Choroidal thickness measurement in highly myopic eyes using SD-OCT.

Background And Objective: To measure macular choroidal thickness (CT) using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) and to investigate the correlation between CT and age, degree of myopia, and history of macular choroidal neovascularization (CNV).

Patients And Methods: A cross-sectional study included 187 highly myopic eyes of 187 patients examined between January and December 2010. The choroid was imaged with spectral-domain OCT by changing the reference position from the vitreous to the choroid.

Bevacizumab injection in patients with age-related macular degeneration associated with poor initial visual acuity.

Purpose. To evaluate functional and anatomic effects of intravitreal bevacizumab in patients with neovascular AMD and initial low visual acuity. Methods.

Optical Coherence Tomographic Findings in Berlin's Edema.

Purpose: To describe optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings in a patient with Berlin's edema following blunt ocular trauma.

Case Report: A 26-year-old man presented with acute loss of vision in his left eye following blunt trauma. He underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination and OCT.

Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone combined with bevacizumab for choroidal neovascularization associated with large retinal pigment epithelial detachment in age-related macular degeneration.

Purpose: To discuss the effect and outcome of a combined intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection with intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) in treating choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with large retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) in age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Design: Prospective, consecutive, observational case series.

Methods: Seven eyes (five patients) with CNV associated with large PED in AMD were treated by IVTA (4 mg/ 0.
