To investigate the changes in macular choroidal thickness eyes with various stages of diabetic retinopathy, using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI OCT).Sixty-three consecutive patients--who presented without retinopathy (NDR); (nonproliferative [NPDR]) and no clinically significant edema (CSME-); or NDPR (CSME+)--underwent EDI OCT. Twenty-one age- sex-matched healthy subjects (21 eyes) also underwent OCT.A total 63 patients (26 female [41.2%]; mean age 65 ± 9 years,...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> To evaluate the effects of repeated intravitreal dexamethasone implant (IDI) (Ozurdex®) in eyes with macular edema (ME) due to retinal vein occlusion (RVO). <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We reviewed charts patients RVO-related ME, who received Ozurdex IDI (0.7 mg) on an ‘as-needed’ basis. Main outcome measures included changes best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central thickness (CMT), retreatment interval, and incidence side...
To evaluate the effects of a single injection Ozurdex over 6 months in eyes with persistent diabetic macular edema (DME).In this retrospective interventional study, 9 patients decreased visual acuity, as result DME, received (intravitreal dexamethasone implant 0.7 mg). Main outcome measures included changes best-corrected acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT).Nine (5 males, 4 females; mean age 58 years) were analysis. The duration DME was 49.9 (range 24-85). All had undergone...
To describe the clinical and optical coherence tomography (OCT) changes of prechoroidal cleft in treatment-naïve non-naïve neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) treated with Faricimab intravitreal injections. A case series (4 eyes from 4 patients). Cases 1 2 were diagnosed nAMD. Case showed minimal persistence after treatment visual acuity stabilization. resolution, followed by its recurrence reactivation. 3 had a history nAMD unresponsive to Aflibercept therapy. In 3,...
Background: 3D heads-up visualization systems are aimed to improve the surgical experience by providing high-resolution imaging. Objective of our study is analyze, over a long-time span, grade satisfaction and safety day-to-day surgery compared standard investigate technical distinctiveness between currently in use. Methods: In this retrospective observational case series. we reviewed all records ophthalmology-dedicated operatory rooms since arrival viewing system, November 2017. particular,...
In Brief Purpose: To investigate the impact of intravitreal dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex) on macular morphology and function in eyes with edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion. Methods: Twelve treatment-naive patients decreased visual acuity because occlusion–related were enrolled this prospective uncontrolled study. Patients treated Ozurdex followed up at 1 month 3 months for evaluation morphologic functional outcomes, by means best-corrected acuity, microperimetry, multifocal...
To describe a case of peripapillary pachychoroid syndrome (PPS) in diabetic patient with cystoid macular edema (CME), treated intravitreal dexamethasone implant (IDI) injection. This report also illustrates the history disease after repeated IDI and topical treatment.
To assess the changes in choroidal thickness different stages of Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (VMD).Thirty-four patients affected by VMD were prospectively enrolled and underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination, including best-corrected visual acuity measurement, biomicroscopic spectral domain optical coherence tomography. The Gass classification was used defining VMD. Twenty healthy subjects served as control group. Main outcome measures identification detection correlation...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> The aim of this study was to investigate the short-term retinal sensitivity and metamorphopsia changes after half-fluence photodynamic therapy (PDT) in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Patients acute CSC evidence angiographic leakage subretinal fluid on optical coherence tomography (OCT) were enrolled. Before, 1 week (W-1) 2 months (M-2) PDT, all underwent best-corrected visual...
Purpose To report 3 cases of ocular chorioretinal folds from different etiologies and their aspect with the new imaging technology optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCT-A). Methods Baseline data, investigational process on etiology, follow-up data patients referred for to Medical Retina & Imaging Unit San Raffaele Hospital in period January-March 2016 were collected. Multimodal evaluation, comprehensive infrared, fundus autofluorescence, multicolor, spectral-domain OCT,...

Premacular retrohyaloid hemorrhage is a rare complication of acute severe anemia. The authors report two cases premacular in which no treatment other than clinical and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography observation was performed. natural history this condition reveals that complete resolution not accompanied by full anatomical restoration.

Purpose To describe the previously unreported concomitance of 2 uncommon ocular conditions: posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) and large colloid drusen (LCD). Methods A 45-year-old woman underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination with slit-lamp biomicroscopy blue fundus autofluorescence spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, as well systemic renal function investigation. Results On biomicroscopy, lesion located at Descemet membrane was observed in right eye. The...
Purpose: Although acute conjunctivitis has been listed from the beginning as a possible sign of COVID-19, likelihood this association remains unclear. The aim study was to investigate relationship between COVID-19 and conjunctivitis. Methods: In retrospective, observational study, we recruited all patients with signs symptoms seen at Eye Emergency Department (ED), Turin Hospital, 01/01/2020 12/05/2020 cross-checked our data Piedmont Region online registry in same period. Results: Among...
Purpose To identify audience and faculty preferences to optimize digital education sessions in ophthalmology. Methods We distributed an online survey ophthalmology trainees specialists worldwide. The investigated respondents’ on various findings of hypothetical educational sessions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Fisher's exact probability ANOVA tests. Results was completed by 655 respondents, from 53 different countries. According most the optimal duration timeframe for a...
Purpose- To study the efficacy and safety of pro re nata regimen brolucizumab, without loading dose, in treatment-naive patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). Case series- Retrospective, observational study. We included all consecutive diagnosed treatment- naïve nAMD undergoing Brolucizumab Humanitas eye clinic, Turin, Italy between April 2022 May 2023. Treatment was performed following phase. Injection intervals (time two injections), adverse events, changes best...
Introduction: Scleral buckling (SB) has been the first technique to repair a retinal detachment (RD) and it is still largely in use. Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) currently most common technique, being more versatile easier approach. Here we report on new SB variant, modified by using some of latest technological advances borrowed from PPV. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all our cases November 2017 2018, them performed with chandelier, mounted valved trocar, provide 3D wide-angle...
