Article Synopsis
- Purpose of the Study
- : The research aimed to investigate the changes in retinal microvasculature and sensitivity in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) before the onset of diabetic retinopathy (DR).
- Methods and Findings
- : In total, 62 eyes from 31 T1D patients (without DR and with mild DR) and 40 eyes from 20 healthy controls were examined using OCTA for vascular parameters and microperimetry for retinal sensitivity. No significant differences in retinal measurements were found between the T1D groups but notable differences were observed when compared to healthy controls.
- Conclusions
- : The study concluded that patients with T1D, even without DR
Objective: To describe ocular hypertension cases after using a new aflibercept prefilled syringe and to assess the main characteristics of these eyes and their possible association with intraocular pressure (IOP) changes.
Methods: Case series. We reported all the cases of ocular hypertension following aflibercept prefilled syringes (PFS) treatment in our department between April 2021 and December 2023.
Purpose: To describe a unique complication of macular hole repair surgery using a subretinal human amniotic membrane plug.
Methods: Retrospective, interventional case report.
Results: A 71-year-old man presented with a chronic full-thickness macular hole in his left eye.
Bilateral macular hole is a rare secondary effect of tamoxifen, a condition which is probably underdiagnosed. We describe the case of a 63-year-old woman who had received low-dose treatment with tamoxifen for 10 years. She presented with a best-corrected visual acuity of 20/40 in both eyes and bilateral macular hole with posterior hyaloid attachment.
