for evaluating thickness differences in retinal areas with and without leakage shown by fluorescein angiography for patients who have age-related macular degeneration with choroidal neovascularization.
Methods: A custom-built version of the retinal thickness analyzer was used for thickness mapping. Retinal thickness was defined as the separation between vitreoretinal and pigment epithelium-choroid interfaces.
Purpose: To determine the extent of electrophysiologic dysfunction in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).
Design: Prospective observational case series.
Participants: Six patients with unilateral CSC (mean age, 40 years) were recruited into the study.
Aim: To determine the relation between alterations in the retinal topography and thickness, visual acuity, and retinal pigment epithelium hypopigmentation in atrophic age related macular degeneration (AMD).
Methods: 22 patients, mean age 74 (SD 8) years, with atrophic AMD were recruited. An optical imaging system based on the retinal thickness analyser (RTA) was applied to generate a series of 20 optical section images that encompass 2 mm x 2 mm retinal areas.
