Visual acuity after vitrectomy and epiretinal membrane peeling with or without premacular indocyanine green injection.
PURPOSE To compare postoperative visual acuity of eyes operated for an epiretinal membrane (ERM), with or without intraoperative intraocular indocyanine green (ICG) injection. METHODS Retrospective study of 75 pseudophakic eyes with epiretinal membrane operated by vitrectomy-peeling. In 20 cases operated in 2001 and 2002 (Group 1), ICG diluted in 5% glucose solution was injected intraoperativ...
متن کاملPars plana vitrectomy and subretinal surgery for ocular toxocariasis.
The clinical course of ocular toxocariasis and the chronological development of peripheral retinal and macular granulomas are reported. Removing the epiretinal as well as subretinal component of the granuloma via pars plana vitrectomy and retinotomy techniques yielded an excellent clinical result. Clinicopathologic correlation of the specimen confirmed the diagnosis with histological evidence o...
متن کاملAn eye model for practicing vitreoretinal membrane peeling.
A cost-effective, reusable practice eye model for epiretinal membrane peeling that uses easily obtained, commercially available materials was developed. A commercially available globe that is anatomically and optically similar to the human eye was modified by creating 2 ports that simulate superior sclerotomies. The model has a removable plastic anterior segment, which allows access to the post...
متن کاملOcular Toxocariasis
Toxocara canis/cati are parasitic nematodes that resides in the small intestine of dogs, cats and wild carnivores. They are found worldwide. Female worms are approximately 10 cm long and produce hundreds of embrionated eggs per day. Following several weeks in the environment, the embryo matures to the infective larval stage within the egg. It can remain viable for very long periods of time. The...
متن کاملOcular toxocariasis in adults.
Human infection by toxocara larvae has been thought to be predominantly a disease of young children, but the percentage of the population with antibodies to this nematode worm has recently been shown to increase with age. Although a definite diagnosis of ocular toxocariasis can be made only by identifying the larva histologically, the evidence in three cases presenting with recent uniocular los...
