Objectives. To demonstrate the usefulness of "en-face" Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) combined with Fluorescein Angiography (FA) in the investigation of peripapillary intrachoroidal cavitation. Materials and Methods. A 72-year-old man followed for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) for 4 years was referred for an asymptomatic "peripapillary lesion." A full ophthalmologica...

Aim: To describe optical coherence tomography (OCT) images of superior segmental optic hypoplasia (SSOH). Methods: Five patients (two men and three women, ages 10–45 years) presented with ophthalmoscopic features and visual field defects of SSOH. All affected eyes had good visual acuity and inferior altitudinal or inferonasal visual field loss. The mothers of three patients had type 1 diabetes ...

INTRODUCTION Peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness analysis is a subjective method of analysis of glaucomatous damage. As almost 50% of retinal ganglion cells are located in the macula, assessment of macular thickness can be an alternative method for diagnosis of glaucoma. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the changes in macular and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in controls, gla...

AIM To comprehensively evaluate the effects of dorzolamide on the choroidal and retinal circulation in patients with age related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS In this randomised, double masked, parallel study, 36 non-exudative AMD patients were randomised in a 2 to 1 fashion to placebo versus topical dorzolamide and underwent assessment of their choroidal and retinal circulation. Scanni...
