purpose: to present a case of bilateral idiopathic central serous chorioretinopthy (icsc) complicated by bullous serous retinal detachment (rd). case report: a 26-year old female suffered from acute loss of vision in the both eyes. best spectacle-corrected visual acuity was 1/10 ou. the examination of anterior segment was unremarkable and a mild vitreous reaction was noted. dilated fundus exami...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To evaluate ultrasonography outcomes in eyes with stage 5 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with bilateral stage 5 ROP were evaluated retrospectively. Ultrasonography examination was performed in all cases. Patients' demographic features and ultrasonography findings such as axial eye length, funnel configuration, subretinal hemorrhage, an...

CASE REPORT A 34-year-old man with severe myopia, presented with acute visual loss in his right eye. This occurred 3 hours after a posterior chamber phakic (PCP) intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, and was associated with a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Retinal retachment surgery was performed without complications, with the outcome showing good anatomical and functional results during a ...

Retinal detachment is the physical separation of the retina from the retinal pigment epithelium. It occurs during aging, trauma, or during a variety of retinal disorders such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity, or as a complication following cataract surgery. This report investigates the role of fibulin 2, an extracellular component, in retinal...

BACKGROUD Choroidal detachment (CD) following primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a special type of RRD. The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential risk factors of RRD with CD in a Chinese population. METHODS All of 201 consecutive RRD with CD patients and 210 RRD without CD patients were enrolled in this case-control retrospective study. The clinical data from t...

OBJECTIVES Several observational studies have been published investigating the association between oral fluoroquinolone use and the development of retinal detachment; however, the findings are not concordant. This study is a meta-analysis of the existing literature and estimates the overall absolute risk of such an event. METHODS Electronic databases were searched for observational studies on...

PURPOSE To determine the retinal features seen on enhanced spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) associated with foveal retinal detachment in eyes with myopic macular retinoschisis. DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS We reviewed fundus photographs and conventional and enhanced SD-OCT images of 21 eyes of 19 patients with myopic macular retinoschisis. Features seen on ...

OBJECTIVES To assess the frequency of retinal detachment following postcataract endophthalmitis and to evaluate the results of management of these detachments. METHODS Prospective data collected as part of the Endophthalmitis Vitrectomy Study were analyzed. The study was a randomized clinical trial testing the roles of vitrectomy and intravenous antibiotics in restoring vision in patients wit...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: ketamine, a non-competitive nmda (n-methyl- d -aspartate) receptor antagonist, is recognized as an intraoperative anesthetic agent. increasing interest in the use of low-dose ketamine for postoperative analgesia has developed in part because of its nmda-antagonistic properties, which may be important in attenuating central sensitization ...

OBJECTIVES A study reported a significant association between oral fluoroquinolones and the development of retinal detachment among current users of oral fluoroquinolones (Etminan M, Forooghian F, Brophy JM et al. JAMA 2012; 307: 1414-9). However, other published studies have discordant results. This study aimed to investigate this association and to estimate the absolute risk of developing ret...
