Retinoblastoma (Rb) is the most common intraocular malignancy in children that accounts for approximately 4% of all pediatric malignancies. Since chemotherapy is a widely practiced treatment for Rb, there is a growing interest in developing new and effective drugs to overcome systemic and local side effects of chemotherapy to improve the quality of life and increase the chances of survival. This study sought to fabricate thiolated chitosan nanoparticles containing topotecan (TPH-TCs-NPs) with a view of enhancing drug loading and release control...

Inflammation can involve several ocular structures, including the sclera, retina, and uvea, and cause vascular changes in these tissues. Although retinal vasculitis is the most common finding associated with uveitis involving the posterior segment, other vascular abnormalities may be seen in the retina. These include capillary nonperfusion and ischemia, vascular occlusions, preretinal neovascularization, microaneurysms and macroaneurysms, and telangiectasia. Moreover, vasoproliferative tumors and subsequent coat-like response can develop secondary to uveitis...

PURPOSE: To measure optic nerve head (ONH) blood perfusion using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) at various stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR). METHODS: One hundred seventy six eyes of 94 patients included in this retrospective single-centre cross-sectional study. The subjects were studied in normal, no diabetic retinopathy (NDR), non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) and proliferative retinopathy (PDR) groups. The eyes were subjected to AngioDisc ONH imaging using OCTA for papillary (Disc) and peripapillary (RPC) vascular density (VD) evaluation...

PURPOSE: This study purposed to evaluate the efficacy of brachytherapy with the modality of ultrasonic hyperthermia in the presence of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) on an ocular retinoblastoma tumor in an animal model of the rabbit. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) were synthesized and confirmed by UV-vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering. Rabbit eyes were exposed to an ultrasonic continuous mode to reach 42 °C, and then turned into a pulse mode (40%) to maintain in the hyperthermia range (42-45 °C) for 30 min...

INTRODUCTION: Diabetic retinopathy is the most common cause of visual loss and blindness in the age group of 20 to 64 years. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of oral Losartan adjuvant therapy in combination with intravitreal injection of Bevacizumab in the treatment of diabetic macular edema. METHODS: In this randomized clinical trial, 61 eyes of 47 patients with normal blood pressure and diabetic macular edema and nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy were studied...

We report a case of breast cancer with clinically significant retinal toxicity induced by 7 years' Tamoxifen consumption in which patient's visual acuity and paraclinical findings remarkably improved after drug discontinuation. A 49-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer and Tamoxifen consumption was referred to our clinic for evaluation and treatment of gradual and progressive decrease visual acuity of both eyes (more prominent in right eye). Funduscopy showed bilateral macular pigmentary changes, with diffused tiny yellow crystals and reduced macular tessellation...

Purpose: To report a case of refractory ocular hypotony due to chronic Behcet's disease with good response to high-dose topical latanoprost. Case Report: We present a 26-year-old man with a known history of Behcet's disease who developed decreasing vision and severe ocular hypotony that was refractory to multiple treatment modalities including subtenon triamcinolone acetonide, ibopamine, pars plana vitrectomy, and silicone oil injection. We decided to try high-dose topical latanoprost for the management of ocular hypotony based on recent reports...

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the changes of macular vascular density in the superficial capillary (SCP) and the deep capillary plexus (DCP), foveal avascular area (FAZ), choroidal flow, and macular thickness after pan-retinal photocoagulation (PRP). METHODS: In this prospective interventional non-comparative case series, patients with very severe nonproliferative (NPDR) and early proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and no significant macular edema who were candidates for pan-retinal photocoagulation underwent measurement of corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), optical coherence tomography (OCT), Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) at the baseline, 1, and 6 months following completion of PRP treatment...

Purpose: To report a case of a grown Soemmering ring that manifested as an iris tumour 24 years after cataract surgery. Methods: A case report. Results: A 27-year-old white man was presented with a suspected iris tumour in his left eye. He had undergone lensectomy in both eyes without intraocular lens implantation 24 years ago. Last year, he was treated by topical anti-glaucoma medication for left eye intraocular pressure (IOP) rising. Six months later, his ophthalmologist found two separate iris bumps...

Purpose: To describe a case of primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL) that initially presented and managed as dry type age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods: A 69-year-old male was referred to us by decreased vision. Results: On funduscopy, a few small hard drusen at the posterior pole of the right eye and many large confluent drusen in the left eye were observed. Optical coherence tomography findings included the hyperreflective drusenoid materials in the subretinal pigment epithelium (sub- RPE) space which was similar to previous imaging records except for decreased area and height of pigment epithelial detachments and RPE and ellipsoid zone attenuation in some areas appeared...

Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) is an inflammatory eye disease of the outer retina, retinal pigmented epithelium, choroid presenting with photopsia, loss of vision, and temporal scotoma. The patient was a 31-year-old female with a history of vision loss since 11 days ago (left eye). At presentation, best-corrected Snellen visual acuity was 20/140 in the Snellen chart. We decided to treat her with short time corticosteroid therapy (0.75 mg/kg/day prednisolone which was tapered in 3 weeks) for any possible rapid recovery of vision...

IMPORTANCE: Early diagnosis of retinoblastoma, the most common intraocular cancer, can save both a child's life and vision. However, anecdotal evidence suggests that many children across the world are diagnosed late. To our knowledge, the clinical presentation of retinoblastoma has never been assessed on a global scale. OBJECTIVES: To report the retinoblastoma stage at diagnosis in patients across the world during a single year, to investigate associations between clinical variables and national income level, and to investigate risk factors for advanced disease at diagnosis...

PURPOSE: To evaluate multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) parameters in eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) and its correlation with vision and optical coherence tomography (OCT) features. METHODS: Fifty-four eyes of 27 subjects with DME due to nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy were evaluated. MfERG responses were measured in three concentric rings. Macular thickness was measured by OCT in each segment of the three concentric rings, and mfERG rings were superimposed on the macular thickness map...
