Background: Choroidal neovascular membranes (CNVM) associated with optic nerve head drusen (ONHD) are rare but vision threatening. A variety of treatments, including laser photocoagulation, subretinal surgery, and anti-VEGF injections, are effective but pose risks, particularly in pediatric patients, underscoring the need for a comprehensive review.
Methods: A systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science.

The aim of the study was todescribe the clinical features, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging in patients with choroidal and retinal tumors. Ninety eyes of 89 patients with treatment-naive macular, midperipheral, and juxtapapillary choroidal and retinal tumors were retrospectively included in the study. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmic examination, B-mode ultrasonography, OCT, and FAF imaging.

Background: In children, pseudopapilledema is frequently caused by peripapillary hyperreflective ovoid mass-like structures (PHOMS) or optic disc drusen (ODD). While enhanced depth imaging (EDI) OCT can identify both, lack of cooperation, especially from younger children due to the duration of testing, often necessitates the use of B-scan ultrasound (BSUS). This study investigated whether PHOMS are hyperreflective on BSUS and if BSUS can differentiate PHOMS from ODD.

Extensive macular atrophy with pseudodrusen-like appearance (EMAP) was first described in France in 2009 as a symmetric and rapidly progressive form of macular atrophy primarily affecting middle-aged individuals. Despite the recent identification of a significant number of cases in Italy and worldwide, EMAP remains an underrecognized condition. The clinical triad typical of EMAP consists of vertically oriented macular atrophy with multilobular borders, pseudodrusen-like deposits across the posterior pole and mid-periphery, and peripheral pavingstone degeneration.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in aging populations. A better understanding of the mechanisms of the disease, especially at early stages, could elucidate new treatment targets. One characteristic of AMD is strain on the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), a crucial layer of the retina.
