Ultra- widefield pseudocolor image of an 18-year-old male with blunt ocular trauma in the right eye due to a firework injury. The patient presented with commotio retinae (sclopteria), an acute vitreous hemorrhage, choroidal rupture, and a subretinal hemorrhage. The referring physician performed surgery on the lateral rectus muscle which was macerated but not severed, and several orbital fibrous foreign bodies were removed from the posterior orbit. The globe was intact. There is no evidence of retinal tear in the region of sclopetaria; however, there is complete necrosis of the temporal peripheral choroid and retina. The vitreous hemorrhage was slowly clearing on his exam 6-9-2020. The patient is developing subretinal fibrosis. The physician is concerned about the choroidal rupture that is visible through the submacular hemorrhage. There is one rupture that appears to course directly under the fovea. The physician states that if this is the case, his vision most likely will be 20/200 or worse. His vision was hand motion in all fields except nasally, which he was unable to see hand motion at his visit on 6-9-2020.

Montaged infrared retinal imaging of a 37-year-old asymptomatic man with a grade II arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the nasal mid-periphery. The presentation of the AVM can be classified with three categories. Grade 1 AVMs are characterized by an abnormal capillary plexus between the major communicating vessels. Grade 2 AVMs are defined by the direct arteriovenous communication without the interposition of arterioles or capillaries. Grade 3 AVMs are characterized by widespread, large caliber anastomosing vessels that are associated with decreased visual acuity and intracranial AVMs. Because retinal AVMs are mostly asymptomatic and non-progressive, further testing may not be indicated unless there are concomitant neurological signs and symptoms or if there is a strong clinical suspicion of a grade 3 retinal AVM. Observation was recommended for the patient in this image. On his most recent follow-up at four months, the patient remained asymptomatic with a stable appearance of the lesion.

Non-ischemic CRVO (VA 20/30) with secondary CLRAO (nasal macular pallor) in a hypertensive 69yo female. Pathophysiologically, the cilioretinal artery occlusion occurs secondary to elevation in the hydrostatic pressure in the retinal venous system relative to the choroidal perfusion pressure (which supplies the cilioretinal artery).

42-year-old pregnant African American with TRD and peripheral ischemia secondary to Eales disease. She was assigned this diagnosis of exclusion after a thorough work up for other identifiable causes of peripheral ischemia (e.g. sickle cell, syphilis, sarcoid, clotting disorders, SLE, TB, IP, FEVR). We elected to temporize her with PRP and Ozurdex in lieu of anti-VEGF medication given her pregnant status. Note: the Ozurdex pellet is visible in the inferior aspect of this photo.

43-year-old white male who was injured while racing a side by side 4-wheel off-road vehicle (see Video: https://imagebank.asrs.org/file/53854/sxs-crash-during-a-race-causing-valsalva-retinopathy-od). He presented about three weeks after the injury. He was being seen by his local eye doctor who wanted an evaluation for the retinal heme and scotoma. His main complaint was a central/parcentral scotoma described as a greyish area in vision. Va 20/50 OD, nomotensive, no APD (by technician), anterior segment u/r; see picture for the fundus exam - of note there are superficial/preretinal heme, with layering of the heme superiorly, and small superficial heme at nasal edge of the optic disc; in the parafoveal region nasally there is some mottling of the RPE that may indicate an area of prior commotio retinae (also possible to have TON), which may account for his scotoma. Really bad accident (video), and amazingly, he had no LOC or injuries other than the right retina. Helmet and racing harness seat belt were used.
