Purpose: To describe a case of bilateral pigmented paravenous chorioretinal atrophy.
Methods: Observational case report.
Results: A 50-year-old female patient complained of right eye pain and decreased near visual acuity. She had a best-corrected visual acuity of 20/20 in both eyes. In the posterior segment, there were atrophic changes along retinal vessels, and bony spicule pigmentation was observed in a paravenous distribution. There were some abnormal changes in the electroretinogram and electrooculogram in both eyes.
Conclusions: A diagnosis of bilateral pigmented paravenous chorioretinal atrophy was made.

Department of Ophthalmology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, 2-2 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka, 565-0871, Japan.
Purpose: To report a case of bilateral choroidal osteoma successfully treated with subscleral sclerectomy for secondary serous retinal detachment (SRD).
Observations: A 52-year-old Japanese woman first diagnosed with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease and treated with steroids for 9 years was referred to our clinic. SRD in both eyes recurred frequently and was uncontrolled with adalimumab subcutaneous injections and oral cyclosporine, in addition to steroids.

Purpose: To report the surgical management and outcomes of a patient with granulomatous inflammation following scleral tattooing, emphasizing the associated risks and clinical implications.
Methods: A 26-year-old woman with a history of multiple body modifications, including scleral tattooing, presented with bilateral ocular pain and discomfort. Clinical examination revealed corneal dellen and subconjunctival granulomas.
Fundus Autofluorescence Variation in Geographic Atrophy of Age-Related Macular Degeneration: A Clinicopathologic Correlation.
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci

Vitreous Retina Macula Consultants of New York, New York, United States.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop ground-truth histology about contributors to variable fundus autofluorescence (FAF) signal and thus inform patient selection for treating geographic atrophy (GA) in age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Methods: One woman with bilateral multifocal GA, foveal sparing, and thick choroids underwent 535 to 580 nm excitation FAF in 6 clinic visits (11 to 6 years before death). The left eye was preserved 5 hours after death.
Griscelli syndrome: Erdheim-Chester disease-like local presentation progressing to accelerated phase.

Division of Pediatric Immunology, Department of Pediatrics, Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Ankara, Türkiye.
Background: Griscelli syndrome (GS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by oculocutaneous albinism and variable immune dysfunction. Among three distinct types of GS, occurring due to different genetic mutations; GS type 1 presents with neurological manifestations, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) generally develops in GS type 2, and GS type 3 primarily exhibits oculocutaneous albinism. HLH, a life-threatening condition with excessive immune activation, may occur secondary to various triggers, including infections, and develop in different tissues, as well as in the testis, similar to Erdheim-Chester disease.

Adult-onset leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia (ALSP) is a rare white matter disease characterized by axonal and glial injury. Although its clinical characteristics have been described in case reports, the prevalence of CSF1R mutations in clinically suspected ALSP cases remains unclear. Herein, we analysed the frequency of CSF1R mutations in patients with probable or possible ALSP and describe the genetic, clinical, radiological, and pathological findings of ALSP cases in individuals of Korean ancestry.
