purpose: to describe the variability of ocular and systemic findings in two brothers with gaucher's disease. case report: ophthalmic, general clinical evaluation and enzymatic studies were performed in two brothers, 14 and 7 years old with gaucher’s disease. mental retardation, occipital meningomyelocele and gaucher cells in bone marrow in addition to high myopia and various fundus abnorma...

Abstract Aims Retrograde ‘fundus-first’ cholecystectomy is when the dissection starts from fundus of gallbladder to infundibulum, in case structures Calot's triangle cannot be identified. Although feasible laparoscopic cholecystectomy, it remains an underutilized approach. We aimed systematically review fundus-first and study its safety feasibility. Methods A systematic was performed compliance...

AIMS Conventional fundus imaging using a fundus camera produces colour fundus pictures. The scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) has the advantages of lower levels of light exposure, improved contrast, and direct digital imaging but until now has produced monochromatic images as a laser of single wavelength is used. True representation of the fundus is possible by combining images taken using bl...

BACKGROUND We modified and reconstructed a high image quality portable non-mydriatic fundus camera and compared it with the tabletop fundus camera to evaluate the efficacy of the new camera in detecting retinal diseases. METHODS We designed and built a novel portable handheld fundus camera with telemedicine system. The image quality of fundus cameras was compared to that of existing commercia...

PURPOSE In order to automate fundus perimetry, which is usually laborious because of the many manual operations and the frequent eye movements, we developed a new fundus perimeter with an automated measuring system using computer technology. METHODS This fundus perimeter consists of an infrared fundus camera, a fundus-pursuit unit, and a target-display unit. Both units are personal computers ...

We report a case with lacquer cracks observed in the peripheral fundus. A 37-year-old patient with bilateral high myopia who visited our clinic was examined by fluorescein angiography (FA) and fundus autofluorescence (FAF) to determine whether there were myopic fundus lesions. FA showed many arch-shaped, hyperfluorescent linear lesions running circumferentially in the peripheral fundus. FAF sho...
