Inflammatory choroidal neovascularization (iCNV) significantly contributes to vision impairment and ranks as the third primary cause of CNV. Arising from both infectious and noninfectious uveitis, iCNV's pathogenesis involves Bruch membrane rupture, local inflammation, and choriocapillaris ischemia. The diagnosis of iCNV is challenging due to its symptomatic overlap with other uveitis-related conditions.

Purpose: To report our real-world experience using intravitreal faricimab, a novel anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy, in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) previously treated with other anti-VEGF therapy.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective, single-center study of previously treated nAMD eyes treated with faricimab.
Results: In 88 eyes (73 patients), mean baseline best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/63 (range 20/20 to CF) with mean anti-VEGF injection interval of 6.

Background: This retrospective study aimed to compare optic disc vasculature changes in 1 and 3 months after treatment with either panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) or Intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) in patients with diabetic retinopathy.
Methods: A total of 50 eyes of 29 diabetic patients without severe complications were included in this comparative case series. Of these, twenty-eight eyes (15 patients) were assigned to the PRP group, while twenty-two eyes (14 patients) were treated with the biosimilar (IVB) (Stivant CinnaGen Co.
Introduction: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of estimated individual vitreous volume on intraocular pressure (IOP) spikes after intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections (IVI).
Methods: Vitreous volumes (VV) of eyes were calculated using an axial length (AL) based formula AL3 x (π/6) x 0.76+0.

Introduction: Intravitreal injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents are a primary management option for retinal diseases. Acute elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) is a complication associated with these injections that should be considered. This study investigated and compared the prophylactic effects of fixed combination anti-glaucoma medication on IOP spikes following intravitreal anti-VEGF injections.
