AI Article Synopsis

  • The study highlights the effective use of the Optos Panoramic200A fluorescein angiography in managing a patient with both asteroid hyalosis and active proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
  • The Optos system’s wide 200-degree field of view allows for a comprehensive view of both the central and peripheral areas of the retina, which is crucial in certain cases.
  • The findings suggest that the detailed imaging provided by the Optos angiogram can significantly influence treatment decisions for patients with complex eye conditions.

Article Abstract

We report a unique situation in which the use of Optos Panoramic200A fluorescein angiography directed the management of a patient with asteroid hyalosis and active proliferative diabetic retinopathy. The Optos Panoramic200A system provides a 200 degrees field of view, which may be useful in selected cases where simultaneous view of the posterior pole and periphery is important. The Optos fluorescein angiogram directed the management of our patient with proliferative diabetic retinopathy combined with asteroid hyalosis.
