Purpose: Analyze the peripheral vitreoretinal interface with widefield optical coherence tomography.

Methods: Retrospective chart analysis and widefield optical coherence tomography in 120 consecutive cases of rhegmatogenous pathology.

Results: There were 166 lesions in 120 eyes, including 106 horseshoe tears, 22 operculated holes, 30 nonoperculated holes, six giant tears, and two peripheral lamellar defects followed for 6.

Purpose: To analyze the features of myopic macular schisis (MMS) in different retinal layers and to explore the role of Müller cells in the pathophysiology of such condition.

Methods: Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) images of myopic eyes with staphyloma and macular schisis were reviewed. The morphological features of MMS were analyzed and correlated with their geographical location in the parafoveal and perifoveal region.

Purpose: To describe and report the anatomical and functional outcomes of a novel sutureless peripheral intravascular catheter (PIVC)-assisted scleral fixation of three-piece IOL.

Methods: A retrospective chart review of all patients who underwent scleral fixation surgery performed by a single surgeon was conducted. In all cases, a novel scleral fixation technique of three-piece IOL was performed with the aid of a 24-gauge PIVC cannula.

Purpose: To describe the presence of specific morphological characteristics of idiopathic, full-thickness macular hole (MH) potentially influencing postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and surgical outcomes.

Design: Retrospective, multicenter and interventional case series.

Methods: Clinical charts and multimodal imaging pictures of 149 eyes of 143 consecutive patients diagnosed with MH, treated surgically and with a minimum follow-up of 12 months, were reviewed.
