Ten years follow-up after deep sclerectomy with collagen implant.

Purpose: To evaluate the long-term success rate and complications of nonpenetrating deep sclerectomy with collagen implant in open-angle glaucoma.

Patients And Methods: Clinical, prospective, monocentric, nonrandomized, unmasked study on 105 patients with medically uncontrolled glaucoma. A standard procedure deep sclerectomy with collagen implant was performed.

Optical coherence tomography and multifocal electroretinogram findings in chronic solar retinopathy.

Purpose: To correlate the structural and functional retinal defects, which are induced photochemically in chronic solar retinopathy.

Design: Observational case report.

Methods: Four emmetropic eyes of two patients, previously diagnosed with chronic solar retinopathy, were evaluated by optical coherence tomography (OCT), multifocal electroretinography, and fluorescein angiography.

Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome following simultaneous hepatitis-A and yellow fever vaccination.

Purpose: To report a case of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) following simultaneous hepatitis-A virus (HAV) and yellow fever (YF) vaccination.

Methods: Review of the clinical, laboratory, photographic, and angiographic records of a patient suffering from MEWDS.

Results: A healthy 50-year-old woman presented with rapidly progressive left-eye visual loss, associated with photopsias and a para-central scotoma, one week after receiving simultaneous HAV and YF vaccination.

Cavernous sinus thrombosis elicited by a central retinal vein venous stasis retinopathy.

Background: Central retinal vein occlusion is a relatively common retinal disorder in the elderly, and those with cardiovascular or thrombophilic risk factors are at increased risk. Although still unsatisfying, some treatments for the acute and chronic phases have been established based on randomized studies. However, for rare conditions mimicking central retinal vein occlusion, treatment of the acute phase should be targeted at etiology.

[Morganella morganii endophthalmitis after vitrectomy: case report and review of the literature].

Background: Postoperative bacterial endophthalmitis are caused in 80 % of the cases by the patient's own flora. Most of the time, bacterial agents are Gram-positive ((2/3) of cases) and more rarely Gram-negative ((1/3) of cases). Usually, Pseudomonas sp, Proteus sp or Klebsiella sp are isolated, but very rarely Morganella morganii.
