Purpose To report potentially distinguishing characteristics between bacterial endophthalmitis and presumed noninfectious associated with intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection. Methods Records of two patients culture-proven six from injections were analyzed retrospectively. Results Two eyes in had decreased vision hypopyon or vitritis, but no pain conjunctival injection 2 weeks after Seven blurred vision, hypopyon, variable all within days All seven followed up closely rapid...
• A two-site enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to quantitate levels of basic fibroblast growth factor in the vitreous from 36 patients undergoing vitrectomy for a variety retinal conditions, including proliferative diabetic retinopathy, macular pucker, and detachment with without vitreoretinopathy. Basic ranged undetectable 52 ng/mL. In were greater than or equal 30 ng/mL 8 17 specimens. Of elevated levels, 6 had evidence active disease (ie, neovascularization disc iris), whereas...
In Brief Purpose: To evaluate same-day combination intravitreal bevacizumab/panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) for the treatment of neovascular glaucoma (NVG) compared with PRP alone. Methods: This was an institutional review board-approved, retrospective, consecutive case-control study patients receiving bevacizumab/PRP or alone as NVG from September 2004 through June 2007. Visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), presence anterior segment neovascularization, and required interventional...
To describe the effects of intravitreal bevacizumab in eyes with macular edema resulting from central retinal vein occlusions (CRVO).Retrospective consecutive case series patients diagnosed CRVO who received bevacizumab.Thirty 29 an average age 72 years (range, 54-87 years) had injections. Mean follow-up was 18.1 weeks. Initial mean visual acuity 20/394. At 1- and 2-month follow-up, improved to 20/237 (n = 26, P 0.04) 20/187 21, 0.008), respectively. 3- 4-month 20/228 20/157 15, 0.05) 20/313...
Purpose: To investigate the incidence and outcomes of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) occurring after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) subretinal tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) for submacular hemorrhage (SMH). Methods: Charts were reviewed between April 1, 2014 September 2023 eyes that underwent PPV/subretinal tPA SMH. Results: Out 167 eyes, 15 (9%) developed RRD with macular in 12 (80%) proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) 9 (60%). The median (interquartile range, IQR) time from...
ABSTRACT We describe a young patient with combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium who developed bilateral acoustic neuromas men ing iomas cervical-medullary junction fifth cranial nerve. This case illustrates association between neurofibromatosis type 2. The authors recommend that children be screened for
