OBJECTIVE To study the macular sensitivity after half-dose verteporfin photodynamic therapy in patients with resolved central serous chorioretinopathy using the automated static perimeter. METHODS Prospective consecutive case study of 24 patients with resolved central serous chorioretinopathy was performed. The macular sensitivity was measured using a conventional automated static perimeter w...

OBJECTIVE To assess the relative stabilities of optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based retinal volume and central foveal thickness measurements in the setting of eccentric or inconsistent fixation. METHODS Ten healthy right eyes underwent multiple macular OCT centered at fixation. To model the effect of eccentric or inconsistent fixation, OCT was repeated with scan centers precisely shifted...

Objective: To compare the effect of intravitreal triamcinolone (IVT) alone with combined intravitreal triamcinolone (IVT) and intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) on central macular thickness (CMT) in patients of diabetic macular edema (DME). Study Design: Randomized control trial. Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Ophthalmology, Jun 2013 to Dec 2013. Material and Methods: Eighty...

PURPOSE The purposes of this study were to investigate the changes in macular parameters (thickness, volume) and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness (RNFLT) in different cases of amblyopia versus the normal fellow eyes using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and to estimate the relationship of OCT changes with various defined patients' parameters. DESIGN This is a prospe...

PURPOSE To determine normal macular thickness and its variation by age and gender in healthy eyes using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS In this cross-sectional analysis, two hundred and twenty eyes of 220 healthy subjects underwent raster scanning using Topcon SD-OCT system, at the Department of Ophthalmology, Dow University of Health Sciences and Civil Hospital...

PURPOSE To compare macular thickness of the normal fellow eye to that of the amblyopic eye using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in children with unilateral high myopia. Relationships between macular thickness and magnitude of myopic anisometropia, axial length, and visual acuity (VA) were investigated. METHODS Thirty-one children with a mean age of 9.56 years were recruited. Macular thick...

Occult macular dystrophy is an inherited macular dystrophy characterized by a progressive decline of bilateral visual acuity with normal fundus appearance, fluorescein angiogram and full-field electroretinogram. This case report presents a 20-year-old female patient with bilateral progressive decline of visual acuity for six years. Her visual acuity was 3-4/10 in both eyes. Anterior segment and...

Purpose The purpose of this study was to measure retinal vessel caliber and to examine early changes in macular thickness using optical coherence tomography (OCT). We evaluated to what extend vascular caliber and macular thickness differed between patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without diabetic retinopathy compared with healthy individuals. Methods 26 diabetic patients without diabeti...

PURPOSE To identify individual retinal layer thickness changes associated with visual acuity gain in diabetic macular edema treated with ranibizumab using layer segmentation on high-resolution optical coherence tomography scans. METHODS Retrospective observational case series. Thirty-three treatment-naive eyes with diabetic macular edema were imaged by spectral domain optical coherence tomogr...
