چکیده
Fuchs endothelial dystrophy had DSAEK in the left eye for bullous keratopathy after cataract surgery and trabeculectomy in 1997. Preoperatively, the BSCVA in this eye was 20/200. On the first postoperative day, characteristic interface wavelike deposit accumulation was visualized on slitlamp examination despite corneal edema (Figure 2). A short trial of intensive steroids (from 4 times initially to 8 times per day) was tried without any evidence of deposit appearance. No evidence of interface fluid was found using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (Visante; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, California). At the 1-year follow-up examination, interface deposits remained stable. Despite complete resolution of the corneal edema, the patient’s uncorrected and best spectaclecorrected visual acuity did not improve (20/200).

BACKGROUND Congenital macular coloboma is a rare ocular disease that consists of atrophic lesions in the macula with well-circumscribed borders. We report the findings of spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) at the fixation point in a case of bilateral macular coloboma. CASE REPORT The subject is a 4-year-old boy. He visited our hospital at age 1 year and 4 months for the eva...
متن کاملAtypical presentations of ocular toxoplasmosis.
The diagnosis of ocular toxoplasmosis is based most often on the presence of characteristic clinical findings, which include focal retinochoroiditis, an adjacent or nearby retinochoroidal scar, and moderate to severe vitreous inflammation. However, a variety of less common, "atypical" presentations may be unfamiliar to clinicians, delaying both diagnosis and treatment. Patients who are immunoco...
