Purpose: To evaluate Optical coherence tomographic (OCT) biomarkers in participants diagnosed with diabetes, diabetic retinopathy (DR) and macular edema (DME) co relation disease severity.Methods: Demographics, visual acuity, SD-OCT, colour fundus photographs of 110 individuals DR DME (200 eyes) evaluated between December 2020 October 2022 were analysed to severity corelation. Features captured...

PURPOSE To find a predictor in the pathogenesis of macular edema, we investigated ocular and systemic risk factors. METHODS One hundred and fifty-nine patients with mild diabetic retinopathy who showed one or more soft exudates were recruited. We selected the possible predictors on the basis of relevant factors, including concentration of vascular endothelial growth factor, interleukin-6 (IL-...

A case of chronic intermediate uveitis and associated classic snowbanking (pars planitis) with severe cystoid macular oedema probably due to Lyme borreliosis is reported. Despite a disease duration of 10 years the patient's ocular symptoms and visual acuity responded promptly to intravenous ceftriaxone treatment. This case demonstrates that periodic reevaluation of patients with intermediate uv...

Fingolimod is the first oral drug approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for multiple sclerosis (MS). It is a sphingosine-1phosphate–receptor modulator that prevents lymphocyte egress from lymph nodes and enhances astrocyte function. In this retrospective case series, 4 eyes from 3 patients developed cystoid macular edema (CME) after initiating fingolimod therapy. The study was approve...

Intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is now accepted as the most effective means of aphakic correction in selected patients undergoing cataract surgery. In terms of final rehabilitation, however, complications such as corneal oedema, retinal detachment, and cystoid macular oedema remain problematic. Results of prospective concurrent trials of IOL implantation performed at the Wilmer Institute ar...

This article gives an overview of the vitreal anatomy and its changes in ageing, which have a significant impact on the two main retinal complications after damage of the vitreolenticular barrier, namely retinal detachment and cystoid macular edema. The possible reasons and pathomechanisms for this entity of retinal diseases in the context of anterior segment interaction are highlighted, and a ...

Extensive retinal vascular disease was noted in three patients from two families with Favre-Goldmann syndrome. In addition to classical features they had pronounced leakage from some retinal vessels. Vessels were either opaque ('sclerotic') or non-perfused. Cystoid macular oedema was a contributing cause of decreased vision. Two of the three patients showed a discrepancy on electroretinography ...

BACKGROUND Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) retinopathy can accompany other retinal complications such as cystoid macular edema (CME), which leads to central visual loss. We report a case of CME with HCQ retinopathy that improved with the use of oral acetazolamide, and discussed the possible mechanisms of CME in HCQ retinopathy using multimodal imaging modalities. CASE PRESENTATION A 62-year-old pati...
