Retinopathy of prematurity, formerly known as a retrolental fibroplasia, is a leading cause of infantile blindness worldwide. Retinopathy of prematurity is caused by the failure of central retinal vessels to reach the retinal periphery, creating a nonperfused peripheral retina, resulting in retinal

The various forms of sickle cell disease share the common feature of an abnormal globin chain that, under certain conditions such as hypoxia, results in the sickling of red blood cells and obstruction of blood vessels. The ophthalmic manifestations of sickle cell disease are present in various

OBJECTIVE
The aim of this paper was to report 2 patients (3 eyes) with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) who showed marked sheathing of the retinal arterioles that was ultimately attributed to calcification following vitrectomy.
METHODS
Case 1 involved a 65-year-old female with PDR who

OBJECTIVE
Valsalva hemorrhagic retinopathy is characterized by retinal hemorrhages that develop after a Valsalva maneuver that consists of a forcible exhalation against a closed glottis, thereby creating a sudden increase in the intrathoracic or intraabdominal pressure. We present a patient who

BACKGROUND
Visual disturbances after high altitude exposure were first reported in 1969. Later, the term "High Altitude Retinal Hemorrhage-HARH" has been used for the ensuing retinal hemorrhages and vascular engorgement.
METHODS
A 31-year-old Caucasian male presented to our outpatient department 1

High altitude retinopathy (HAR) was first described in 1969 as engorgement of retinal veins with occasional papilloedema and vitreous hemorrhage. Since then various studies have attempted to define the incidence, etiology and significance of this phenomenon, usually with small numbers of subjects.

The causes of retinal hypoxia are many and varied. Under hypoxic conditions, a variety of soluble factors are secreted into the vitreous cavity including growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines. Cytokines, which usually serve as signals between neighboring cells, are involved in essentially every

BACKGROUND
Neovascularization (angiogenesis) is a multistep process, controlled by opposing regulatory factors, which plays a crucial role in several ocular diseases. It often results in vitreous hemorrhage, retinal detachment, neovascularization glaucoma and subsequent vision loss. Hypoxia is

OBJECTIVE
To report three cases of vision loss occurring at high altitude.
METHODS
Three patients aged 27 to 52 years presented with scotoma and/or visual acuity deficit upon their return from high altitude expeditions above 6000 m. Fundus examination revealed multiple posterior pole hemorrhages,
