photophobia/edema

OBJECTIVE The study was designed to determine whether laser photocoagulation could damage macular visual function in treatment of diabetic macular edema. METHODS A prospective clinical trial was taken to determine the effects of argon green (514.5nm) laser photocoagulation on macular light

Purpose: To assess the effectiveness of intracameral phenylephrine-ketorolac during cataract surgery compared with postoperative topical steroids in reducing the incidence of postoperative clinical cystoid macular edema (CME) confirmed

A 15-year-old female child with history of bilateral poor vision since childhood presented with sudden onset pain, photophobia, and diminution of vision OD for 10 days. Visual acuity was hand motion OD and 1/60 OS. Slit lamp examination revealed microcornea OU with multiple intrastromal fluid clefts

OBJECTIVE To report a case of corneal hydrops with perforation in a patient with ectasia after undergoing laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS An observational study with clinical, optical coherence tomographic, and histopathologic findings. RESULTS A 41-year-old woman had an acute onset of

The authors conducted a masked randomized study of 15 patients to evaluate the effect of administration of topical indomethacin 1% suspension on complaints in chronic corneal edema. Patients who complained of photophobia, pain, itching, burning sensation, foreign body sensation and tearing, were

OBJECTIVE We report a case of laryngeal edema associated with the Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome. METHODS A 32-year-old African-American female presented with a 12-day prodrome, including headache, tinnitus and shortness of breath, which preceded sudden photophobia and bilateral visual loss.

OBJECTIVE To study the reduction in light sensitivity in areas where impaired retinal perfusion was established by fluorescein angiogram (FA) in eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) that recovered from retinal edema and hemorrhage. METHODS Retrospective observational case series. METHODS A

OBJECTIVE To evaluate alterations in central retinal sensitivity following intravitreal triamcinolone injection in patients with diffuse diabetic macular edema that persisted after laser treatment. METHODS Fourteen eyes of 14 patients that received 4 mg 0.1 cc intravitreal triamcinolone underwent

Purpose. To report the use of Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) in a patient with keratoglobus and chronic hydrops. Case Report. We describe a case of a 28-year-old man with bilateral keratoglobus and chronic hydrops in the right eye secondary to spontaneous Descemet membrane tear.

We conducted a masked randomized study of 50 patients to evaluate the effect of administration of topical indomethacin 1% suspension on symptoms in corneal scars, edema, infiltrates, and erosions. Patients with symptoms (photophobia, pain, itching, burning sensation, foreign-body sensation, and

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the aqueous humor bioavailability and clinical efficacy of bromfenac 0.09% vs nepafenac on the presence of cystoid macular edema (CME) after phacoemulsification. METHODS A Phase II, double-blind, masked, active-controlled, multicenter, clinical

OBJECTIVE to evaluate the effect of dexamethasone intravitreal implant on the functional state of the eye in macular edema associated with central retinal vein occlusion. METHODS The study included two groups of patients: group 1 (control group) - 8 patients (16 eyes) without ocular pathology and

BACKGROUND In patients with diabetic maculopathy, evaluation of visual acuity alone may not represent central retinal function sufficiently. Despite good visual acuity, patients may suffer from visual disturbances like waviness, relative scotoma, loss of fixation and decrease of contrast

As patients with previous radial keratotomy (RK) are still occasionally encountered, recognition of the anatomy of post-RK corneas and management of their complications remain relevant. High-definition anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is a very useful tool to assess these
