Purpose: To report on a case of peripapillary serous detachment due to vitreopapillary traction during the development of posterior vitreous detachment.
Methods: A 63-year-old female presented with acute decreased viual acuity and peripapillary serous retinal detachment extending to the macula in her left eye. Visual acuity was 20/200 in left eye and 20/20 in right eye. Optical coherence tomography confirmed the clinical findings.
Results: Peripapillary serous detachment resolved spontaneously 1 week after presentation with the complete development of posterior vitreous detachment. Visual acuity improved to 20/20.
Conclusions: Posterior vitreous detachment may cause peripapillary and macular serous detachment during the development.

This study aims to evaluate the quantitative changes in retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and radial peripapillary capillary (RPC) vessel density in patients with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), specifically excluding the peripapillary region. A prospective case-control study was conducted at the Antalya Training and Research Hospital, Health Sciences University, involving 65 patients with chronic CSCR. Participants were categorized into two groups based on the presence or regression of subretinal fluid (SRF).

Objective: Imaging techniques have demonstrated changes in the choroid and retina in acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), but the effects on the optic nerve head (ONH) remain unclear. This study investigates ONH structural changes in acute CSCR using enhanced deep imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT).
Methods: A prospective cohort study included 51 acute CSCR patients and 51 healthy controls aged 18-65 years.

Article Synopsis
- Cat-scratch disease (CSD) is caused by a specific type of bacteria and can lead to various symptoms, including rare cases of neuroretinitis, which affects vision.
- A 14-year-old girl experienced sudden vision loss after being scratched by cats, prompting her to seek emergency care, where doctors found significant swelling of the optic disc and other eye issues.
- The patient was treated with antibiotics and steroids, resulting in improved vision and resolution of her eye problems after completing the treatment.

Purpose: Pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, and hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets (HELLP) syndrome have been previously implicated with ophthalmic complications including serous retinal detachments and disorders of the choroidal vasculature. Herein, we report a case of macular serous detachment associated with HELLP syndrome in which wide field swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (WF SS-OCTA) was used.
Methods: Retrospective case report of a patient who developed HELLP syndrome.

Department of Ophthalmology, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Purpose: To investigate the functional and structural outcomes after treatment with prednisolone eye drops in the following pachychoroid-related diseases: chronic central serous chorioretinopathy, pachychoroid pigment epitheliopathy, and peripapillary pachychoroid syndrome.
Methods: In this retrospective study, 54 eyes of 48 patients with pachychoroid-related disease were treated with prednisolone acetate 1% eye drops 3 times a day. Change in macular volume and retinal central subfield thickness on optical coherence tomography was measured.
