Article Synopsis
- A 7-year-old girl had unilateral blepharitis for one month after contact with a cat, initially misdiagnosed as a herpetic infection.
- Symptoms included itching and loss of eyelashes on her right eyelid, but her visual acuity remained normal at 20/20.
- A slit lamp examination showed anterior blepharitis with madarosis (loss of eyelashes), broken eyelashes, and abnormal lesions on the right lower eyelid, while the left eyelid appeared normal.
Purpose: To analyze the macular microvascular network and the correlations between visual acuity and quantitative parameters using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in eyes with retinal vein occlusion (RVO).
Methods: We conducted a prospective cross-sectional study including patients with unilateral RVO. We performed 4.
Uveal effusion syndrome describes serous detachments of the choroid and ciliary body with exudative retinal detachment. It is a complication following glaucoma filtering surgeries such as trabeculectomy especially in nanophthalmic eyes. We report a rare case of a 42-year-old-woman, with nanophtalmos, who developed posterior serous retinal detachment and uveal effusions after trabeculectomy for chronic angle closure glaucoma.

Our purpose was to describe the utility of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) in its diagnosis and management.

Methods: We conducted an observational prospective study in the ophthalmology department of Habib Thameur Hospital in Tunis, which included 17 eyes of patients with unilateral BRVO. We studied the microvascular abnormalities and areas of capillary non-perfusion in the deep and superficial capillary plexuses (DCP, SCP).
Purpose: To investigate whether spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) is helpful for the diagnosis and prognosis of foveal hypoplasia in patients with overt nystagmus.
Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted in 48 patients with overt nystagmus. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmic examination including best corrected visual acuity, biomicroscopic and fundus examinations.
