Purpose: To assess the differences in the measurement of central foveal thickness (CFT) in patients with macular edema (ME) between two display modes (1:1 pixel and 1:1 micron) on optical coherence tomography (OCT).

Methods: Group A consisted of participants with well-horizontal OCT B-scan images and group B consisted of participants with tilted OCT B-scan.
Introduction: Pterygium is a benign conjunctival fibrovascular neoformation progressively encroaching on the cornea, it can cause corneal distortion and induce astigmatism, or aggravate pre-existing physiological astigmatism, which is defined as ≤ 0.50 D and not requiring optical correction. The radical treatment of pterygium is purely surgical, with conjunctivo-limbal grafting and conjunctival autografting emerging as the surgical techniques of choice.

- An ocular examination revealed a 4cm motile worm under the conjunctiva of the right eye, prompting surgical extraction.
- The finding highlights the importance of recognizing loiasis in clinical settings due to population movements that can introduce it to new areas.
