Rationale: Congenital ectropion uveae (CEU) is a rare, nonprogressive anomaly characterized by the proliferation of the iris pigment epithelium on the anterior surface of the iris, often associated with glaucoma. Due to its rarity and complexity, standardized glaucoma surgical management is limited. To our knowledge, the application of glaucoma drainage devices in CEU is rarely documented.

Purpose: To analyze choroidal and choriocapillaris changes in eyes affected by active unilateral central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).
Methods: A total of 17 eyes suffering from naïve CSC were enrolled. In addition, 17 healthy fellow eyes were analyzed, and 10 eyes were enrolled as controls.

Background: Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a significant cause of vision loss in men aged 20 to 60, characterized by serous detachment of the neurosensory retina from the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). This study aims to assess the frequency of CSC among patients at a tertiary care center in Pakistan, offering insights into its epidemiology and management within this setting.
Methodology: A retrospective observational study was conducted at the ophthalmology department of a tertiary care center from January 2019 to December 2023.

Article Synopsis
- Optic disc melanocytoma is a benign, usually asymptomatic tumor found in the eye, but it can lead to complications like choroidal neovascularization, which can be challenging to distinguish from malignant tumors.
- A case study of a 54-year-old man with optic disc melanocytoma showed the need for close monitoring due to growth, prompting treatment with anti-VEGF-A injections after development of neovascular membranes.
- Treatment with intravitreal anti-VEGF-A can effectively manage choroidal neovascularization related to optic disc melanocytoma and requires advanced imaging techniques for accurate diagnosis.
Acute retinal pigment epitheliitis using adaptive optics imaging: a case report.

Department of Ophthalmology, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Article Synopsis
- Acute Retinal Pigment Epitheliitis (ARPE) is a rare eye disorder mostly affecting young adults, leading to temporary vision loss, often resolving within 6 to 12 weeks.
- The condition was studied in two patients using advanced imaging techniques like Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Adaptive Optics Flood Illumination Ophthalmoscopy (AO-FIO), revealing insights into retinal changes and recovery.
- Both patients showed initial vision loss but eventually regained eyesight, although some retinal structural changes persisted even after improvement, highlighting the disease's complex nature.
