Background/purpose: We describe a case of full-thickness macular hole formation in a patient with exudative age-related macular degeneration after an intravitreal ranibizumab injection and its surgical management.
Methods: This case is a retrospective, interventional case report.
Results: A 77-year-old woman with bilateral exudative age-related macular degeneration and pre-existing retinal pigment epithelium tear developed a full-thickness macular hole after intravitreal ranibizumab.
Purpose: Previous studies have shown that the onset of high-contrast, fast reversing patterned stimuli induces rapid blood flow increase in retinal vessels in association with slow changes of the steady-state pattern electroretinogram (PERG) signal. We tested the hypothesis that adaptive PERG changes of normal controls differed from those of glaucoma suspects and patients with early manifest glaucoma.
Methods: Subjects were 42 glaucoma suspects (Standard Automated Perimetry-MD -0.
