Purpose: To investigate the morphological and functional outcome of refractory large macular hole (MH) with autologous neurosensory retinal free flap transplantation. Methods: This case series enrolled 10 patients suffering from MH at Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taiwan. All eyes underwent pars plana vitrectomy, a 1.5 to 2-MH diameter was harvested. We used an adhesive agent such as whole blood or Viscoat assist stabilization then use tamponade silicone oil vitreous...

Purpose . To investigate the functional and anatomical outcome of 0.7 mg dexamethasone (Ozurdex) intravitreal implant (IVD) in eyes with long-term macular edema after epiretinal membrane removal. Methods We enrolled 40 persistent at least 12 months Twenty IVD group received other 20 were control group. The main measures change best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) central foveal thickness (CFT). Results For group, mean BCVA improved by 3.45 lines to 0.47 logMAR one month IVD. However, only...

To evaluate the long-term anatomic and functional outcomes of autologous neurosensory retinal free flap transplantation (ART) for patients with refractory large macular hole (MH). Retrospective interventional case series. We reviewed 9 who underwent ART their MH. In this extended follow-up study, postoperative assessment including spectral-domain optical coherence tomography best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were recorded at 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 months after surgery. The all appeared...

Giant retinal tear is usually challenging among detachment with recurrent rate up to 45%. Here we presented a case of giant being treated by microincision vitrectomy and tacks fixation. A 53-year-old male our hospital blurred vision his right eye for one week floaters obscured sensation over nasal visual field. Ocular examination showed 120 degree large inverted flap eye. The BCVA was only naming digit. Under the impression detachment, 23-gauge pars plana were performed using Constellation...

Abstract Amantadine hydrochloride (HCl) is commonly prescribed for treating influenza A virus infection and Parkinson’s disease. Recently, several studies have indicated that the use of amantadine HCl associated with corneal edema; however, cytotoxic effect has not been investigated. In present study, effects on cell growth, proliferation, apoptosis in bovine cornea endothelial cells, vitro permeability were examined. Results showed lower doses do affect growth (≤ 20 μΜ), whereas higher...
