Purpose: To evaluate factors related to subretinal proliferation in patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD).
Methods: A total of 262 consecutive patients (267 eyes) with rhegmatogenous RD were evaluated retrospectively to determine factors associated with subretinal proliferation.
Results: Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the following factors associated with subretinal proliferation that caused retinal traction: number of quadrants detached (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 2.21), longer duration of RD (AOR = 1.52), younger patient age (AOR = 0.51), and presence of atrophic retinal breaks (AOR = 0.41).
Conclusion: Atrophic retinal breaks, younger patient age, and RD of long duration and greater extent were associated with the presence of subretinal proliferation.

Purpose: We describe a case of non-traumatic macular hole in a pediatric patient associated with numerous epiretinal lesions throughout the macula.
Methods: A healthy 9-year-old girl presented to retina clinic with several months of blurry vision in the right eye. Clinically, there was a full-thickness macular hole with serous detachment and white epiretinal tufts.

Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies have transformed the treatment of retinal diseases. However, VEGF signaling is only one component of the complex, multifactorial pathophysiology of retinal diseases, and many patients have residual disease activity despite ongoing anti-VEGF treatment. The angiopoietin/tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin and epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (Ang/Tie2) signaling pathway is critical to endothelial cell homeostasis, survival, integrity, and vascular stability.

Background: Leopard spots can appear in a variety of diseases; however, they are extremely rare in children with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. This study presents two such rare cases in which leopard spot retinopathy was the initial manifestation of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Case Presentation: Case 1 involved a 4-year-old boy had previously been diagnosed with left eye uveitis and received systemic steroid therapy at a local hospital, but symptoms persisted.

Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Kellogg Eye Center, University of Michigan.
Purpose: To describe the advanced multimodal imaging findings of patients with bilateral diffuse uveal melanocytic proliferation (BDUMP) and the changes in these findings over time.
Methods: Fundus photography, fundus autofluorescence (FAF), fundus fluorescein angiography (FA), spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT), B-scan ultrasonography (US), and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) images of the patients diagnosed with BDUMP at a single institution between years 2006-2023 were evaluated.
Results: Sixteen eyes of 8 patients with BDUMP were included.

Congenital ocular malformations originate from defective morphogenesis during early eye development and cause 25% of childhood blindness. Formation of the eye is a multi-step, dynamic process; it involves evagination of the optic vesicle, followed by distal and ventral invagination, leading to the formation of a two-layered optic cup with a transient optic fissure. These tissue folding events require extensive changes in cell shape and tissue growth mediated by cytoskeleton mechanics and intercellular adhesion.
