  • Angiographic Storm: Fluorescein Leakage in Retinal Vasculitis

    Nov 17 2025 by SHRADDHA RAJ SHRIVASTAVA

    This left eye montage fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) image of a 19 year old male with idiopathic retinal vasculitis, having skip vasculitic lesions predominantly involving retinal veins. There are areas of blocked fluorescence due to intraretinal hemorrhages, the involved veins have filling defects and occlusions, leading to formation of numerous collateral channels. The inflamed vessels also show perivascular fuzzy hyperfluorescent stain due to leakage of dye. We can also see multiple peripheral capillary non perfusion (CNP) areas, with a 'hot disc', suggestive of ongoing inflammation.

  • Fluorescein Angiography Papillophlebitis Salauno

    Sep 3 2025 by Pablo Angel Garcia Uribe

    In the arteriovenous phase, fluorescein angiography demonstrated venous engorgement and tortuosity, with relative incompetence of the venous walls leading to mild leakage. Optic disc staining with late leakage was also observed. There was no evidence of significant capillary non-perfusion, and only subtle perivenous leakage was noted. The foveal region remained spared.

  • The Retinal Tempest: Toxocara's Trail

    Aug 31 2025 by Giriraj Vibhute

    In this striking image, a central white granuloma spirals outward from the optic disc, surrounded by fibrous traction bands and scarring—the telltale markings of intraocular toxocara lesion. The retina is ravaged with proliferative vitreoretinal membranes and peripheral pigmentary changes, starkly illustrating the chronic inflammation and vision-threatening complications caused by Toxocara canis.

  • Persistent Hyperplastic Primary Vitreous Associated With Retrolental Fibrovascular Membrane

    Aug 8 2025 by Pablo Angel Garcia Uribe

    A 12-year-old Mexican male, asymptomatic, referred for evaluation after incidental finding of partial leukocoria on routine ophthalmologic examination. Slit-lamp evaluation revealed a fibrovascular retrolental membrane without evidence of retinal traction, associated with a fibrous stalk connecting to the optic disc. The stalk showed near-complete involution, consistent with a remnant of persistent fetal vasculature (posterior type).

  • Black Swan - Optic Disc Melanocytoma

    Aug 5 2025 by SHRADDHA ASHOK CHANDORKAR, DNB DO FVRS

    Just like the Black Swan which signifies an event that comes as a surprise, can have a major effect, and is often inappropriately rationalized after the fact with the benefit of hindsight, a 50 yr old presbyopic lady came to OPD with complains of diminution of vision - BCVA being 6/6 N6 in both eyes. Fundus examination revealed a pigmented nodule covering the optic disc .In most cases, fluorescein angiography of a melanocytoma of the optic disk demonstrates hypofluorescence throughout the angiogram. OCT disc showed elevated lesion, OCT macula normal and USG B scan with measurements were done to corroborate the posterior extension and to note increase in size if any on follow ups, perimetry was done to check for any field defects. All tests seemingly within normal limits - Patient was counselled and asked for 6 monthly follow up. Optic Disc Melanocytoma usually unilateral known to be a benign lesion that carries an excellent prognosis, the malignancy of this specific condition is rare 1-2%. The mean age at diagnosis of optic disk melanocytoma is 50 years with a median of 52 and range of 1–91 years. It is possible that melanocytoma is a congenital lesion but may not become clinically apparent until later in life, perhaps due to acquisition of pigment in a previously amelanotic lesion.

  • Large Subhyaloid Hemorrhage

    Jul 11 2025 by Jessilla Phou

    This is a fundus photograph depicting a large subhyaloid hemorrhage in the mid periphery of the left eye. The patient, a 53-year-old female, presented with a sudden onset of floaters, headache, and blurred vision. The image also demonstrates associated optic disc hemorrhage, vitreous hemorrhage, retinal hemorrhage, and venous tortuosity. Despite the extensive workup performed and the severity of the hemorrhage, no underlying cause was determined.

  • Pseudoduplication of the Optic Disc

    Jul 9 2025 by Hrishikesh Naik, MS

    A peripapillary colobomatous pseudo-duplication of the optic disc as seen in an asymptomatic 23 year old female with myopia referred for routine retinal periphery screening. Rest retinal exam was normal. Duplication of the optic disc can be classified as either true duplication or pseudoduplication, both of which are rare clinical conditions. Pseudodoubling of the optic disc is commonly caused by optic disc or peripapillary colobomas, characterized by a circumscribed, disc-like lesion with radiating vessels but only one normal optic nerve. A few cases have involved pathological myopia, moderate myopia, proliferative diabetic retinopathy and CHARGE syndrome. The lesion is often found inferior to the normal optic disc. The patient was advised regular follow ups.
