A 42-year-old man with Hunter syndrome developed bilateral visual field loss. Visual field testing demon-strated bilateral ring scotomata that corresponded to areas of thinning seen on standard resolution optical coherence tomography. High-speed, ultrahigh resolution optical coherence tomography, capable of 3.5-micron axial resolution, showed a loss of photoreceptors outside the fovea and cystoid spaces within the inner nuclear, ganglion cell, and outer nuclear layers. These results were consistent with histopathologic features that have been reported previously in patients with Hunter syndrome. Optical coherence tomography could be used as a diagnostic modality to monitor patients with Hunter syndrome and to detect subclinical forms of disease.

Purpose: To evaluate the predictive accuracy of various machine learning (ML) statistical models in forecasting postoperative visual acuity (VA) outcomes following macular hole (MH) surgery using preoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) parameters.
Methods: This retrospective study included 158 eyes (151 patients) with full-thickness MHs treated between 2017 and 2023 by the same surgeon and using the same intraoperative surgical technique. Data from electronic medical records and OCT scans were extracted, with OCT-derived qualitative and quantitative MH characteristics recorded.

Purpose: To report the occurrence of AMN (Acute Macular Neuroretinopathy) in a Behçet Disease (BD) patient during an active systemic inflammatory relapse and to describe the SD-OCT features of this entity.
Patients And Methods: Retrospective observational case report of a patient who presented with an AMN during a BD associated ocular inflammation (Saint Pierre Hospital, Brussels, Belgium). Clinical record and imaging, including infrared reflectance image (IR) and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), were analyzed.
