Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe a patient with an untreated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, first diagnosed during pregnancy, that underwent spontaneous resolution after normal labor and childbirth.
Methods: Descriptive case report.
Results And Discussion: It has been extensively documented that normal labor and childbirth are safe in the context of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Although exudative retinal detachment is a well-known complication of preeclampsia, spontaneous reattachment of a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is a rare phenomenon. In this case, labor-induced physiologic changes may have contributed to the resolution of the detachment.

Because of its benign nature and rarity, circumscribed choroidal hemangioma (CCH) often receives limited attention, leading to a high rate of misdiagnosis and a lack of standardized treatment protocols. We provide a thorough clarification of the demographics, clinical features, diagnosis, management, and prognosis of CCH. We conducted a systematic search of the PubMed, EMBASE, and Ovid databases up to December, 2023, to identify relevant studies.

In this study, we evaluated clinical outcomes following a therapy switch to Faricimab, in a patient cohort affected by neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), having received prior intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy. A retrospective investigation, including 28 eyes of 23 patients, treated for nAMD at the University Medical Center Mainz, Germany was performed. A switch in therapy to Faricimab was conducted, due to an inadequate response to the previous anti-VEGF treatment.

: Accurate target definition, treatment planning and delivery increases local tumor control for radiotherapy by minimizing collateral damage. To achieve this goal for uveal melanoma (UM), tantalum fiducial markers (TFMs) were previously introduced in proton and photon beam radiotherapy. However, TFMs cause pronounced scattering effects in imaging that make the delineation of small tumors difficult.

: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics and identify the prognostic factors affecting visual outcomes, retinal detachment, and recurrence in cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) patients following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). : A retrospective analysis of 54 CMVR patients (84 eyes) who underwent allo-HSCT between 2015 and 2024 was conducted. Ophthalmologic and systemic evaluations were performed.
