Evaluating the impact of polycythemia vera on retinal and optic nerve head microvascularity: An OCTA study.

Purpose: This study aims to assess the impact of polycythemia vera (PV) on retinal and optic nerve head (ONH) vessel density (VD) parameters, macular ganglion cell complex (mGCC) thickness, and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness compared to healthy controls.

Methods: Forty eyes of 20 patients with PV and 40 eyes of 20 age-gender-matched healthy controls underwent comprehensive ophthalmologic assessments and optic coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). RNFL and macular GCC measurements were obtained simultaneously with vascular parameters by AngioVue OCTA using the single-scan protocol.

Peripapillary and Macular Vessel Density in Unilateral Early Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma.

Prcis: In early pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG), radial peripapillary capillary vessel density (RPC-VD) was reduced nasally, while the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thinned from the nasal to temporal sectors. Nonglaucomatous fellow eyes demonstrated no RPC-VD or RNFL loss in comparison to the controls.

Purpose: To evaluate peripapillary and macular vessel density (VD) in unilateral early PXG and unaffected fellow eyes compared with healthy controls.

Retinal and peripapillary vascular density in episodic and chronic migraine cases without aura.

Background: Migraine is a neurovascular disease that can cause ocular and systemic ischemic damage. Despite from aura, a limited number of studies have considered the effect of the chronic migraine in cases without aura. Our aim was to evaluate the differences in the retinal and optic disk microvasculature among episodic and chronic migraine cases without aura using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging.

Combined Capsular Tension Ring and Segment Implantation in Phacoemulsification Surgery for the Management of Microspherophakia with Secondary Angle-Closure Glaucoma.

We present the long-term results of the implantation of a capsular tension ring (CTR) and Ahmed capsular tension segments (CTS) together for the management of mikrospherophakia in a 35-year-old female patient. The patient had uncontrolled secondary angle-closure glaucoma, despite previous laser peripheral iridotomy, and visual impairment due to lenticular myopia. Clear lens extraction was performed under general anesthesia.

Peripapillary and Macular Vascular Density in Patients With Preperimetric and Early Primary Open Angle Glaucoma.

Prcis: Decreased circumpapillary vascular density (cpVD) and average retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness were detected at different locations in eyes with preperimetric glaucoma (PPG). Although RNFL loss was more prominent in preperimetric eyes, in early glaucoma, both cpVD and RNFL thickness showed comparable diagnostic ability.

Purpose: To evaluate changes in circumpapillary and macular vascular density and investigate correlations between vascular and structural parameters in PPG and early glaucoma.
