Assessing the Impact of Simulated Color Vision Deficiency on Ophthalmologists' Ability to Differentiate between Choroidal Melanoma and Choroidal Nevus.

Color vision deficiency (CVD) is an often-overlooked issue within the medical community, and its consequences remain insufficiently explored. We aim to evaluate how CVD affects diagnostic accuracy and distinguish between malignant choroidal melanoma and benign choroidal nevus among ophthalmologists. In this cross-sectional study, we engaged ophthalmologists through a web-based survey distributed via the professional ophthalmology society's social media channels.

Optimizing Surgical Management for Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment in Eyes with Active Retinoblastoma: A Safety-Driven Approach.

Intraocular surgeries are conventionally contraindicated for patients with active retinoblastoma (Rb) due to the potential risk of tumor dissemination. However, surgery is occasionally necessary to preserve vision in patients with a single eye when the eye is complicated by rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of surgical repair for RRD in pediatric patients with active Rb utilizing a non-drainage scleral buckling approach.

Presentation and management outcomes of Retinoblastoma among Syrian refugees in Jordan.

Purpose: The humanitarian crisis in Syria has had a profound impact on the entire region. In this study, we report the patterns of presentation and management outcomes of Syrian patients with Retinoblastoma (Rb) treated at a single tertiary cancer center in Jordan.

Methods And Materials: This is a retrospective comparative study of Syrian refugees and Jordanian citizens who had Rb between 2011 and 2020.

Cluster headache associated with oculomotor nerve palsy: A case report and review of literature.

Cluster headaches are a series of short, excruciating, and unilateral pain that happens for a short period at a time over days, weeks, or months and may awake people from sleep. It is situated behind, in, or around one eye only with possible radiation to the forehead at the same side. Cluster headache is characterized by many ocular features.

Bilateral Surgically Induced Necrotizing Scleritis After Pterygium Excision with Conjunctival Autograft: A Case Report.

Surgically induced necrotizing scleritis (SINS) is an immune-mediated condition that rarely occurs after ocular surgeries with a latency period of days to years. We present a case of a 49-year-old man who developed bilateral SINS two weeks after uneventful bilateral pterygium excision with conjunctival autografts. He was managed with a course of oral prednisolone, topical antibiotic ointment, topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and lubricants, and close follow-up and rheumatological consultation.

Lichen Planus Eruption Following Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 Vaccine Administration: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Lichen planus is an autoimmune inflammatory disease that can be associated with infections, drugs, and vaccines. Recently, it has been reported to occur following mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines, particularly the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. We present the first reported case of lichen planus that developed after five days following the administration of the first dose of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine in a 46-year-old healthy male.

Amblyopia screening for first and second-grade children in Jordan.

Aim: To share the results of a national screening program for amblyopia in school children in the north of Jordan.

Methods: This is a prospective national screening study for amblyopia. The program rolls first and second-grade children (6 to 7 years old) in the north of Jordan.

Conjunctivitis as the only sign and symptom of COVID-19: A case report and review of literature.

Similar to several viruses, coronaviruses can affect the eye and cause conjunctivitis. In addition to ocular involvement, it causes systemic manifestations, mainly respiratory symptoms. However, conjunctivitis as the only sign and symptom of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a rare presentation.
