Purpose@#To report a case of papillophlebitis treated with an intravitreal bevacizumab injection in an adolescent patient.Case summary: A 15-year-old female with no medical history presented with a 3-day history of blurred vision and a floating sensation. The initial visual acuity (VA) was 0.0 logarithm of minimal angle of resolution (logMAR) in the left eye. A fundus examination revealed a blurry disc margin, peripapillary hemorrhage, and venous engorgement. Optical coherence tomography indicated subretinal fluid (SRF) accumulation. Both color vision and pupillary reactions were normal in bilateral eyes. Blood tests revealed no significant abnormalities. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed mild focal papillitis, but the patient did not report eye movement pain or discomfort. The diagnosis was papillophlebitis; however, high-dose steroid treatment was not initiated due to the absence of a significant decrease in VA. A single injection of intravitreal bevacizumab was administered to address the SRF. At the 9-month follow-up, VA remained at 0.0 logMAR, and the retina demonstrated anatomical stabilization after complete absorption of the SRF without recurrence. @*Conclusions@#Papillophlebitis can manifest during adolescence. Treatment of a 15-year-old patient with intravitreal bevacizumab obviated the need for high-dose steroid therapy and produced favorable outcomes, including preservation of VA and anatomical stabilization of the retina.

Purpose@#To explore the subjective eye health status of Korean adolescents by the extent of Internet use in 2009-2010 and smartphone use in 2020. @*Methods@#We secondarily analyzed the results of the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Survey performed by the Korean Disease Control and Prevention Agency that enrolled Korean adolescents aged 12-18 years. Changes in internet use time from 2009 to 2019 and smartphone use in 2020 were examined. Questionnaires exploring subjective eye health were administered in 2009, 2010, and 2020. We performed complex logistic regression analysis. @*Results@#A total of 748,490 subjects were enrolled. Korean adolescents used the Internet for an average of 2.48 hours (h) on weekdays and 4.06 h on weekends in 2019, thus significantly more than the 2009 averages of 1.93 h on weekdays and 2.96 h on weekends (both p < 0.001). In 2009 and 2010, the average internet use time on weekends significantly and positively correlated with subjective eye problems (odds ratio = 1.161, p < 0.001). The average smartphone use time was 4.72 h on weekdays and 6.56 h on weekends in 2020. In that year, the average smartphone use time on weekends (odds ratio = 1.049, p < 0.001) and smartphone overdependence (odds ratio = 8.636, p < 0.001) significantly and positively correlated with the presence of subjective health problems. @*Conclusions@#Internet and smartphone use time on weekends affect subjective eye health.
