Myopia stands as a prevalent ocular condition with global implications, impacting individuals at various life stages. In school-age children and adolescents, uncorrected myopia impedes reading and academic performance. Among middle-aged and elderly populations, myopia poses severe risks such as macular degeneration, macular holes and retinal detachment, leading to irreversible visual impairment.

Purpose: To evaluate preoperative and early postoperative factors associated with changes in visual acuity in macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) patients.
Methods: A retrospective review of 59 eyes from 59 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and silicone oil (SiO) tamponade for macula-off RRD. Preoperative and early postoperative characteristics were analyzed using the classification and regression tree (CART) analysis.

Purpose: Human amniotic membrane (hAM) grafts have been used to close persistent macular holes in recent years. The results from these surgeries are promising with improved closure rate and vision. However, there is lack of data for what happens to these membranes and how long the tissue should remain inside the patient's eyes.

Background: The aim of the study was to investigate the quantitative differences between severe stage 3 and stage 4A retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) by evaluating the pre-treatment fundus photographs.
Methods: Thirty-three eyes with clinical diagnosed as severe stage 3 were classified as severe stage 3 group. Twenty-two eyes with retinal detachment without foveal involvement were classified as stage 4A group.
