We present the case of an infant who received bevacizumab treatment for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and developed retinal hemorrhages 12 weeks later. Although preretinal hemorrhages along the ROP's ridge were a concern for recurrence, we decided to investigate other etiologies because of numerous retinal hemorrhages in different retinal layers and their concentration in the posterior pole. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging revealed a new-onset subdural hemorrhage. Factors that were suspicious for trauma were identified in the detailed history taken from the family by the hospital's child abuse team. This case highlights the importance of considering the characteristics of retinal hemorrhages in infants with ROP and conducting any necessary investigation.

A time-sensitive, sight-threatening ocular condition presenting at an emergency department can be safely diagnosed promptly by ocular ultrasonography (OUS). OUS is a quick, safe, and portable option for assessing severe tissue damage to the periorbital area. OUS can help identify patients who need immediate ophthalmology consultation in a busy setting or when direct ophthalmic examination is unavailable.

This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diabetic vitrectomy for treating tractional retinal detachment (TRD) by assessing visual acuity improvements, retinal reattachment success rates, and the frequency of postoperative complications. A comprehensive literature search identified 1,211 studies, 30 of which met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. The meta-analyses were conducted via random effects models to account for heterogeneity.

Purpose: To report a case of vision recovery after ocular massage for cosmetic filler-induced ophthalmic artery occlusion.
Observations: A 58-year-old female experienced acute loss of vision of the left eye, left ptosis, and left glabellar skin discoloration immediately after cosmetic filler injection, suggestive of occlusion of the branches of the ophthalmic artery. Highly aggressive, prolonged ocular massage was initiated soon after and followed by a substantial recovery of vision.

Diabetic vitrectomy is a highly intricate surgical procedure performed during the advanced stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR). It is used to treat conditions such as tractional or combined retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, and subhyaloid hemorrhage, which are all severe manifestations of proliferative DR. The results of the surgery are uncertain and variable.

Purpose: To report visual and refractive outcomes and intraoperative and postoperative complications after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with retropupillary implantation of an iris clip intraocular lens (IOL).
Methods: This is a retrospective case series of patients who underwent secondary retropupillary intraocular lens insertion combined with pars plana vitrectomy to treat aphakia secondary to a dislocated nucleus lens (group A); or IOL dislocation (group B). Patient demographics, preoperative visual and refractive outcomes, intraoperative factors, postoperative visual and refractive outcomes, and complications within the follow-up period ranging from 6 months up to 3 years postoperative, were recorded.
