We report the case of a 9-year-old girl with a severe and uncommon presentation of juvenile idiopathic arthritis-related posterior uveitis, with neovessels at the optic disk associated with peripheral vasculitis. After two failed bevacizumab intravitreal injections, uveitis responded to systemic adalimumab administration, with a complete and long-term remission of ocular inflammation.

Background: To compare structural and vascular parameters between advanced pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).
Methods: One hundred and six eyes of 81 patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. All patients underwent complete ophthalmic examination and measurement of the thickness of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex (GCC).

Retinal hemorrhage (RH) is a significant clinical finding with various etiologies, necessitating accurate classification for effective management. This study aims to externally validate deep learning (DL) models, specifically FastVit_SA12 and ResNet18, for distinguishing between traumatic and medical causes of RH using diverse fundus photography datasets. A comprehensive dataset was compiled, including private collections from South Korea and Virginia, alongside publicly available datasets such as RFMiD, BRSET, and DeepEyeNet.

Department of Ophthalmology, Federal University of São Paulo, São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
Chagas disease (CD), a parasitic infection, may have ocular repercussions in its cardiologic form, since a history of heart disease of other etiologies already has been established as a risk factor for neuropathies and maculopathies. The aim of the present study was to investigate preclinical structural and vascular optic nerve head (ONH) and macular parameters in patients with chronic CD. Nineteen patients with CD and 19 healthy subjects were evaluated with optical coherence tomography, optical coherence tomography angiography, and Laguna ONhE® software.

Department of Ophthalmology, Medical Faculty, University Hospital of Cologne, Kerpener Strasse 62, 50937, Cologne, Germany.
Background/ Aims: To analyze the longitudinal change in Bruch's membrane opening minimal rim width (BMO-MRW) and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) thickness using optical coherence tomography (OCT) after implantation of a PRESERFLO® microshunt for surgical glaucoma management in adult glaucoma patients.
Methods: Retrospective data analysis of 59 eyes of 59 participants undergoing implantation of a PRESERFLO microshunt between 2019 and 2022 at a tertiary center for glaucoma management. Surgical management included primary temporary occlusion of the glaucoma shunt to prevent early hypotony.
