Baseline subfoveal choroidal thickness as an indicator for bevacizumab outcomes in central retinal vein occlusion
Background: Retinal vein occlusions are one of the most common form of retinal vascular disorders and could lead to vision loss due to macular edema, macular ischemia and sequelae from neovascularization. Anti-venous endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment is the choice strategy of treatment for patients with macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). There is an ...
متن کاملReview of Choroidal Osteomas
Choroidal osteomas are rare benign ossifying tumors that appear as irregular slightly elevated, yellow-white, juxtapapillary, choroidal mass with well-defined geographic borders, depigmentation of the overlying pigment epithelium; and with multiple small vascular networks on the tumor surface. Visual loss results from three mechanisms: Atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium overlying a decal...
متن کاملTranspupilary thermotherapy of occult subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age related macular degeneration
Abstract Background: Transpupillary thermotherapy is a new treatment for subfoveal choroidal neovascularization which needs further evaluation. This study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of transpupillary thermotherapy on regression of occult subfoveal choroidal neovascularization with or without pigment epithelial detachment in patients with age-related macular degeneration. Methods: In a ...
متن کاملN -(Carboxymethyl)Lysine-Induced Choroidal Angiogenic Potential Facili- tates Retinal Neovascularization in Advanced-Diabetic Rat In Vitro
N -(Carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) over-stimulates choroidal neovascularization in vitro in streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rat. In this study, we investigated the effects of CML-induced choroidal angiogenic potential on retinal neovascularization during the course of STZ-induced diabetes in rats. Retinal and choroidal explants were isolated from the same eyeball of early-diabetic, advanced-diabetic ...
متن کاملRegulation of Angiogenesis in Choroidal Neovascularization of Age Related Macular Degeneration by Endogenous Angioinhibitors
The sense of vision has utmost significance and the loss of vision leads to the impairment of active human behavior as evident in pathological disorders that affect vision. Among different pathological visual disorders, Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD/ARMD) is of serious concern as a leading cause of blindness, observed with aging globally. The clinical manifestation of AMD includes retin...
