  • Blunt Ocular Trauma Due to Firework Injury

    Jun 9 2020 by Brittany Rota

    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.

  • Chronical Submacular Hemorrhage in the Setting of Neovascular AMD

    Mar 23 2015 by Rita Couceiro, MD, MS

    An 80-year-old male, with a history of hypertension and high cholesterol, complained of acute and painless vision loss in his left eye (OS) in the previous 5 months. On observation best corrected visual acuity in OS was hand motion. A dense vitreous opacity in OS precluded fundus examination. Ocular ultrasound revealed vitreous hemorrhage and thickening of the macular area. The patient was submitted to pars plana vitrectomy, which disclosed a large submacular hemorrhage with chronical features and disciform scarring in the setting of neovascular AMD.
