Lamellar Macular Holes Associated with End-Stage Exudative Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

Background: Reports of lamellar macular holes (LMHs) with underlying age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are rare, and the specific definition, pathogenesis and surgical recommendations for this macular condition remain unclear.

Objectives: To present a series of LMHs in eyes with underlying end-stage AMD, and describe optical coherence tomography (OCT) detection of associated morphologic abnormalities.

Methods: We reviewed the files of consecutive patients diagnosed with LMH and underlying end-stage AMD between September 2007 and September 2011.

Persistent elevation of intraocular pressure following intravitreal injection of bevacizumab.

Background: The number of patients treated with intravitreal injections has increased significantly over the past few years, mainly following the introduction of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor antibody intraocular drugs. Bevacizumab is mostly used in this group of medications.

Objectives: To describe persistent elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) following intravitreal injection of bevacizumab.
