Histologic examination was made of 1,419 globes from domestic animals (964 dogs, 374 cats, 41 horses, and 40 cattle) with ocular disease; pre-iridal membranes (rubeosis iridis) were found in 98. The membranes originated as endothelial budding from the anterior iridal stroma and seemed to mature into fibrous or fibrovascular membranes that were often followed by hyphema or, occasionally, glaucom...

purpose: to study the effects of adding intravitreal bevacizumab (avastin) to conventional laser treatment on regression of retinal neovascularization in threshold rop. methods: intravitreal injection of bevacizumab (1.25 mg) in one eye of each of three newborns with threshold rop was performed in addition to laser treatment. the other eye of each patient was treated with laser alone. changes i...

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...

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 ...

purpose : we describe our experience on safety and effectiveness of phacoemulsification in cataract and congenital iris coloboma and point out some specific surgical recommendations aimed to minimize its complications. methods : a prospective case series study was conducted on nineteen consecutive patients with cataract and congenital iris coloboma referred to the farabi eye hospital in tehran....

purpose: to report a case of idiopathic retinal vasculitis, aneurysm, and retinitis [irvan] with angiographic and optical coherence tomography (oct) findings. case report: a 15-year-old girl with a 2 -month history of decreased visual acuity in both eyes and best corrected visual acuity of 20/70 in both eyes was referred to the retina clinic. mild inflammation was present in anterior chamber an...

A total of 125 consecutive eyes, all registered blind with diabetic vitreous haemorrhage, underwent pars plana vitrectomy with the vitrophage. Sixty-six per cent experienced some improvement in their visual acuity; 24 per cent were unchanged and 10 per cent were worse postoperatively. The major surgical complication was controllable haemorrhage (23 per cent). No retinal dialysis occurred. Signi...

conclusions physicians should be aware of this rare site of metastasis. early diagnosis is of paramount importance in order to effectively prevent the significant morbidity this condition can cause if left untreated. introduction small cell carcinoma constitutes the most aggressive type of lung cancer, with the greatest propensity for early disseminated disease. although commonly neglected due ...

Fluorescein iris angiography and fluorophotometry were performed on a series of 9 patients with bilateral and 11 with unilateral pseudoexfoliation, 12 bilateral aphakes with pseudoexfoliation, and 7 unilateral aphakes with bilateral pseudoexfoliation. Angiography showed a loss of radial iris vessels, a heavy leak of fluorescein from the pupil margin, progressive neovascularisation of the outer ...
