Objectives: The role of inflammation and hemostasis in non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) was investigated by examining related blood tests. The predictive values of these laboratory indicators and their effects on prognosis were reviewed.

Methods: In this study, 48 patients diagnosed with NAION and 50 healthy volunteers were included.

Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical and optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings of patients with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) due to best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD).

Methods: Six eyes that were diagnosed with CNV associated with BVMD were evaluated retrospectively. A standard ophthalmologic examination, a fundus fluorescein angiography (FA), and the OCT findings of the patients were examined.

Background: To evaluate vitreoretinal interface abnormalities in patients with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome.

Methods: This case-control study was performed in 136 patients diagnosed with unilateral PEX (PEX group) and 139 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers (Control group). Both the affected and contralateral eyes were evaluated in the PEX group and the right eye was evaluated in the Control group.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the optic coherence tomography (OCT) findings in patients with toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis (TRC).

Methods: A total of 12 eyes of 12 patients with active TRC were included in the study. At baseline, at the first-month follow-up, at the sixth-month follow-up and at the 1-year follow-up, the TRC lesion OCT and macula OCT were evaluated.

Objective: To evaluate optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings of pediatric Alport syndrome (AS) patients with no retinal pathology on fundus examination.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-one patients being followed up with the diagnosis of AS (Group 1) and 24 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers (Group 2) were prospectively evaluated. All participants underwent standard ophthalmologic examination, retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) analysis, and horizontal and vertical scan macula enhanced depth imaging OCT (EDI-OCT).

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical findings and the efficacy of dexamethasone intravitreal implant in patients with postvitrectomy macular edema.

Methods: The records of 14 patients diagnosed with postvitrectomy macular edema unresponsive to first-line treatment, treated with intravitreal dexamethazone implant injection and followed at least 6 months between October 2011 and May 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients underwent standard ophtalmological examination, fluorescein angiography, and optical coherence tomography.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the anterior segment in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to compare them with those of healthy reproductive-age female volunteers.

Materials And Methods: The study included 50 right eyes of 50 women with PCOS (group 1) and 50 right eyes of 50 healthy women (group 2). Intraocular pressure, Schirmer's test, tear film break-up time and central corneal thickness were evaluated in all subjects.

Purpose: To investigate whether there is a difference between primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients and control group with regard to choroidal thickness (CT) and the factors influencing CT.

Methods: Ninety eyes of 90 patients who were being followed up with POAG and 72 eyes of 72 healthy subjects matched for age and gender were included. Peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT), peripapillary CT, lamina cribrosa thickness (LCT), and prelaminar tissue thickness (PTT) were measured with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) enhanced depth imaging (EDI) in all patients.
