J Vitreoretin Dis
November 2024
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada.
To present the first case of macular serpiginous choroiditis after COVID-19 infection. A single case was analyzed. A 28-year-old previously healthy man presented with severe unilateral vision loss in the left eye.

Article Synopsis
- Segmental vitiligo (SV) is a type of skin condition that usually affects one side of the body, but scientists aren't sure why it happens.
- This study looked at 140 patients to see if there's a connection between SV and the areas supplied by arteries in the skin.
- The findings suggest that the way SV shows up on the skin may relate to the blood flow from nearby arteries, which could help us better understand this skin condition.
DIAGNOSTIC YIELD OF AN INHERITED RETINAL DISEASE GENE PANEL IN RETINOPATHY OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN.
Retina
September 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Saint-Pierre University Hospital, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, Belgium.
Purpose: Evaluating the presence of class 3, 4, and 5 genetic variants in inherited retinal disease (IRD) genes in patients with retinopathy of unknown origin (RUO).
Methods: Multicentric retrospective study of RUO cases diagnosed between January 2012 and February 2022. General and ophthalmologic history, complete ophthalmologic examination, antiretinal antibodies, and IRD gene panel results were analyzed in every patient.
Pilot report: objective quantification of trabecular meshwork pigmentation using densitometry and the NIDEK GS-1 gonioscope in glaucoma patients.
Front Ophthalmol (Lausanne)
January 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Advanced Eyecare of New York, New York, NY, United States.
In this case series, we present a methodology for a proof of principle for the development of a unique biomarker for pigmentary glaucoma to detect progression before nerve fiber layer loss. Out of the five patients in this case series, one was excluded because of an outlier due to pseudoexfoliation syndrome with excessively dense pigmentation of the trabecular meshwork. The remaining patients displayed a decreased visual field loss with increased superior to inferior trabecular meshwork ratios.

Ophthalmic Genet
October 2024
Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada.
Article Synopsis
- Waardenburg Syndrome (WS) can manifest as sensorineural hearing loss and changes in skin pigmentation, potentially mimicking serious conditions like melanoma.
- A case involving two siblings showed choroidal pigmentary abnormalities, but further examinations revealed no tumor growth, leading to a diagnosis of WS type 2A due to specific symptoms and genetic testing.
- Understanding the symptoms of WS and utilizing genetic testing can help rule out malignancies, treat hearing loss, and identify affected family members early on.
