INTRODUCTION Cogan's Syndrome is typically characterised by a non syphilitic interstitial keratitis (IK), with or without conjunctivitis, iritis or subconjunctival bleeding and progressive sensorineural hearing loss within two years of ocular signs. Atypical ocular manifestations include episcleritis, scleritis, posterior scleritis, retinal artery occlusion, choroiditis, retinal vasculitis, and...

purpose: to report treatment with intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (ivta) in a patient with cystoid macular edema (cme) secondary to retinitis pigmentosa (rp). case report: a 22-year-old male patient with rp presented with progressive visual loss. visual acuity was 9/10 in the right eye and 10/10 in the left eye without refractive error. examination revealed cme in the right eye. after fail...

Anecdotal case reports describe the occurrence of cystoid macular edema, iritis, herpes simplex keratitis, periocular skin darkening, and headaches in patients treated with prostaglandin analogs for glaucoma. The purpose of this article is to critically analyze these anecdotal case reports in light of a few well-controlled, randomized clinical studies to determine whether conclusions can be mad...

OBJECTIVE To describe a syndrome of posterior segment intraocular inflammation that causes visual loss in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and cytomegalovirus retinitis. This syndrome was associated with immune recovery mediated by combination antiretroviral treatment including protease inhibitors. DESIGN A case-control study at 2 university medical centers. PARTICIPANTS One...

The authors presented a clinical case of retinitis punctate albescens in a 26-year-old female patient, with a family history of typical retinitis pigmentosa (father) and bilateral cystoid macular edema treated with anti-VEGF (bevacizumab).

PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between the cystoid spaces in the outer plexiform layer (OPL) and the characteristics of the photoreceptors beneath the cystoid spaces in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME). METHODS In this observational cross-sectional study, 123 eyes of 96 consecutive patients with clinically significant macular edema were retrospectively reviewed. The charact...

Background: Cystoid Macular Edema (CME) is one of the most common and sight threatening complications of uveitis. Intravitreal injection of corticosteroids and anti-VEGF antibody are two routine options for treatment. Objective: To compare the effects of intravitreal injections of Bevacizumab and Triamcinolone Acetonide for the treatment of persistent macular edema in non-infectious uveitis. Me...
