Both right and left eyes have symmetrical ring of mottled hypo/hyper AF around the fovea and disc. The HyperAF areas correspond to RPE deposits on OCT as well as areas of blockage on FA, and drusenoid deposits seen on fundus photos. Disc drusen in right eye present as HyperAF spot 57 yo WF referred for AMD vs Pattern Dystrophy that was diagnosed 10 years ago. Reported some slow progressive vision loss in both eyes for distance and near. Denies nyctalopia or hemeralopia. Background medical history includes HTN, CVD, and DM. No family history of eye problems. Denied pentosan use. Anterior segment showed moderate cataracts (OD>OS). Posterior segment exam showed macular changes and mild NPDR. The macular appearance showed a symmetrical, paramacular ring of fleck-like drusenoid material with some faint focal areas of RPE hyperplasia. Fundus Photos, AF, OCT were performed as well as a gene test. Further questioning showed revealed that her mother and maternal grandmother had both diabetes mellitus and sensorineural hearing loss. The patient developed diabetes in her teens, and some high frequency hearing loss in her early twenties. She had not had a previous genetic test or diagnosis of MIDD. Gene testing is pending for the mitochondrial component. Invitae's retinal panel, which does not include mitochondrial disorders, only showed a variant of uncertain significance, HMCN1. I discussed this case with Dr. Freund, and it is similar to a the case report : Inoue M, Kiss S, Freund KB.

This is a fundus photo depicting ruptured Retinal Artery Macroaneurysm (RAM) in the left eye of a 63 years old female. RAM is an acquired saccular or fusiform dilatation of the retinal arterioles that usually occur within the first three orders of bifurcation. The Superotemporal artery is the most common location. RAM may be asymptomatic or cause a number of complications such as macular edema, serous macular detachment, and hemorrhages.

A 38-year-old man underwent vitrectomy in the left eye due to a giant tear in the upper retina. SF6 gas was used as endotamponade. During the post-surgical check-up, it was identified that the patient developed a full-thickness retinal fold due to retinal slippage during fluid-air exchange. As the fold was away from the macular area, it was decided to observe the patient. Three weeks after the surgery, his best-corrected visual acuity was 20/30.

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.

Fundus photograph of a 30-year-old male patient with blunt injury to the globe. Commotio retinae is retinal whitening/opacification that results from a blunt injury. The ocular findings will often resolve in a matter of days to weeks. Vision loss can result from commotio involving the posterior pole (historically referred to as Berlin’s edema). Clinical findings of commotio include the characteristic retinal whitening. Commotio may result in significant vision loss that can be transient. Healing can result in pigmentary changes and retinal thinning which may be associated with poor visual recovery if the area of involvement is macular.

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.

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.

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).
