Ciliary body medulloepithelioma (CBME), a pediatric intraocular tumor with potential for locally aggressive behavior and metastasis, may present diverse spectrum of clinical histopathologic features leading to diagnostic management challenges. Examination unusual CBME cases highlights challenges modern techniques which facilitate accurate diagnosis guide management. A retrospective clinicopathologic analysis 6 patients or pathologic was performed. The mean duration delay in 5.7 years (SD:...
Abstract Purpose The goal of this study was to review the incidence, risk factors and outcomes microbial keratitis after penetrating keratoplasty (PK) endothelial (EK). Methods electronic medical records at Wills Eye Hospital were queried for cases following PK or EK performed between 1 May 2007 September 2018. Charts reviewed obtain demographic data, transplant characteristics, details keratitis, graft survival clinical outcomes. Results During period, 2098 transplants in 1601 patients. Of...
Some eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) have persistent exudation despite frequent intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections. Adjuvant therapies that further reduce edema may improve vision outcomes.To compare the short-term effect of topical dorzolamide-timolol vs placebo in AMD following anti-VEGF injections.Randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial enrollment from March 1, 2017, through October 30, 2018. Multicenter at 4 sites...
Background: To compare the incidence and outcomes of ocular hypertension (OHT) after intravitreal injection 0.7 mg dexamethasone (DEX) 2 triamcinolone acetonide (IVT).Methods: In a single-center, retrospective comparative case series, all patients with at least 3 months follow-up receiving IVT 3/1/2012 – 3/1/2017 or 10/1/2014 were included. Ocular was defined as an intraocular pressure (IOP) ≥ 25 mmHg. Patients minimum any other form topical, oral, steroid excluded.Results: 106 eyes in 100...
To compare 2 mg intravitreal triamcinolone (IVT) versus 40 posterior sub-Tenon acetonide (STT) for the treatment of eyes with pseudophakic cystoid macular edema.A retrospective, single-center review receiving IVT between 3/1/2012-3/1/2017 and STT 1/1/2015-3/1/2017. Visual acuity (VA) central thickness (CMT) were recorded at baseline, 1-, 3-, 6-month follow-up visits.Forty-five included in group 50 group. Change VA from baseline to 1, 3, 6 months was not significantly different (6 months: 2.3...
Visual outcomes after postinjection endophthalmitis have been well-studied, but the effect of on underlying exudative disease process remains unclear. We investigate need for continued anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injections endophthalmitis.Eyes that developed intravitreal injection between January 1, 2016, and May 31, 2018, at a single academic retina practice were identified. Retrospective chart review was performed to determine 1) proportion eyes without recurrence macular...

A full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) is a rare sequela to submacular hemorrhage. Herein, the authors report case of an 80-year-old man actively being treated for neovascular age-related degeneration who presented with sudden vision loss in right eye. Examination optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging revealed The patient underwent vitrectomy subretinal tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) no intraoperative complications. Dilated fundus examination and OCT FTMH at postop week 1. Possible...
