Branch retinal vein occlusion
67yoBranch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) is a common vascular disorder of the retina that results in vision loss due to the blockage of the retinal vein. In the acute phase often presents hemorrhages and retinal edema. Post anti-VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) treatment, imaging typically shows reduced edema and hemorrhage, indicating improved retinal health. Anti-VEGF therapy is pivotal in managing macular edema secondary to BRVO, enhancing visual outcomes.

Central Serous Chorioretinopathy
38yoIn Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSC), fundus autofluorescence (FAF) typically reveals areas of hyperautofluorescence due to the accumulation of subretinal fluid and changes in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Over time, areas of hypoautofluorescence may appear, indicating RPE atrophy. FAF is useful in tracking disease progression and assessing the health of […]

Ocular toxoplasmosis
40yoOcular toxoplasmosis scars typically appear as well-demarcated, white or yellowish lesions with surrounding areas of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) hyperplasia and atrophy. These scars often involve the retina and choroid, creating a distinctive “punched-out” appearance on fundus examination. Adjacent to the scar, inactive pigmented borders may be seen, reflecting previous […]

Giant retinal tear detachment
46A giant retinal tear is a full-thickness break in the retina, often exceeding 90 degrees of circumference, and frequently leads to retinal detachment. This condition requires urgent intervention, typically with vitrectomy and retinal reattachment surgery, to prevent further vision loss. Early detection and prompt surgical management are crucial for preserving […]

Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion
80yoIn branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO), fluorescein angiography (FA) is used to detect areas of retinal non-perfusion, indicating ischemia. Laser photocoagulation is often employed to treat these ischemic areas, preventing neovascularization and further complications. This targeted treatment reduces the risk of vision loss and stabilizes retinal function. #BRVO #FluoresceinAngiography #NonPerfusion […]

Retinitis pigmentosa
58yoRetinitis pigmentosa (RP) with a genetic test revealing the EYS c.5182del (p.Ser1728Valfs*21) mutation typically presents with the classical triad: bone spicule pigmentation, attenuated retinal vessels, and optic disc pallor. These characteristic findings are visible on fundus examination and are crucial for diagnosing and understanding the progression of RP. #RetinitisPigmentosa #EYSGene […]

Central Serous Chorioretinopathy
40yoIn Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSC), advanced imaging techniques are crucial for diagnosis and monitoring. En-face OCT imaging of the ellipsoid zone (EZ) provides detailed views of subretinal fluid and photoreceptor integrity, highlighting areas of subretinal fluid (SRF). Fluorescein Angiography (FA) identifies leakage points and areas of choroidal hyperpermeability, essential for […]

aneurysmal Type 1 MNV
55yoIn aneurysmal Type 1 macular neovascularization (MNV), Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) is essential for monitoring treatment response. Before anti-VEGF therapy, OCTA reveals abnormal vascular networks and aneurysmal changes. Post-treatment OCTA shows a reduction in neovascularization and aneurysmal structures, indicating the effectiveness of anti-VEGF therapy in controlling the disease and […]

Retinal tear associated with lattice degeneration
43yoPeripheral retinal tears associated with lattice degeneration are best detected using the blue channel in fundus imaging. The blue channel provides superior contrast and clarity compared to color fundus, green channel, and red channel images, making it easier to identify small tears and degenerative changes. This enhanced detection is crucial […]

CME in Retinitis pigmentosa
32yoIn retinitis pigmentosa (RP) with cystoid macular edema (CME), the use of split RGB channels in imaging can be particularly informative. The blue and green channels enhance the visibility of CME, highlighting the fluid-filled cystic spaces in the macula. These channels provide a clearer view of the extent and location […]

Cystoid macular edema
65yoCystoid macular edema (CME) after phacoemulsification can be effectively treated with topical steroids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). These treatments reduce inflammation and fluid accumulation in the macula, helping to restore visual acuity and prevent further complications. #CME #Phacoemulsification #TopicalSteroids #NSAIDs #RetinaImaging #retina #oftalmo #ophthalmology #oftalmologia #oftalmología #ophtalmologie #офтальмологія #офтальмология […]

Peripheral hemorrhagic exudative chorioretinopathy
71yoPeripheral hemorrhagic exudative chorioretinopathy (PHECR) can be effectively managed through early detection and laser photocoagulation, such as in this case. Early identification of small hemorrhages and exudation using fundus imaging and OCT ensures timely intervention. Laser photocoagulation targets the affected areas, preventing progression and preserving vision. #PHECR #EarlyDetection #LaserPhotocoagulation #RetinaImaging […]

Sickle cell retinopathy
42yoIn sickle cell retinopathy, black sunburst lesions are areas of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) hyperplasia and migration resulting from prior retinal hemorrhages. These lesions appear as dark, pigmented spots with spiculated edges, resembling a sunburst pattern. They are typically located in the mid-periphery of the retina and indicate chronic retinal […]
