Introduction: Extensive studies have studied the factors associated with subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT). However, studies of the association between lipid profile and SFCT in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) in type 2 diabetes remain limited. Thus, we aimed to investigate the relationship between lipid profile and SFCT in patients with PDR.

The prevalence of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is rapidly increasing worldwide. Many researchers have explored the relationship between insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and ROP; however, the results are controversial. This meta-analysis evaluates the correlation between IGF-1 and ROP systematically.

Choroidal osteoma is a benign ossifying tumor within the choroid.

We performed a comprehensive search in the PubMed, EMBASE, and Ovid databases for published studies and case reports relating to the management of choroidal osteoma.
