A case of a macular idiopathic choriovitreal membrane is described which developed in a diabetic man. On initial examination the patient was found to have a pigment epithelial detachment with a choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM) in the right eye. Two months after the first visit the CNVM was seen to have penetrated the retina and presented as a choriovitreal membrane. Panretinal photocoagula...

To determine the clinical course of untreated retinal pigment epithelial detachment we reviewed data from 50 eyes of 42 patients followed up for an average of 29 months without photocoagulation. In 14 eyes with avascular lesions, in patients under 50 years of age, all had a final vision of 20/30 or better. None developed neovascularisation or haemorrhage. In 17 eyes with avascular lesions in pa...

BACKGROUND We are reporting a case of granulomatous panuveitis in the right eye following penetrating injury to the left eye. FINDINGS A 34-year-old female was diagnosed to have sympathetic ophthalmia on treatment with systemic steroids. Vision did not improve in spite of aggressive systemic steroid therapy. On examination, patient had large retinal pigment epithelial rip nasal to the disc wi...

Objective This study investigated the efficacy of low-dose transpupillary thermotherapy in Asian eyes diagnosed with subfoveal retinal-pigment epithelial detachment. Methods Records of seven patients from different medical institutions were included in this nonrandomized retrospective series. All patients were diagnosed to have unilateral retinal-pigment epithelial detachment and underwent trea...

Herein, we report two cases of vision loss after successful cataract surgery, associated with drusenoid retinal pigment epithelial detachment without features of choroidal neovascularization on optical coherence tomography along with angiographic examinations suggestive of choroidal neovascularization in which anatomical and functional improvements were achieved with intravitreal injections of ...

This manuscript describes a case of successful reattachment of a macular-off retinal detachment following optical coherence tomography-guided internal drainage of retained subretinal fluid following a nondrain method. To date, there has not been any documented treatment option for this common phenomenon. This novel technique describes a method to remove such fluid and successfully appose the re...

BACKGROUND Idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy is an abnormal choroidal vascular pathology similar to age-related macular degeneration. It may present with sudden visual loss from hemorrhagic retinal pigment epithelial detachment and breakthrough vitreous hemorrhage or with chronic recurrent episodes. The condition is not uncommon in the retina clinic at the University College Hospital...

BACKGROUND The aim of our study was to evaluate the functional and anatomic outcomes of intravitreal ranibizumab for the treatment of symptomatic drusenoid pigment epithelial detachment without choroidal neovascularization in age-related macular degeneration. METHODS This was a prospective, single-center, uncontrolled, interventional pilot study. Six consecutive eyes (six patients) with druse...
