Vitreous hemorrhage (VH) is the main complication of proliferative diabetic retinopathy and remains the primary indication for vitrectomy in diabetic patients. The objective of our study is to compare our medical and surgical management of VH with data from the literature and to report the functional results of our series. We studied a series of 284 cases collected over 2 years in two tertiary care centers. In our series, 90.1% of patients had type 2 diabetes, and 70% had glycosylated hemoglobin greater than 7.5%. On fundus examination, 35.2% presented with stage 1 VH, 42.6% with stage 2, 3.6% with stage 3 and 5.2% with stage 4. Ocular ultrasound performed when fundus exam was difficult diagnosed an associated tractional retinal detachment in 8.8% of patients. Medical treatment was sufficient in 77.8% of patients, while 22.2% of our patients underwent vitrectomy, argon laser endophotocoagulation and postoperative anti-VEGF injection. Peeling of tractional fibrovascular membranes and or associated epiretinal membranes was performed in 69.8% of cases. Iatrogenic tears were noted in 11.8% of patients. In this study, 31.5% of patients underwent intraocular gas tamponade, while 23.8% of cases underwent silicone oil tamponade. Postoperative visual acuity improved by at least 2 lines in 60% of our patients, and the VH recurred in 24.2% of cases after surgery.

The clinical evaluation of infectious keratitis takes place largely through biomicroscopic examination, which presents limitations in the evaluation of the depth of the infiltrate and the exact thickness of the cornea, whether edematous or thinned. In this study, we aim to quantify the human corneal inflammatory response in treated infectious keratitis by anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). Patients with infectious keratitis were recruited prospectively in the ophthalmology department of the military hospital of Rabat between November 2017 and May 2019. Over the study period, 32 patients were included. A standardized scanning protocol was used. The thickness of the infiltrate, when present, and corneal thickness in any area of thinning and any surrounding edematous areas were measured. The various thicknesses gradually decreased over the course of follow-up, providing objective evidence of therapeutic efficacy in the early stages. Improvement in corneal edema and thinning was faster in the early stage. AS-OCT scanning can be used along with slit lamp examination to quantify and objectively follow infectious keratitis.
