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.

A 5-year-old girl, born full-term with no history of systemic disease, presented with poor vision since early childhood and underwent fundus examination. Anterior segments of both eyes showed no significant abnormalities. Fundus examination revealed retinal folds extending from the optic disc to the temporal peripheral retina, with blood vessels coursing through the folds (A, B). Avascular zones were observed in the peripheral retina, and the ora serrata’s boundaries were clearly visible, displaying dentate processes and bays (C, D). Retinal pigmentation was evident. Genetic testing confirmed the final diagnosis of bilateral Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy (FEVR).

We present a case of a 20-year-old patient who underwent surgery for congenital cataract when he was born and 20 years after he developed a retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), a major complication of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), is an abnormal process whereby proliferative, contractile cellular membranes form in the vitreous and on both sides of the retina, resulting in tractional retinal detachment with fixed retinal folds. PVR arises in an estimated 5-10% of RRD cases, and therefore represents a major complication of retinal detachment. The best treatment of PVR is its prevention. Clinical factors associated with increased risk of PVR include: • Chronic RRD • 2 o more horseshoe retinal tears and RRD exposing three-disc diameters or more of RPE • RD associated with giant retinal • RD associated with choroidal detachment • Ocular Trauma • RRD associated with vitreous hemorrhage • Aphakia and RRD • Failure of previous surgery or multiple retinal surgeries • Aggressive retinitis, etc.

Female patient, 41 years old, with progressive low visual acuity, progressive history of autoimmune disease. In the multimodal retinal fundoscopic evaluation, important characteristics compatible with "Birdshot Retinopathy" were observed. Birdshot retinopathy, also known as birdshot chorioretinopathy or birdshot uveitis, is a rare, chronic inflammatory disorder that affects the retina and the choroid of the eye. It typically develops in adults between the ages of 30 and 60 years, and is more common in women than men. The name "birdshot" refers to the small, round, yellow-white spots that appear on the retina, which resemble the pattern of a shotgun blast. These spots are caused by inflammation in the eye, and can lead to vision loss if left untreated. Symptoms of birdshot retinopathy include blurred vision, floaters, loss of night vision, and difficulty adapting to changes in lighting. The condition can also cause inflammation in other parts of the eye, leading to redness, pain, and sensitivity to light. The exact cause of birdshot retinopathy is unknown, but it is believed to be an autoimmune disorder, in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the retina and choroid. Treatment typically involves the use of immunosuppressive medications, such as corticosteroids or biologic agents, to reduce inflammation and preserve vision. Close monitoring by an ophthalmologist is important, as the disease can progress even with.

A 69-year-old female, with a history of choroidal melanoma in her left eye with exudative detachment, underwent tumor laser ablation. She then developed a complex combined tractional and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with a giant retinal tear. The patient underwent surgical repair of her retinal detachment with pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil. In the post-op, the patient developed large retinal folds masking the optic nerve depicted in the OCT photograph.
