PURPOSE To report a case of Purtscher-like retinopathy after weightlifting. METHODS A 17-year-old man presented with a sudden visual loss in his left eye after weightlifting two weeks ago. Fundus examination of the left eye showed cotton-wool spots and scattered retinal hemorrhages in the posterior pole. Fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography with a scanning laser ophthalmo...

We report a patient with frosted branch-like appearance retinal vasculitis associated with peripheral capillary nonperfusion and full-field electroretinographic changes. A 62-year-old man presented with sudden bilateral decreased vision accompanied by headaches. His best-corrected visual acuity was 0.01 in both eyes. Fundus examination and fluorescein angiography showed bilateral frosted branch...

aim: to report a patient with fundus flavimaculatus or macular dystrophy with flecks, who came to medical attention due to deteriorated vision in one eye and combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium. case presentation: a 26 year old lady was referred with history of progressive decreased vision in both eyes since childhood with recently deteriorated vision in her right ey...

Macular telangiectasia type 2 (Mac Tel 2) also known as idiopathic perifoveal telangiectasia and juxtafoveolar retinal telangiectasis type 2A is an enigmatic disease of unknown etiology. It manifests both neurodegenerative and vasculopathic characteristics. It manifests itself during the fifth or sixth decades of life. Clinical characteristics include minimally dilated parafoveal capillaries wi...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of flavonoid glycoside on mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammatory oxidative stress in macular degeneration. Sixty specific-pathogen-free male Bagg Albino mice were randomly divided into control, model glycoside. Human retinal pigment epithelium cells ARPE-19 cultured treated with dimethyl sulfoxide, sodium iodate respectively. Fundus fluorescein an...

The analysis of different image modalities is frequently performed in ophthalmology as they provide complementary information for the diagnosis and follow-up of relevant diseases, like hypertension or diabetes. This work presents an hybrid method for the multimodal registration of color fundus retinography and fluorescein angiography. The proposed method combines a feature-based approach, using...

BACKGROUND Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a granulomatous panuveitis, usually involving both eyes at the same time or within a few days or weeks. Acute and chronic diseases are characterized by distinct clinical features, treatment modalities, and visual outcomes. We report an atypical case of probable VKH disease, with features of acute disease in one eye and chronic disease in the fell...

PURPOSE To evaluate new grading criteria for geographic atrophy (GA), as detected by annual stereoscopic color fundus photographs and fluorescein angiograms, and to assess whether application of the revised criteria provides earlier identification of GA than previous criteria involving only color fundus photography. METHODS Annual fundus image sets from 114 CAPT patients who developed GA in t...
