  • Retinal Detachment Repair With Silicone Oil and Scleral Buckle, Fourteen Years Later, With Visual Acuity of 20/25

    Sep 12 2016 by Timothy S Fuller, MD

    65-year-old woman s/p scleral buckle 14 years ago. Two weeks later, the retina re-detached, and vitrectomy, laser, and silicone oil procedure was performed. Patient remains 20/25 with correction fourteen years later. The cornea is clear, there is no oil emulsification, and there is a stable, moderately inferiorly subluxated PCIOL (as it was prior to RD surgery). IOP is 17 on Cosopt BID.

  • CSCR Mushroom Cloud

    Feb 25 2015 by James J. Bedrick, MD

    Late transit FA of a large active subfoveal CSCR leak. Focus is on peri-foveal vessels to give sense of height of large serous RD of macula. This patient presented with a BCVA of 20/200 and fluorescein and historic evidence of prior episodes of leakage. After discussion of known treatment options including observation, he was initially treated with rifampin and had partial resolution to 20/70 BCVA but this was short-lived with reaccumulation of the large serous detachment within 3 months. He then received sub-threshold micro-pulse laser photocoagulation with an 810 nm diode laser which resulted 1 month later in complete drying of the serous detachment and BCVA of 20/25.

  • Foveoschisis secondary to high myopia

    Mar 13 2015 by Niloofar Piri, MD

    Infrared and HD-OCT of the right eye in a 55-year-old African American female with high myopia (more than -6.00 D), BCVA: 20/25 OU Cartwheel appearance of the fovea in the infrared imaging is visible. HD- OCT demonstartes schisis in different layers of the retina (both NFL and OPL; notice stretching of the Muller cells); VMT is also present . Outer retinal layers are preserved which explains the good vision . She had the same findings in OS.
