PURPOSE To investigate the incidence of neovascularization of the iris (NVI) and clinical features of patients with NVI following acute central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). METHODS A retrospective review of 214 consecutive CRAO patients who visited one tertiary hospital between January 2009 and January 2015 was conducted. In total, 110 patients were eligible for this study after excluding...

The iris vascular bed of eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome has been studied with electron microscopy. Two of the eyes suffered from painful glaucoma, whereas the third showed normal intraocular pressure. The following changes were observed: (1) deposits of pseudoexfoliation material lying adjacent to the endothelial wall; (2) thin vessel basement membrane, sometimes even interrupted; (3) ext...

In the Eye Outpatient Department of H.P. Medical College Hospital, Simla, nine cases of capsular exfoliation affecting seventeen eyes were seen in the course of 6 months. Their main features are given in Table I (overleaf, pp. I22 and 123). All the patients were males between the ages of 6o and 76 years. The capsular exfoliation was associated with phakodonesis, iridodonesis, glaucoma, primary ...

A frequently cited theory for the pathogenesis of neovascularization in diabetic retinopathy is that retinal hypoxia and/or ischemia release a factor which stimulates neovascularization. To the authors' knowledge, there is no direct in vivo evidence in the human proving this theory. One hundred and twenty-two diabetic subjects were studied to see whether worsening retinopathy was associated wit...

Vascular changes of the iris were studied in 6 patients with chronic anterior uveitis of varying aetiology by means of fluorescein angiography. In 1 case the angiographic findings of the second eye were compared with the histopathological changes in the fellow eye enucleated earlier because of absolute glaucoma. In the milder cases abnormal superficial vessels were seen mainly in relation to th...

background: to compare the efficacy of subconjunctival administration of bevacizumab and different doses of sunitinib malate in reducing corneal neovascularization (cnv). materials and methods: in this experimental study, central corneal cauterization was created in the right eye of fifty male sprague–dawley rats. on day 1 (1 week after cauterization), rats were randomly assigned into five trea...

This review provides a detailed summary of the issues etiology, pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms corneal neovascularization. Signaling molecules involved in process neovasculogenesis, as well their antagonists, antiangiogenic factors, are described. The role signaling proteins VEGF, MMP receptors modern targets therapy is described on basis series clinical studies. potentials gene bioengin...

Eales' disease is an idiopathic obliterative retinal vasculopathy that is treated with laser photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy. In order to determine visual outcomes and regression of retinal neovascularization following scattered peripheral retinal photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy in cases with Eales' disease, we did a retrospective study of the records of these patients treated in La...

Intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) has increasingly been applied as treatment for various intraocular neovascular and oedematous diseases. Comparing the various diseases with respect to effect and side-effects of the treatment, the best response in terms of gain in visual acuity (VA) has been achieved for intraretinal oedematous diseases such as diffuse diabetic macular oedema, branch ...
