UNLABELLED Purpose. Subthreshold diode micropulse laser (SDM) treatment is believed to be safe method of treating clinical entities involving retinal edema. We present a case of serous edematous reaction of the retina to SDM treatment. Methods. CASE REPORT Results. A patient with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) was treated with SDM Yellow multispot laser. Procedure had been pr...

Adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy (AOFVD) is a clinically heterogeneous maculopathy that may mimic other conditions and be difficult to diagnose. It is characterized by late onset, slow progression and high variability in morphologic and functional alterations. Diagnostic evaluation should include careful ophthalmoscopy and imaging studies. The typical ophthalmoscopic findings are ...

PURPOSE To report a case of cancer-associated nummular loss of the retinal pigment epithelium. METHODS A 47-year-old man with a history of hepatocellular carcinoma presented with three weeks of bilateral visual loss. His best-corrected visual acuity was 20/40 in each eye. He had multiple round confluent grayish-brown patches at the level of retinal pigment epithelium, and no pigmented choroid...

Background and objectives: To study the abnormalities in the choroidal circulation in cases of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and to compare it with fundus fluorescein angiography. Setting and Design: Prospective, interventional and non comparative case series in a tertiary eye care institute. Material and Methods: 40 consecutive cases of CSC were included in the study. A complete clini...

A case of a 14 year-old boy that was admitted complaining of bilateral ocular visual blurring for 2 years is reported. The ophthalmological examination disclosed bilateral mild optic disc hyperemia and swelling, retinal exudation, few retinal hemorrhages, multiple aneurysms, as well as vasculitis. Fluorescein angiography showed extensive peripheral retinal ischemia, dilatations and hyperfluores...

A laser flare-cell meter was used to examine blood-aqueous barrier function in a 21-year-old male patient who had typical retinitis punctata albescens with white dots scattered throughout large areas of the fundus in both eyes. Fluorescein angiography showed multiple areas of hyperfluorescence over dot lesions and window defects. Electroretinogram demonstrated subnormal amplitude and electroocu...

Bilateral diffuse uveal melanocytic proliferation is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome that presents with bilateral progressive loss of vision. A 70-year-old woman presented with a 3-month history of progressive, bilateral vision loss. The patient had bilateral, diffuse, shallow, subretinal fluid with patchy, reddish-brown lesions at the level of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) that showed si...

Lacquer cracks are thought to represent healed mechanical breaks in the retinal pigment epithelium, Bruch's membrane, and choriocapillaris complex. In this study, we analyzed the indocyanine green (ICG) angiographic features of lacquer cracks and compared them with findings using fluorescein angiography. Complete ophthalmologic examinations, fluorescein angiography, and ICG angiography were per...

A 47-year-old Japanese man had a progressive degeneration of the retina and choroid along the retinal veins associated with uveitis of two years' duration. The lesion was characteristic of paravenous retinochoroidal atrophy: a contiguous atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium and choroid of one-half to one disc diameter in size was present along most of the veins from the posterior pole to t...

Organic light emitters based on multiresonance-induced thermally activated delayed fluorescent materials have great potential for realizing efficient, narrowband organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). However, at high brightness operation, efficiency roll-off attributed to the slow reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) process hinders use of in practical applications. Here we report a heavy-atom ...
