Macular Sequelae Following Exudative Retinal Detachment After Laser Photocoagulation for Retinopathy of Prematurity.
Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina
December 2020
Background And Objective: To report a series of exudative retinal detachments (ERDs) following laser photocoagulation for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
Patients And Methods: Retrospective case series.
Results: Eleven eyes of seven infants were identified who developed ERD following laser.
Objective: Hydrocephalus occurs in children with congenital toxoplasmosis and can lead to severe disability. In these cases, the decision to intervene is often influenced by the expectation of neurological recovery. In this study, clinical responses to neurosurgical intervention in children with hydrocephalus secondary to congenital toxoplasmosis are characterized.

A diagnosis of OIS requires evaluation for underlying systemic disorders including autoimmune disorders and thyroid disease. Symptoms typically improve rapidly after initiation of steroid therapy, although recurrence can occur.

Objective: To assess the effect of primary intraocular lens implantation and timing of surgery on the incidence of postoperative glaucoma.
Data Sources: We searched multiple databases to July 14, 2013, to identify studies with eligible patients, including PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, ISI Web of Science, Scopus, Central, Google Scholar, Intute, and Tripdata.
Purpose: To determine the frequency and to identify predictors of retinal detachment after pediatric cataract surgery without primary intraocular lens implantation.
Methods: Retrospective review at an eye hospital identified 1017 eyes among 579 patients who underwent limbal-approach surgery without primary IOL implantation at age < or =16 years for cataract unassociated with other ocular abnormalities aside from microcornea. Patients had a minimum of 2 years postoperative follow-up.
Purpose: To determine the frequency of and identify predictors of chronic glaucoma after pediatric cataract surgery.
Design: Interventional case series.
Methods: Retrospective review at an eye hospital identified 570 eyes among 322 patients who underwent limbal-approach surgery without intraocular lens implantation at age
Purpose: To report the course of uveitis disease activity during pregnancy and the postpartum period in women with noninfectious uveitis.
Design: Observational case series.
Methods: The medical records of women with noninfectious uveitis and pregnancy during follow-up at a large eye hospital were retrospectively reviewed.
Purpose: To review the presentation, management, and outcome of children with cataract caused by ocular needle penetration.
Design: Retrospective, noncomparative interventional case series.
Participants: Forty-two children with cataract caused by ocular needle penetration.
Purpose: To report the outcome of cataract surgery in children with bilateral cataract and preoperative sensory nystagmus.
Design: Interventional case series.
Methods: Retrospective review of 95 children who underwent surgery for bilateral cataract associated with sensory nystagmus.
