Simultaneous central retinal vein and cilioretinal artery occlusion in a young female patient with progestin-only oral contraceptive use: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Nangarhar University, Nangarhar, Afghanistan.
Background: Central retinal vein occlusion and cilioretinal artery occlusion are rare but serious ocular conditions that can lead to significant visual impairment. While few cases of central retinal vein occlusion and cilioretinal artery occlusion have been individually reported, concurrent occlusion of both vessels is extremely rare, particularly in younger patients without traditional vascular risk factors. We present the first reported case of simultaneous central retinal vein occlusion and cilioretinal artery occlusion in a young female patient associated with short-term use of progestin-only oral contraceptives (OCPs).

Time-driven activity-based costing analysis of panretinal photocoagulation shows 47.8% of cases have a negative margin relative to maximum Medicare reimbursement, with large financial disincentives for bilateral cases, which may disincentivize high-value care for vulnerable patients.

Purpose: To identify clinical features which may predict the angle status of a large cohort of NVG eyes at the time of diagnosis.
Observations: Chart review was performed for all NVG eyes from 2010 to 2022. Complete angle closure was defined as having >75 % PAS, partial angle closure as having 1-75 % PAS, and open angles as having 0 % PAS.
Nerve Fiber Layer Schisis in Coats Disease.
Retin Cases Brief Rep
December 2024
Casey Eye Institute, Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR.
Purpose: To describe two cases of pediatric patients with Coats disease who developed nerve fiber layer (NFL) schisis.
Methods: Observational case series.
Results: Two male pediatric patients, ages 2 and 14, who were being treated for Coats disease were found to have NFL schisis on optical coherence tomography.

Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to explore how demographic factors and measurements of nonperfusion (NP) and neovascularization (NV) on ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography relate to intravitreal injections (IVIs) and panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) treatment in diabetic patients.
- It included 363 diabetic patients treated at the University of Michigan, analyzing the effectiveness of these treatments based on retinal image data from 2009 to 2018 while excluding those with previous PRP treatment or poor image quality.
- Results revealed that higher NP and NV areas were associated with increased IVIs and PRP treatments, and type 2 diabetes was linked to a greater risk of progression in diabetic retinopathy compared to type 1
