    Sep 19 2025 by Aditya S Kelkar, MS, FRCS, FASRS,FRCOphth

    Widefield fundus photograph of a 37 year old showing a large, dome-shaped, intraocular mass involving the temporal retina. The lesion appears elevated and lacks surface pigmentation. Overlying retinal vessels are displaced and draped across the tumor surface, with surrounding retinal elevation noted. The appearance is suggestive of amelanotic variant of choroidal melanoma.

  • Subhyaloid Hemorrhage

    Jul 14 2025 by SHRADDHA ASHOK CHANDORKAR, DNB DO FVRS

    19 year old female presented with sudden blurring of vision in her right eye since few hours after she attended a DJ party the previous night. On examination Vision was counting fingers close to face and Retina showed Subhyaloid hemorrhage with some RPE damage. YAG hyaloidotomy was performed and the subhyaloid hemorrhage was drained. Need for injections if RPE damage and development of CNV in future was explained. Patient was apprehensive as the vision was not restored immediately after the blood was drained. On subsequent follow ups slowly patient’s vision was restored to 6/6N6 after about a month.

  • Commotio Retinae

    Jun 10 2025 by CUI YUELING

    The patient presented 2 hours after sustaining a left eye injury caused by a stick. Visual acuity in the left eye was 0.2 without improvement upon correction, and intraocular pressure measured 15 mmHg. Examination of the anterior segment revealed ciliary conjunctival injection accompanied by patchy subconjunctival hemorrhage. The corneal surface remained smooth, and the anterior chamber was deep with hyphema characterized by blood-tinged aqueous humor predominantly settled inferiorly. The pupil was slightly irregular, approximately 3 mm in diameter, with a superotemporal notch; pupillary light reflex was intact. The lens appeared clear. Fundus examination showed well-defined optic disc margins with normal coloration and a cup-to-disc ratio of 0.2. Retinal arteries and veins were normally distributed with an artery-to-vein ratio of 2:3. At the posterior pole, the foveal reflex exhibited concentric ripple-like changes centered on the fovea, accompanied by localized pigment attenuation and reduced reflex intensity. Irregular reflectivity was noted in the superotemporal and inferotemporal nerve fiber layers.

    Top (B-mode): The longitudinal scan reveals a hyperechoic, flat, and well-demarcated macular lesion with posterior acoustic shadowing, pathognomonic for choroidal osteoma. Bottom (A-mode): Standardized tracing shows a tall initial spike (100% reflectivity) at the tumor surface with rapid decay to acoustic silence, confirming sound absorption by calcified tissue. This pattern remains unchanged at variable gain settings.

  • Advanced Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy

    Apr 9 2025 by Gustavo Uriel Fonseca Aguirre

    B-mode ultrasound of a patient with long-standing poorly controlled diabetes demonstrates characteristic findings of advanced proliferative diabetic retinopathy. The examination reveals moderate vitreous hemorrhage appearing as diffuse hyperechoic opacities throughout the vitreous cavity, along with a posterior hyaloid membrane densely infiltrated by hemorrhagic material, showing irregular thickening and increased reflectivity. A mild subhyaloid hemorrhage is visible as a subtle hyphema-like space anterior to the retinal surface. The study documents a total tractional retinal detachment, evidenced by rigid retinal folds with clear insertion points of vitreous strands, accompanied by a significant subretinal hemorrhage seen as a prominent hyperechoic collection beneath the elevated retina. These findings collectively illustrate the severe vitreoretinal interface pathology characteristic of end-stage diabetic eye disease, with predominant tractional components and distinct echographic stratification of hemorrhagic layers - from anterior vitreous involvement to deeper subretinal blood accumulation.

  • Comets in the Eye (Retinopathy of Prematurity)

    Apr 8 2025 by KANWALJEET HARJOT MADAN, M.S. (Ophthalmology); FAICO (Vitreous - Retina)

    This is the fundus picture of right eye (RE) of a 4 years female child presented with outward deviation of right eye. Her parents also complained of diminution of vision in both eyes. On examination, her best corrected vision in RE was hand movements close to face and was 20/80 in LE. Posterior segment exam revealed presence of macular scar in RE and presence of dry retinal fold with dragging of retinal vessels. LE fundus revealed presence of nasal drag of optic disc. Parents gave history of untreated ROP as an infant. Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is a Vaso proliferative disorder of Retina occurring in premature infants. Advances in neonatal care and ROP treatment has led these babies to live longer with this disease.
