Purpose: To quantitatively explore preretinal abnormal tissue (PAT) in macula-on rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) before and after surgery.
Methods: In this case-series study, PAT was detected by en-face optical coherence tomography images with custom slabs in eyes that underwent pars plana vitrectomy and SF6 for macula-on RRD.Main outcome measures were PAT area at baseline, 3-month and 6-month follow-up, and its relative change.
Purpose: To identify novel quantitative parameters for evaluating photoreceptor loss in full-thickness macular holes (FTMH), exploring their potential clinical impact on postoperative functional and anatomical recovery.
Methods: This pilot study enrolled 38 eyes from 38 patients diagnosed with FTMH. Preoperatively, eyes underwent analysis and were subsequently followed for six months post-surgery.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess the effects of performing Internal Limiting Membrane (ILM) peeling during surgery on patients with small full thickness macular holes (FTMHs) compared to those who didn't have this procedure.
- - A total of 42 patients were observed, and while both groups showed improvements in visual function and macular health over time, the ILM peeling group had a higher rate of macular hole closure (100% vs. 90%).
- - Ultimately, there were no significant anatomical or functional differences between the two groups after six months, suggesting that ILM peeling may not be necessary for small FTMHs.
Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate demographic, anatomical, angiographic, and functional parameters in patients suffering from polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV).
Methods: Sixty eyes of 60 patients with a definite diagnosis of treatment-naïve exudative unilateral PCV were evaluated in this retrospective study. Fellow eyes and age-matched healthy subjects were enrolled as comparison.
Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated how vitreoretinal interface (VRI) conditions affect the results of Brolucizumab injections in patients with age-related macular neovascularization (MNV).
- The research included 40 patients divided into two groups: one with VRI alterations and one without, focusing on various eye health measures like visual acuity and fluid presence.
- Findings showed that while VRI did impact the presence of certain types of fluid in the eyes, overall macular thickness and visual function remained similar between the two groups.
