CLINIC CASE Two patients with systemic lupus erythematosus presented with vision loss, and were diagnosed with retinal vasculopathy. Patient 1 had occlusive vasculitis with macular oedema and retinal ischaemia in the right eye. Corticosteroid therapy was increased and intravenous rituximab added. Intravitreal therapy and panretinal photocoagulation were performed. Patient 2 presented with a lef...

PURPOSE To identify significant fluorescein angiographic (FA) characteristics associated with visual acuity (VA) in Behçet retinal vasculitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective review of 86 eyes of 48 patients (age: 35.6±10.2 years) with Behçet retinal vasculitis were performed. VA and FA findings as well as correlation between them were assessed. RESULTS The mean initial VA of eyes with ...

Objective To evaluate the etiologies for dense vitreous hemorrhage in adults with non-traumatic and reveal management of early vitrectomy for the disease. Methods Study included 105 eyes from 105 patients. Outcome measures were etiologies of vitreous hemorrhage, formation of retinal and/or disk neovascular membrane (NVM), incidence of retinal tear and detachment, visual acuity (VA) and postoper...

BACKGROUND Acute Multifocal Hemorrhagic Retinal Vasculitis (AMHRV) is a rare disease with unknown incidence that presents with abrupt onset of visual loss associated with retinal vasculitis, retinal hemorrhage, non-confluent posterior retinal infiltrates, vitreous cellular inflammation and papillitis in, otherwise, healthy adult individuals. The reported treatment options for Acute Multifocal H...

A 15‐year‐old girl complaining of reduced visual acuity (VA) in both eyes since 2 months before was referred to our retina service in January 2011. Best corrected visual acuity was 5/10 in both eyes. External eye examination was normal. Biomicroscopy revealed +1 anterior chamber cells and +1 old vitreous cells bilaterally. Other anterior segment structures and intraocular pressure (IOP) were no...

conclusions the individuals should have multidisciplinary approach for the variety of disorders to maintain the appropriate treatment for a better appearance of the patients. case presentation we describe a patient with progressive hemifacial atrophy at right facial side who developed granulomatous uveitis and periferic retinal vasculitis in his left eye. we started topical and systemic steroid...

She had been treated with intravenous steroids for optic neuritis 2 months earlier when her visual acuity had improved from 20/200 to 20/20 in left eye. Currently, she complained of recurrent episodic vi...

Purpose To report a case of retinal vasculitis associated with birdshot chorioretinitis which was responsive to topical difluprednate alone. Observations Two months after initiation of topical difluprednate, fluorescein angiography demonstrated resolution of retinal vasculitis in both treated eyes. Worsening of vasculitis with attempted taper of difluprednate and subsequent control with prior...
