Article Synopsis
- A 52-year-old woman developed periorbital necrotizing cellulitis two days after undergoing bilateral cosmetic lower blepharoplasty, leading to complications like ocular hypertension and decreased visual acuity.* -
- Diagnosis was confirmed with MRI, and treatment involved intravenous antibiotics, corticosteroids, and drainage surgery, revealing a pathogen resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics.* -
- This case is notable as it is the first reported instance of necrotizing cellulitis after blepharoplasty caused by a less virulent pathogen, differing from the previous six cases documented in literature.*
Purpose: To report the clinical results of lens capsular flap (LCF) transplantation in a patient with refractory medium macular hole (MH).
Methods: Case report.
Results: A 66-year-old female myopic patient with a history of medium macular hole (MH) was previously unsuccessfully treated by vitrectomy surgery, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and air-fluid exchange followed by 12% C2F6 tamponade into the vitreous cavity and face-down positioning.
Aims: To compare optic disc perfusion, radial peripapillary capillaries (RPC) and macular vascular density, between normal subjects and subjects with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) using spectral-domain OCT angiography (OCTA).
Methods: Sixteen eyes of patients with mild OSAS, 17 eyes with moderate OSAS, 20 eyes with severe OSAS on polygraphy and 28 controls were evaluated with OCTA RT XR Avanti (AngioVue software, Optovue Inc., Fremont, CA).
Purpose: To report the case of a patient whose retinal disease was found to be associated with a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma found 30 years after the apparent successful treatment of a classical Hodgkin lymphoma.
Methods: Observational case report.
Results: The authors describe the case of a 69-year-old man referred to their Department because of progressive, bilateral vision loss over the last few months.
