Purpose: This work aims to report the challenging diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of a patient with persistent fetal vasculature (PFV) and retinoblastoma (RB).
Methods: A 22-month-old boy presented with unilateral RB stage VB in the right eye and PFV in both eyes. The patient was treated with transpupillary laser ablation and systemic chemotherapy.
Purpose: This work presents a case of secondary maculopathy associated with the use of erdafitinib (Balversa) for the management of bladder urothelial carcinoma with bony metastasis.
Methods: A case report is presented.
Results: A 58-year-old Hispanic man presented with blurry vision 3 weeks after starting erdafitinib for the management of bony metastases associated with urothelial carcinoma.
A 5-year-old Caucasian male with a history nonaccidental injury (NAI) at age 1 presented with new onset no light perception in the left eye due to a closed funnel retinal detachment. The right eye showed optic nerve pallor, peripheral vascular attenuation, and leakage.

A 23-month-old girl born at 23 weeks' gestational age with a birth weight of 453 g and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) stage 4A in 360° and plus disease in both eyes was treated in another institution with laser; her treatment was complicated with two cardiac arrests during the procedure. The patient was referred and treated at 31 weeks with repeated intravitreal bevacizumab injection in both eyes secondary to progressive ROP. Treatment with multiple anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy as monotherapy led to the resolution of a retinal detachment and full vascularization of the retina in both eyes.
