Quantitative determination of glycosaminoglycans in tears of diabetic patients.

Purpose: To determine the amount of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in tears of patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) and to compare it with normal subjects.

Methods: 38 patients with DR and 24 normal volunteers were included. Thirty subjects suffered from background diabetic retinopathy (BDR) and 8 from proliferate diabetic retinopathy (PDR).

Tilted disc syndrome: an OCT and mfERG study.

Purpose: To evaluate retinal thickness and function in eyes with tilted disc syndrome with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG).

Methods: Twenty-one eyes of 12 patients (4 males and 8 females) with tilted disc were studied with OCT3 and mfERG and compared with 40 eyes of 20 age and sex-matched control subjects. The thickness of the fovea and the thickness of retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) along a 3.

Clinical and multifocal-electroretinographic findings of congenital tilted disc syndrome associated with choroidal neovascularization: a case report.

Purpose: To report a case of a tilted disc syndrome associated with choroidal neovascularization.

Methods: A 55-year-old male patient presented with blurred vision and metamorphopsia of the left eye. He underwent complete ophthalmologic examination, fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and multifocal-electroretinogram (mf-ERG).
