Abstract

Introduction: Idiopathic macular hole is an anatomic discontinuity of the neurosensory retina in the center of the macula or fovea resulted from tractional forces on the foveola at the vitreoretinal interface not associated with other causes. Diagnosis and management of this condition requires expertise, skills, and specialized examination to detect changes in the retina which is important for deciding the appropriate management. Case Report: We report a case of 66-year-old man with idiopathic macular hole (IMH) in the right eye with initial best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) 20/1200. Fundus examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT) confirmed the presence of large full thickness macular hole with mean linear diameter 673 µm and posterior hyaloid still attached to the optic nerve. The patient was managed with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) surgery using modified minimal internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling with superior ILM flap and SF6 gas tamponade. Two weeks after surgery OCT showed closure of the macular hole. BCVA at two and four weeks after surgery improved to 20/240 and 20/200 respectively. Discussion: PPV with ILM peeling is one of the standardized procedures in IMH surgery. Failure of the vitrectomy surgery to close the macular hole or late reopening of initially successfully closed holes may occur without removal of the ILM due to ILM role as a scaffold for cellular proliferation or attachment of contractile tissue that may cause persistent vitreomacular traction. Variations of ILM peeling such as inverted ILM peeling has been used to improve closure rate for large IMH and has showed favorable results both anatomically and functionally. Nowadays, to avoid or minimize the damage of retinal microstructure by ILM peeling, some surgeons introduced new techniques aiming to preserve the ILM for IMH. Minimal ILM peeling with superior ILM flap technique in this case was done to obtain MH closure with less microstructural retinal abnormalities and better visual outcomes. Conclusion The management of large IMH with PPV and modified minimal ILM peeling with superior ILM flap in this case showed good results in terms of anatomic and functional outcomes.

Abstract

Introduction: Dapsone has been widely used as a part of multidrug therapy for leprosy patients. Ocular side effects are rare. Ocular toxicity manifestations include retinal necrosis, optic atrophy, macular infarction, bilateral exudative retinal detachment, and choroidal detachment. We reported a rare case of dapsone-induced toxic maculopathy in a leprosy patient. Case Report: A 32-year-old male complained of blurred vision and a gray spot in central vision in the left eye (LE) for one month prior to admission. He had been treated with multidrug therapy (MDT) for leprosy for seven months. The MDT consists of dapsone, clofazimine, and rifampicin. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of the right eye (RE) and the LE were 6/6 and 6/12, respectively. A funduscopy of the LE showed decreased macular reflex. A color vision defect following the tritan axis was found in the LE. The Humphrey visual field (HVF) test of the LE revealed a central scotoma. Macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed intraretinal hyperreflectivity and subretinal fluid. Dapsone was then stopped in collaboration with a dermatologist. Two months after the discontinuation of Dapsone, the BCVA of the LE improved to 6/7.5, then 6/6 three months later. Color vision, macular OCT, and HVF tests revealed improvements. Multifocal ERG of both eyes (BE) also showed improvement in N1 and P1 wave amplitude in both eyes on 9-month follow-up after dapsone discontinuation. Discussion: Instead of direct drug toxicity, the mechanism of ocular side effects is thought to be ischemia caused by two distinct mechanisms. Macular ischemia is caused by acute, severe peripheral hypoxia and the physical effect of red cell fragmentation due to the hemolytic process. After discontinuation of dapsone, this case showed improvement in visual function and macular structure. Conclusion: Toxic maculopathy may be present in leprosy patients receiving dapsone treatment, although it is uncommon. Regular follow-up and evaluation of visual function and macular involvement are essential. Early detection of dapsone-induced toxic maculopathy and prompt discontinuation of dapsone may result in an improvement of visual functions.

Abstract

Introduction: To report the profile of patients with floaters as a subjective complain in Saiful Anwar Hospital from July 2012 until June 2013. Methods: an observasional descriptive study was conducted, collecting data on gender, age, subjective complain (floaters, flashes and subjective vision reduction), best corrected visual acuity and diagnose from patient’s medical record. Result: 169 patients (215 eyes) were included in this study. Female patients contributed a higher percentage than male with mean of age was 49 years old. The subjective complain was floaters (67%), floater with blurred vision (22%), floater with flashes (6%) and patients with floaters, flashes, and blurred vision was 5%. Myopia was the most common refraction problem. Diagnose recorded from this study were posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) (34%), no abnormalities (13%), PDR (10%), RRD (9%), peripheral retinal degeneration (14%) retinal break (6%), corpus vitreous degeneration (3%), vitreous haemorhage (3%), posterior uveitis (2%) and others (6%). Conclusion: The most common cause of floaters is PVD. Even it is usually a save condition but there are some condition with floater as a subjective complain which is threatening vision, so accurate eye examination from anterior to posterior segment were needed.

Abstract

Introduction: The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence and characteristics of retinal detachment patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Methods: Retrospective review of medical record from primary retinal detachment (RD) patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) between 2013 and 2017 at Outpatient Department of Ophthalmology, Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Result: : The number of RD patients with PVR at Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital in 2013-2017 was 80 patients (21%), consisting of 59 men and 21 women with mean of age was 47.5 ± 14.3 years. The characteristics of the subjects were phakic 72.5%, aphakic 1.25%, high myopia 23.75%, history of trauma 18.75% and affected to right eye 60%. Retinal characteristics were break conditions in the retina (located at superotemporal (34%), horseshoe tear (56%), and single break (60%)), macula off (90%), area of detachments were 4 quadrants (43,75%), PVR conditions were grade B PVR (45%), mean duration of RD was 156 days, mean length of surgery waiting list was 61.1 days. The majority of treatment types were vitrectomy (70,4%), majority of tamponade using silicone oil (59.3%), majority of pre-operative and post-operative visual acuity were less than 3 meters counting finger, pre-operative (91.25%) , post-operative 1 month (76%) and 6 months (52.5%), and the majority of post-operative retinal reattachment were 77.3%. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate the number of RD patients with PVR was lower than previous studies. Various results of patient characteristics can be used as guidelines for ophthalmologists in determining actions and explaining the prognosis of the disease. Further research with a larger sample size and prospective methods will be better able to provide better results. Keywords: retinal detachment, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, characteristic pvr

Abstract

Introduction: The increase in diabetics has an impact incidence of diabetic retinopathy and Diabetic Macular Edema (DME). DME due to changes in the blood retina barrier (BRB), causes fluid accumulation in the macula. This study aims to evaluate the functional outcome visual acuity and structure with optical coherence tomography (OCT) intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injection in DME with Clinically Significant Macular Edema (CSME). Methods: This study is a retrospective descriptive study. The study was conducted in the Department of Opthalmology, Bali Mandara Eye Hospital, Denpasar. Data were obtained from the medical records of all diabetic retinopathy patients with clinically significant macular edema who treated with IVB at Bali Mandara Eye Hospital in Denpasar January - December 2018. Result: Of the 52 subjects, improvement in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) occurred in 26 (50.0%) subjects at the first month evaluation, 21 (40.4%) subjects at the third month, and 10 (19.2%) subjects at the sixth month evaluation. OCT decreased in 44 (84.6%) subjects at the first month evaluation, 16 (30.8%) subjects at the third month, and 14 (26.9%) subjects at the sixth month evaluation. Conclusion: There are visual acuity improvement and central retinal thickness reduction at 6 months after IVB injection. These results strengthen IVB injection to be an alternative therapy in DME with CSME.

Abstract

Introduction: Amaurosis fugax is caused by an abrupt reduction of blood flow to the retina. Determining the etiology of amaurosis fugax should ensure proper management. Case Report: A 47-year-old female patient who had the first episode of amaurosis fugax in her right eye was referred to our hospital. The amaurosis fugax resolved spontaneously, however, we found a 3 mm long stenosis at her right ophthalmic artery during magnetic resonance angiography. She had clinical histories of untreated hypertension and dyslipidemia. Transient ischemic attack (TIA) was suspected and unfractionated heparin, aspirin, antihypertensive agent, and statin were given. Treatments were maintained, the symptoms had not recurred in the following 6 months after the event. Discussion: Stenosis of the ophthalmic artery is very rare. It occurs in approximately 2% of patient suffering from amaurosis fugax. In our case, stenosis of the right ophthalmic artery due to thromboembolism might cause retinal ischemia leading to a transient visual loss. Conclusion: This case suggests stenosis of ophthalmic artery as the cause of amaurosis fugax. Keywords: amaurosis fugax, ipsilateral, ophthalmic artery, stenosis

Abstract

Introduction:To analyze the Prevalence of advanced diabetic eye disease(ADED) among diabetic patients Methods:This was a prospective cross-sectional study in a tertiary care hospital. A total of 1650 patients with a history of type 2 diabetes who visited ophthalmology department were enrolled in study. History regarding socioeconomic status, literacy level, duration of diabetes, comorbidities, medications, HbA1c levels were analyzed. Visual acuity,Slit-lamp, fundus examination were done.Medical/surgical intervention was done to restore vision. Results: A total of 1650 patients with a history of type 2 diabetes were analyzed. Among them 327 patients had fundus changes of diabetic retinopathy, hence the prevalence of DR among diabetics was 19.81%. Out of 327 patients, 53 patients had advanced diabetic eye disease and the prevalence of ADED among Diabetics was 3.20%. The mean age of the patients was 50.91+/- 9.06years.There were 42 (79.24%)males and 11 (20.7%)females.24 (45.28%)patients had vision of 6/6 - 6/60, 28 (52.83%|) patients had vision 5/60-CFCF.15(28.30%) patients had PDR with vitreous hemorrhage.12 patients (22.64%) had PDR with subhyaloid hemorrhage,11 patients (20.75%) had PDR with FVP sparing macula,13 patients(24.52%) had PDR with FVP involving the macula,2 patients(3.77 %) had PDR with Neovascular glaucoma.34 patients (64.15%) underwent PRP,19 patients (35.84 %) needed surgical intervention. Conclusion: This study shows that the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy among diabetic patients was 19.81%. The prevalence of Advanced Diabetic Eye Disease among diabetic patients was 3.2%. Hence Effective implementation of primary, secondary and tertiary prevention strategies has the potential to significantly reduce blindness due to DR.

Abstract

Introduction: To determine if performing 360° laser retinopexy anterior to the equator during surgery is a viable option to prevent recurrent retinal detachment following a primary pars plana vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Methods: A consecutive case series of 142 patients with retinal detachment who underwent vitrectomy by a single surgeon in Mohammed VI university hospital Marrakech hospital between January 2020 and December 2021. A comparison was made between a group of consecutive patients who underwent 360° laser retinopexy and a control group of patients who did not receive the treatment (39). Patient demographic and clinical information was gathered from medical records. Both groups were analyzed and compared in terms of baseline characteristics and the risk of recurrent retinal detachment over time. Result: Prophylactic intraoperative 360° laser treatment was performed on 103 RRD cases (52 years) and compared to a control group of 39 RRD cases (56.8 years). The rate of the incidence of recurrent retinal detachment at six months after surgery was 12.6%( 13/103 eyes) in the 360° laser group and 28.2%(11/ 39 eyes) in the control group. Conclusion: Intraoperative 360° laser retinopexy performed after primary pars plana vitrectomy led to a substantial decrease in the rate of recurrent retinal detachment post-surgery.

Abstract

Introduction Retinal vein occlusion is the largest group of retinal blood vessels after diabetic retinopathy. Occlusion occurring in the retinal vein is divided into central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) occlusion and branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) occlusion. The Beijing Eye Study, reported a higher incidence of BRVO than CRVO, where 10-year incidents for BRVO were 1.6 per 100 subjects, and CRVO was only 0.3% 100 subjects.1 To report a case of Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion with vitreous hemorrhage identified during intraoperative vitrectomy Method: A 49-year-old woman with a history of 15 years of hypertension had right eye vision complaints, increasingly blurred since last 2 months. The right eye visual acuity 2/60 cannot be corrected and left eye 6/30 cannot be corrected. The posterior segment on right eye is difficult to assess. USG B-Scan right eye found vitreous echospike appearance of vitreous bleeding. We manage with vitrectomy and during intraoperative we identified bleeding and ghost vessel in superotemporal area. Bleeding in the superotemporal quadrant is done by photocoagulation laser action. Results: First day postoperative there was increased in visual acuity to 6/60 with a posterior segment that could be assessed, obtained tortous blood vessels, slight bleeding and ghost vessel in the superotemporal area with laser injury. Conclusion: In this case report, patients with BRVO with complications of vitreous hemorrhage performed vitrectomy with additional endolaser in the ischemic area. The result of this action of visual acuity improvement in patient.

Abstract

Introduction: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a hereditary disorder that diffusely involve photoreceptor and retinal pigment epithelial (RPE). It is characterized by progressive visual field loss and abnormal ERG. Unilateral RP is a rare condition that is usually sporadic. Clinical presentation and ancillary test results are similar to bilateral RP, with only one eye affected. In making the diagnosis of unilateral RP, clinicians must be able to rule out secondary causes, document a normal ERG in the unaffected eye, and follow-up the patient for at least 5 years to rule out bilateral but asymmetric disease. the aim of this case report is how to diagnose a rare case unilateral RP from clinical examination and ancillary tests. Methods: We report a case of a 33-year-old female with slowly progressive restriction of visual field of the left eye in the last one year before admission. Ophthalmological examination of the left eye revealed bone spicules spreading to peripheral fundus. Visual field examination revealed severely constricted visual field of the left eye. The multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) examination showed severely depressed ERG function with reduced foveal responses. The fellow eye was within normal limit. Results: Patient was diagnosed with unilateral RP and must be followed-up for at least five years to rule out bilateral yet asymmetric disease. Making diagnosis of unilateral RP become one of the challenging case. Clinicians must be able to rule out the secondary causes that also have unilateral pigmentary retinal degeneration. Conclusion: With a good clinical examination and some simple ancillary tests, we could correctly diagnose unilateral RP. However, in this case we still need five years follow up to rule out bilateral RP yet asymmetric disease.
