purpose: to report a young patient with microphthalmos associated with bilateral papillomacular fold and severe hyperopia case report: in this observational case report, a sixteen-year-old young man was referred with high hyperopia to al-zahra eye hospital, zahedan university of medicalf sciences, zahedan, iran, for check up. spherical error in right eye (re) was +14.75 d and in the left eye (l...

Aim. To report the optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings in three members of the same family with nanophthalmos associated with elevated papillomacular retinal fold. Methods. Complete ophthalmic examination as well as ultrasonography and OCT was performed in all patients. Results. Axial lengths ranged from 16.75 mm to 17.48 mm and refractive errors ranged from +17.50 D to +20.50 D. Main f...

The organization of the retinal nerve fiber layer of the cynomolgus monkey was studied by electron microscopy. Nerve fiber size spectra were obtained from measurements of every fiber in enlarged montages of selected bundles. Variation in spectra among nasal, arcuate, and papillomacular bundles was examined, and variation of spectra of a given bundle as it crossed the retina was determined. Amon...

PURPOSE Novel spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) findings in posterior microphthalmos (PM) include cystoid changes in the papillomacular fold (PMF). These changes may be misdiagnosed as cystoid macular edema (CME) and may trigger unnecessary treatment including intravitreal injections. We report a case that underscores this scenario aiming to increase awareness of this entity...

PURPOSE To investigate whether correcting the circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cpRNFL) thickness profile, using retinal artery position and papillomacular bundle tilt, can improve the structure-function relationship in glaucoma patients. METHODS Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and visual field measurements were conducted in 142 eyes of 90 subjects with open ang...

PURPOSE To compare the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) defects in early glaucomatous eyes between highly and non-highly myopic eyes. METHODS Sixty-one highly myopic eyes (< -6.0 diopters [D]) of 61 patients and 55 non-highly myopic eyes of 55 patients with early visual field (VF) defects were studied. The angular locations and widths of the RNFL defects were measured from red-free fundus pho...

Microphthalmos is a developmental ocular disorder defined as a small eyeball. The condition can be associated with abnormalities of anterior and posterior segments. The most common anterior characteristics include corneal opacities, angle-closure and a shallow anterior chamber and cataract. The main findings of posterior segment are uveal effusion, retinal folds, abnormalities of macular capill...

PURPOSE To report the visual result of Surgery for traumatic macular hole with choroidal rupture running across papillomacular bundle. METHOD Observation case report Patient 20 year old male patient presented with acute vison loss in OS with BCVA reduced to 20/80 following blunt trauma. Examination revealed full thickness macular hole with choroidal rupture between disc and macula, spanning a...
