BACKGROUND/AIMS Most surgeons performing macular hole surgery using long acting gas recommend strict postoperative face down posturing for 10-15 days. Patients with chronic systemic illness such as arthritis may be unable to carry out this postoperative regime. Thus there is a need for alternative techniques that would eliminate such a regime. The authors review a series of patients who underwe...
متن کاملMorphology and functional characteristics in adult vitelliform macular dystrophy.
PURPOSE Detailed morphologic and functional evaluation of adult vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD). METHODS The records of 61 consecutive AVMD patients (inclusion criterion: vitelliform lesion smaller than one disk diameter at least in one eye) were evaluated retrospectively regarding visual acuity, color vision, perimetry, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) autofluorescence, fluorescein angi...

CASE REPORT We report the case of a child with a sudden loss of vision of the left eye. Ophthalmoscopic examination revealed vitelliform lesions in both foveal centers, as well as an adjacent hemorrhage in his left eye. Fluorescein angiography confirmed the presence of a neovascular membrane in his left eye. The electrooculogram showed disease. According to complementary studies the patient was...
متن کاملMorphological and functional analyses of adult onset vitelliform macular dystrophy.
AIM To evaluate the morphology and visual function of the macula in eyes with adult onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD). METHODS 12 eyes of six patients with AVMD were examined by ophthalmoscopy, scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and multifocal electroretinography (mfERGs). The macular lesions were bilateral in all patients and varied from the typ...
متن کاملTreatment of idiopathic macular hole with silicone oil tamponade
PURPOSE We analyzed the anatomical and visual outcomes after surgical treatment of idiopathic macular holes with pars plana vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling using Brilliant Blue dye, and silicone oil tamponade without postoperative posturing. METHODS This was a retrospective interventional study of 10 eyes in eight patients who underwent surgical treatment of idiopathic ma...
