Technologies for multimodal digital imaging of vitreoretinal diseases have improved the accuracy of diagnosis and the depth of the knowledge of the mechanisms of disease and their response to treatments. Optic coherence tomography (OCT) has become a mandatory tool for the management and for the follow-up of retinal pathologies. OCT technology evolved in the last two decades from time-domain to ...

the aim of this study was to determine the most suitable shaking frequency and amplitude for shake harvesting esfahan's edible fig (ficus carica cv. sabz). a hand held limb shaker with adjustable shaking frequency and amplitude was used for this study. a 3x3 factorial experiment with three levels of oscillating frequency (10, 12 and 14 hz) and three levels of shaking amplitude (20, 32.5 and 45 ...

Idiopathic Epiretinal membrane is a proliferation of contractile cells on the surface of the retina that typically occurs after posterior vitreous detachment. Though many questions have been raised on the causes of this condition, a greater debate has been on the treatment of this pathology. The literature suggest the potential benefit in peeling ILM, due to its inherent proliferative character...

Case Report A married female aged 51 noticed flickering spots in front of the right eye, succeeded by a shadow in the lower and outer field of vision.

MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective, observational, non-comparative clinical study that evaluated 617 consecutive myopes who underwent ICL implantation at the Department of Refractive Surgery, Yemen Magrabi Hospital, Sana'a, Yemen between July 2006 and May ...

pletely in the left eye. The NVI disappeared, leaving no trace on clinical or fluorescein angiography, and intraocular pressures remained lower than 22 mm Hg. At 5 months’ followup, both eyes remained stable without NVI or glaucoma. Case 2. A 7-month-old girl was initially seen with bilateral leukocoria from bilateral advanced retinoblastoma. Both eyes showed retinal detachment, subretinal seed...
