Accuracy of the postnatal growth and retinopathy of prematurity screening criteria in predicting prethreshold retinopathy of prematurity in the tertiary hospital, Bangkok, Thailand.

Purpose: The postnatal growth and retinopathy of prematurity (G-ROP), retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) predictive model, was developed in North America with high sensitivity and fewer infants examined. This study aimed to validate this model in Thai infants by assessing sensitivity and comparing it to the current American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) screening guideline.

Materials And Methods: The records of infants screened for ROP were retrospectively reviewed from 2015 to 2020.

Real-time diabetic retinopathy screening by deep learning in a multisite national screening programme: a prospective interventional cohort study.

Background: Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of preventable blindness, especially in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). Deep-learning systems have the potential to enhance diabetic retinopathy screenings in these settings, yet prospective studies assessing their usability and performance are scarce.

Methods: We did a prospective interventional cohort study to evaluate the real-world performance and feasibility of deploying a deep-learning system into the health-care system of Thailand.

Factors associated with the development of blepharoptosis after pars plana vitrectomy surgery.

Purpose: To determine the incidence and risk factors for developing blepharoptosis after vitrectomy surgery.

Methods: This prospective observational study conducted in patients who had vitrectomy surgery at the University of California, San Francisco. The patients' eyelids were photographed before, surgery and follow-up visits at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery.

Deep learning versus human graders for classifying diabetic retinopathy severity in a nationwide screening program.

Deep learning algorithms have been used to detect diabetic retinopathy (DR) with specialist-level accuracy. This study aims to validate one such algorithm on a large-scale clinical population, and compare the algorithm performance with that of human graders. A total of 25,326 gradable retinal images of patients with diabetes from the community-based, nationwide screening program of DR in Thailand were analyzed for DR severity and referable diabetic macular edema (DME).

Secondary Ocular Hypertension and the Risk of Glaucoma Surgery After Dexamethasone Intravitreal Implant in Routine Clinical Practice.

Background And Objectives: To determine the rate of ocular hypertension (OHT) after dexamethasone intravitreal implant in routine clinical practice and identify patient characteristics associated with a risk for glaucoma surgery.

Patients And Methods: The charts of 260 eyes from 221 patients with diabetic macular edema, retinal vein occlusion, uveitis, and macular edema secondary to various causes treated with one or more dexamethasone implants were reviewed. Intraocular pressure (IOP), medications, and glaucoma interventions were collected before and after implantation.

Conversion back to bevacizumab or ranibizumab for recurrent neovascular activity with aflibercept in age-related macular degeneration: a case series.

Background: Neovascular age-related macular degeneration often requires chronic therapy with anti-VEGF agents, and patients with recurrent disease are challenging to manage.

Methods: This retrospective case series evaluates patients who were switched from bevacizumab or ranibizumab to aflibercept and then back again because of recurrent fluid on optical coherence tomography (OCT) by reporting changes in OCT measurements over the course of medication changes.

Results: Twenty-one eyes in nineteen patients received an average of 20.

A CASE OF POSTERIOR UVEAL EFFUSION SYNDROME MASQUERADING AS UVEITIS.

Purpose: To report a case of posterior uveal effusion syndrome presented and treated as posterior uveitis.

Methods: We report one case of a 73-year-old woman with posterior uveal effusion syndrome who developed bilateral chorioretinal folds, treated as uveitis, who did not resolve on oral steroids.

Results: Nasal choroidal thickening and intraretinal fluid were present in both eyes, along with choroidal folds and yellowish pigmentary changes in the macula.

OUTER RETINAL ATROPHY ON SPECTRAL DOMAIN OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY AFTER RESOLUTION OF GLAUCOMA SURGERY-ASSOCIATED HYPOTONY MACULOPATHY.

Purpose: To report two cases of persistent central vision loss after resolution of filtration surgery-associated hypotony, corresponding with foveal outer retinal atrophy on spectral domain optical coherence tomography.

Methods: Retrospective observational case series. A retrospective chart review was conducted of two patients with persistent vision loss after normalization of intraocular pressure and resolution of glaucoma surgery-associated hypotony maculopathy.

Optic atrophy after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injection in diabetic patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy.

Objective: To study the prevalence of optic atrophy in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) who underwent intravitreal bevacizumab injection and risk factors associated with optic atrophy.

Material And Method: A retrospective case control study enrolled 269 cases (394 eyes) of patients with PDR, in which 166 cases (219 eyes) received intravitreal bevacizumab injection. Associated factors such as type of DM, hemoglobin A1c level, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, chronic kidney disease, previous intravitreal surgery retinal detachment, and vitreous hemorrhage were recorded.
