Purpose: To describe a case of scleral buckling in a patient with severe (Type III) osteogenesis imperfecta.
Methods: Single interventional case report of a 37-year-old woman, with clinically diagnosed osteogenesis imperfecta Type III, presenting with an inferior retinal detachment of the right eye. The patient was promptly treated with scleral buckling.
Results: Long-term follow-up has shown a good clinical outcome, with no recurrence of the retinal detachment. Eighteen months postsurgery, an ischemic branch retinal vein obstruction has developed in the right eye, complicated by macular edema. The patient was treated successfully with bevacizumab injections, with restoration of visual acuity to 20/25.
Conclusion: Scleral buckle may provide a good surgical option in selected patients with osteogenesis imperfecta, yielding excellent anatomical and functional results.

Purpose Of Review: Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is a severe complication of retinal detachment and trauma, posing significant challenges to surgical success and visual prognosis. Despite advancements in vitreoretinal surgery, PVR incidence remains unchanged, this review presents a synthesis of the principal clinical and preclinical research findings from recent years.
Recent Findings: Recent research has focused on anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and antifibrotic agents.
Surgical interventions for simple phakic fovea-splitting rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: a comparative study of scleral buckling and pars plana vitrectomy.
Front Med (Lausanne)
January 2025
National Clinical Research Center for Ocular Diseases, Eye Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou, China.
Aims: To compare the efficiency of scleral buckling (SB) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with or without SB in patients with primary simple phakic fovea-splitting rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
Methods: A retrospective case-control study included 101 patients aged <55 years diagnosed with phakic fovea-splitting RRD. The primary outcome was functional success, defined as achieving a postoperative logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution best-corrected visual acuity of 0.
The "Triangle" Sign: A Novel Ultrasound Marker for Diagnosing Total Choroidal Detachment and Total Suprachoroidal Hemorrhage.
Clin Ophthalmol
January 2025
University Eye Clinic Maastricht, Maastricht, the Netherlands.
Purpose: This study aims to explore the diagnostic utility of ultrasound B-scan while introducing the "Triangle" sign as a novel indicator. It also validates the sign's efficacy in distinguishing between choroidal detachment (CD) and suprachoroidal hemorrhage (SCH) from retinal detachment (RD) and vitreous hemorrhage (VH).
Patients And Methods: Retrospective analysis of consecutive cases of total CD and SCH undergoing B-scan at a single tertiary imaging center.
Background: To report clinical outcomes from a single-center cohort undergoing PAUL® Glaucoma Implant (PGI) surgery for secondary glaucoma after vitreoretinal surgery (VR).
Methods: Retrospective review of patients undergoing PGI surgery at the University Eye Hospital Bonn, Germany, from 04/2021 to 05/2023.
Results: 33 eyes of 33 patients were included.
Clinical features, diagnosis, management, and prognosis of circumscribed choroidal hemangioma.

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.
