This cross-sectional study was designed to assess alterations of choroidal and retinal microvasculature in patients with Heart Failure Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF) compare them a normal age sex-matched population. Fifty-two eyes 26 HFrEF (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] < 40%) 64 32 healthy individuals were considered as the patient control groups, respectively. We found no statistically significant differences age-adjusted mean central macular thickness (CMT), superficial or...

Abstract Background To report a case of Pediatric-onset MS associated uveitis managed with local and systemic medications. Case presentation An 11-year-old boy who was diagnosed (POMS) the first left optic neuritis in another center, referred to our clinic complaint non-improved vision eye despite receiving IV 5gr methylprednisolone. After ophthalmologic examinations, patient as bilateral POMS-associated intermediate uveitis, treatment corticosteroid administered both eyes. He continued on...

To evaluate the effect of smoking on retinal thickness and macular peripapillary vascular density in thyroid eye disease (TED).In this cross-sectional study, subjects diagnosed with TED were analyzed three groups: smokers, passive non-smokers. Ganglion cell complex thickness, total superficial plexus densities, deep optic nerve head, radial capillary measured each group.Twenty-two eyes (21.6%) active 11 (10.8%) 69 (67.6%) non-smokers constitute study subjects. Twenty-one (12.6%) had status...

To evaluate the relationship between non-cystic thickening of macula on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and retinal vascular leakage fluorescein angiogram (FA) in patients with uveitis. A cross-sectional study seen uveitis clinic. Patients any degree inflammatory cells anterior vitreous were included, provided that no macular cyst or subretinal fluid atrophy was observed OCT. The correlation OCT features best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), inflammation, FA findings examined. severity...

Abstract Purpose: To investigate the correlation between choroidal biomarkers using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) scoring for monitoring activity of Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada (VKH). Methods: Patients who were not in acute phase VKH recruited. Simultaneous EDI-OCT ICGA captured seven patients only at baseline, six 3-month follow-up, two both 6- 9-month follow-ups. Subfoveal thickness (SFCT), subfoveal area (SFCA), vascular...

To report an atypical case of a transient choroidal mass lesion with spontaneous resolution. Case Presentation. A solitary overlying neurosensory retinal detachment was seen in otherwise healthy 31-year-old female. General physical examinations and serum chemistry were unremarkable. The patient had resolution two weeks after initial examination without treatment.Inflammatory masses may be self-limited, but complete diagnostic measures must always performed these patients to distinguish...
