We report a rare case of a young boy presenting with bilateral blurring of vision following a viral like illness. Fundus examination revealed multiple pale cream-coloured lesions scattered across the posterior pole of both eyes. Fundus fluorescein angiography showed characteristic features of early hypofluorescence and late hyperfluorescence, further confirming the diagnosis of acute posterior ...

Mutations in the ABCA4 gene are a common cause of Stargardt disease; however, other retinal phenotypes have also been associated with mutations this gene. We describe an observational case report unusual clinical phenotype disease. The ophthalmological examination included best corrected visual acuity, color and autofluorescence photography, fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography...

There is eridence that microemboli responsible for araaurosis fugax may be atheromatous but it can elude ophthaimoscopic confirmation, because such emboii quickly fragment and disappear from view in the retinal vessels. This report documents 2 patients in whom fluorescein angiography of the retina provided evidence of microembolization after an attack of amaurosis although the fundus appeared n...

The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of fundus autofluorescence (FAF) in patients with wet (exudative) age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Color fundus photographs, fundus fluorescein angiograms, indocyanine green angiograms, and FAF images were obtained from 61 patients (72 eyes) with exudative AMD. The FAF results for different patterns of exudative AMD were compar...

BACKGROUND An indocyanine-green (ICG) angiography is rarely used as the only diagnostic procedure. Almost always it is performed additionally to a fluorescein angiography. The use of simultaneous ICG and fluorescein (SIF) angiography therefore makes sense. Several examples for the application of SIF-angiography are presented. MATERIALS AND METHODS SIF-angiography was performed using a 2-wavel...

PURPOSE. To describe and evaluate the performance of a computerized automated segmentation technique for use in quantification of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ). METHODS. A computerized technique for automated segmentation of the FAZ using images from fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) was applied to 26 transit-phase images obtained from patients with various grades of diabetic retinopathy. ...

Injection of fluorescein intravenously for fundal angiography is associated with a high incidence of minor adverse effects (21%) but a very low incidence of serious (life threatening) reactions (0.05%). A serious reaction may occur without warning in a patient with no history of atopy. There are no reports of oral fluorescein causing a serious reaction, and minor adverse effects are uncommon. A...
