Purpose To report a novel finding in a case of idiopathic recurrent branch retinal arterial occlusions. Observations We report our findings in a 31-year-old woman with an idiopathic recurrent branch retinal arterial occlusions (BRAOs) who was followed in our clinic for 16 years. Repeated fluorescein angiographies were performed to evaluate the idiopathic recurrent BRAOs. The findings showed m...

BACKGROUND The present study investigates how often a simultaneous fluorescein and indocyanine green (ICG) angiography had therapeutic consequences and if it is useful as a clinical routine diagnostic tool. PATIENTS AND METHODS 502 consecutive simultaneous angiographies in eyes with exudative macular degeneration were retrospectively studied. RESULTS A classic extra- or juxtafoveolar choroi...

eales' disease is an idiopathic obliterative retinal vasculopathy that is treated with laser photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy. in order to determine visual outcomes and regression of retinal neovascularization following scattered peripheral retinal photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy in cases with eales' disease, we did a retrospective study of the records of these patients treated...

Research in the pathophysiology of retinal detachments would be aided if an experimental model of such a lesion could be achieved. In an attempt to produce such a model, it was felt essential to cause vitreal as well as retinal alterations. This role of vitreoretinal adhesions and liquefaction of the vitreous as the two main anatomic factors in the etiology of the idiopathic type of retinal det...

The authors describe a case report of idiopathic asymptomatic giant retinal cyst with underlying hyperpigmentation. Low- and high-frequency ultrasound (ultrasound biomicroscopy) revealed an anechoic giant cyst with two hyper-reflective traction bands between the ciliary body and the anterior base of the retinal cyst. There was no retinal detachment.
