Infrared Video Imaging for the Identification and Quantification of Macula-Involving Symptomatic Vitreous Opacities.

Texas Retina Center, Houston, TX, USA.
To evaluate whether infrared video imaging can supplement traditional examination and imaging methods to identify and quantify symptomatic vitreous opacities. A prospective nonrandomized nonmasked series was performed that included eyes of consecutive patients with a primary complaint of symptomatic vitreous opacities. A macular vitreous opacity score (0-4) was developed to grade the size of the opacities in relation to the macula after refixation of up, down, left, and right saccades.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how the COVID-19 pandemic affected patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) at Farabi Eye Hospital in Iran, comparing patients from before and during the pandemic.
- A total of 375 patients were analyzed, revealing that those referred during the pandemic had quicker referral and surgical wait times, but no significant changes in clinical characteristics or surgical outcomes.
- The use of general anesthesia increased during the pandemic period, prompting the need for further research into this trend.
Characteristics, Risks, and Prevention of Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment in the Contralateral Eye.

: Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a potentially blinding retinal disorder. RRD in the first eye is a well-recognized risk factor for bilateral RRD since risk factors that predispose to RRD affect both eyes. In this study, we assess the presenting factors that predispose individuals to bilateral RRD and evaluate the role of prophylactic retinopexy in preventing fellow-eye RRD.

Objective: The agitation that can occur in patients undergoing vitreoretinal surgery on awakening from general anesthesia is a serious post-operative problem. In our study, we aimed to compare the effects of different anesthesia methods on emergence agitation in patients undergoing vitreoretinal surgery.
Method: Patients undergoing vitreoretinal surgery were divided into two groups: Total intravenous anesthesia (Group T) and inhalation anesthesia (Group D) according to the maintenance of anesthesia applied by consulting the records.
Topographic changes in macula and its association with visual outcomes in idiopathic epiretinal membrane surgery.

Department of Ophthalmology, Medical Research Institute, Pusan National University Hospital, Busan, South Korea.
Purpose: We investigated changes in macular topography and their association with visual acuity and metamorphopsia in the idiopathic epiretinal membrane (iERM).
Methods: Twenty-four eyes that underwent vitrectomy and ERM removal with internal limiting membrane peeling were included in this study. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and horizontal/vertical metamorphopsia scores (h and vM-scores in the M-chart) were assessed.
