Published: December 2019

Objectives: To identify differential diagnoses for subconjunctival haemorrhage in dogs.

Materials And Methods: Retrospective case series.

Results: Of 147 dogs with subconjunctival haemorrhage, 119 had a history of trauma. The most common types of injury were vehicular trauma (47/119) and dog attacks (32/119). Confirmed or suspected non-accidental injury was reported for 5/119. Of the 28 dogs without a history of trauma, 13 had a bleeding disorder and of these, immune-mediated thrombocytopenia was the most common diagnosis (9/13). Other causes included seizure disorders (4/28), vasculitis (3/28) and ocular or periocular disease (3/28).

Clinical Significance: Subconjunctival haemorrhage in dogs can be secondary to a wide range of injuries and systemic diseases, bleeding diathesis or ocular disease.

Colloidal drug aggregates (CDAs) are challenging in drug discovery due to their unpredictable formation and interference with screening assays. These limitations are turned into a strategic advantage by leveraging CDAs as a drug delivery platform. This study explores the deliberate formation and stabilization of CDAs for local ocular drug delivery, using a modified smallmolecule glaucoma drug.

Background/aim: Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a complication of diabetes, causes damage to retinal blood vessels and can lead to vision impairment. Persistent high blood glucose levels contribute to this damage, and despite ongoing research, effective treatment options for DR remain limited. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has shown anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties in both in vivo and in vitro studies; however, its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent in the context of DR has not yet been explored.

Peribulbar vs. incisionless sub-Tenon's blocks: a retrospective cohort study.

Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Faculty of Medicine, Osmangazi University, Büyükdere Mh, Odunpazarı, 26040, Eskişehir, Turkey.

Background: Ophthalmic procedures are increasingly being performed under regional anesthesia techniques such as peribulbar and incisionless sub-Tenon's blocks. The aim is to compare peribulbar block with incisionless sub-Tenon's block in terms of perioperative complications in patients who underwent cataract and vitreoretinal surgeries.

Methods: The patients who underwent cataract or vitroretinal surgery under peribulbar block or incisionless sub-Tenon's block were included in the study.

Retrobulbar hematoma (RH) is a diagnostic and therapeutic emergency that may cause permanent vision loss. Lateral canthotomy and cantholysis (LCC) is typically performed when IOP is elevated or vision is compromised. The authors describe the outcomes of the largest cohort of patients with RH to date.
