  • Amelanotic Melanoma

    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.

  • submacular perfluorocarbon liquid

    Sep 7 2022 by JEFFERSON R SOUSA, Tecg.º (Biomedical Systems Technology)

    A 63-year-old male patient underwent vitreoretinal surgery with the use of perfluorocarbon. From a technological point of view, extended-field retinography presents many points of focus variation due to the difficulty of establishing a diffuse focus, as it is a recent post-operative case. In OCT Fundus Enface, although it has a low resolution, it is extremely important for documenting the presence of perfluor. Best seen in structural OCT.

  • RPE Tear After Anti-VEGF Injection

    Mar 17 2021 by RAFAEL REIS PEREIRA, MD

    Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear is a rare devastating complication of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The believed mechanism lies in an adherence of the neovascularization to the undersurface of the RPE creating a contractile force that increases after VEGF therapy and causes the tear.
