CLINICAL OUTCOMES AND TREATMENT COURSE OF EYES WITH NEOVASCULAR AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION FOLLOWING THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENDOPHTHALMITIS.

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical course of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) after developing endophthalmitis during their treatment with intravitreal injections.

Methods: Multicenter, retrospective series.

Results: From April 2013 to October 2018, 196,598 intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections were performed, with 75 cases of endophthalmitis (incidence 0.

Estimating small-area population density in Sri Lanka using surveys and Geo-spatial data.

Country-level census data are typically collected once every 10 years. However, conflicts, migration, urbanization, and natural disasters can rapidly shift local population patterns. This study demonstrates the feasibility of a "bottom-up"-method to estimate local population density in the between-census years by combining household surveys with contemporaneous geo-spatial data, including village-area and satellite imagery-based indicators.

The COMS Randomized Trial of Iodine 125 Brachytherapy for Choroidal Melanoma: IV. Local Treatment Failure and Enucleation in the First 5 Years after Brachytherapy. COMS Report No. 19.

Objective: To describe the frequency and predictors of local treatment failure and enucleation after iodine 125 (I) brachytherapy in patients with choroidal melanoma treated and followed up in a large randomized clinical trial.

Design: Prospective, noncomparative, interventional case series within a randomized, multicenter clinical trial.

Participants: Patients enrolled in the Collaborative Ocular Melanoma Study (COMS) trial of enucleation versus brachytherapy between February 1987 and July 1998; tumors measured 2.
