RESUMEN

PURPOSE: This study is to investigate the relationship between long-term changes in the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and visual function of eyes with macular hole (MH) and compare the relationship between the FAZ of MH eyes and fellow eyes. METHODS: This study included 31 patients with unilateral MH who underwent vitrectomy and their fellow eyes. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and metamorphopsia were measured preoperatively and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. We evaluated retinal parameters using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the superficial FAZ using OCT angiography. The FAZ ratio was defined as follows: (preoperative FAZ area of the MH eye)/(FAZ area of the fellow eye). RESULTS: The preoperative FAZ area of MH eyes was 0.42 ± 0.08 mm2, which decreased to 0.24 ± 0.07 mm2 1 month postoperatively (p < 0.001) and slightly increased to 0.25 ± 0.06 mm2 12 months postoperatively (p = 1.000). The FAZ area did not differ significantly from that of fellow eyes (0.39 ± 0.06 mm2, p = 0.281). The FAZ area of MH eyes was not associated with visual function at any time point. The FAZ ratio showed a correlation with the preoperative, 6-month, and 12-month BCVA (r = 0.604, p < 0.001; r = 0.510, p = 0.003; and r = 0.475, p = 0.007, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: A larger FAZ in the MH eye than that in the fellow eye is associated with poorer long-term visual acuity. The preoperative comparison of the FAZ of the MH eye with that of the fellow eye may be a biomarker for predicting long-term visual acuity.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To evaluate the postoperative visual function using a preoperative epiretinal membrane (ERM) classification based on the status of the inner layer structure. METHODS: We assessed 62 eyes, one from each patient undergoing vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling for unilateral ERM. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) the presence of idiopathic ERM based on optical coherence tomography and a healthy contralateral eye, (2) successful surgery after 25- or 27-gauge transconjunctival 3-port pars plana vitrectomy with ILM peeling, and (3) a minimum follow-up period of 12 months. We included patients with preoperative ERM morphology with no disruption of the inner retinal layer in group A (37 eyes) and those with disruption in group B (25 eyes) and compared the visual acuity, central visual-field sensitivity (CVFS) measured using the Humphrey field analyzer 10-2 program, and detection rate of micro-scotoma (< 10 dB) at baseline and 12 months postoperatively between the groups. RESULTS: Visual acuity at 12 months showed greater improvement in group A than in group B (P = .03). There was no significant difference in CVFS at baseline; however, that of the nasal area was substantially lower after surgery in group B than in group A (P = .02). The 12-month postoperative detection rate of micro-scotoma was significantly higher in group B than in group A (P = .002). CONCLUSION: ERM that has preoperatively disrupted the inner layer poses the risks of CVFS reduction and micro-scotoma formation after vitrectomy. Evaluating the inner layer could be an important prognostic factor in determining retinal function in ERM.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To determine the efficacy of the combination therapy of intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) and 577-nm yellow laser subthreshold micropulse laser photocoagulation (SMLP) for macular edema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion cystoid macular edema. METHODS: Retrospective, consecutive, case-control study. Forty-six eyes of 46 patients with treatment-naive branch retinal vein occlusion cystoid macular edema were enrolled. The IVR + SMLP group consisted of 22 patients who had undergone both SMLP and IVR. Intravitreal ranibizumab group consisted of 24 patients who had undergone IVR monotherapy. Intravitreal ranibizumab therapy was one initial injection and on a pro re nata in both groups, and SMLP was performed at 1 month after IVR in the IVR + SMLP group. Preoperatively and monthly, best-corrected visual acuity and central retinal thickness were evaluated using swept source optical coherence tomography. RESULTS: Best-corrected visual acuity and central retinal thickness significantly improved at 6 months in IVR + SMLP and IVR groups. Best-corrected visual acuity and central retinal thickness were not significantly different between the two groups at any time points. The number of IVR injections during initial 6 months in IVR group (2.3 ± 0.9) was significantly greater (P = 0.034) than that in IVR + SMLP group (1.9 ± 0.8). CONCLUSION: The combination therapy of IVR and SMLP can treat branch retinal vein occlusion cystoid macular edema effectively, by decreasing the frequency of IVR injections while maintaining good visual acuity.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To evaluate the surgical outcomes of intrascleral intraocular lens (IOL) fixation using ab interno trabeculotomy (LOT) in patients with exfoliation glaucoma with lens subluxation. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. METHODS: Twenty eyes of 18 patients with exfoliation glaucoma and lens or IOL subluxations were included. Three success criteria were based on postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) (A, ≤15 mmHg; B, ≤18 mmHg; C, ≤21 mmHg). The IOP, number of glaucoma medications, and visual acuity were compared before and after surgery. Success probability was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Cox proportional hazards' regression models were used to examine prognostic factors for surgical failure. RESULTS: The mean follow-up period was 23.4 ± 7.8 months. The mean IOP significantly decreased from 23.2 ± 6.8 mmHg preoperatively to 14.0 ± 4.4 mmHg at 1 year postoperative (P<0.001). Postoperative hyphema and vitreous hemorrhage were observed in seven and 15 eyes, respectively, and washout in the anterior chamber or vitreous cavity was performed in four eyes. Postoperative IOP spikes and hypotony were observed in four eyes each. Glaucoma reoperation was performed in two eyes. The success rates at 12 months were 65%, 85%, and 90% using criteria A, B, and C, respectively. The IOP at 1 month after surgery was a significant prognostic factor for surgical failure according to criterion A (hazard ratio: 1.08; P=0.034). CONCLUSION: Intrascleral IOL fixation combined with microhook LOT is a promising option in cases of exfoliation glaucoma with subluxated lens/IOL; however, the high rate of postoperative hyphema and vitreous hemorrhage should be noted.

RESUMEN

Purpose: To describe a case of bilateral diffuse uveal melanocytic proliferation (BDUMP) with secondary angle closure caused by ciliary body thickening accompanied by intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation after mydriasis. Observations: A 55-year-old woman with a history of ovarian cancer had blurred vision in both eyes. Fundus examination revealed multiple patchy lesions in both eyes and a nevus-like elevated lesion in the right eye. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) demonstrated angle closure resulting from ciliary body thickening. After mydriasis, the IOP was elevated in both eyes. Instillation of a miotic drug successfully reversed the IOP to normal levels. Conclusions and Importance: BDUMP caused secondary angle closure in both eyes, presumably due to thickening of the entire ciliary body. AS-OCT and UBM were advantageous for analyzing the morphology of the anterior eye segment in BDUMP. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of angle closure during the management of patients with BDUMP.

RESUMEN

We non-invasively evaluated macular non-perfused areas (m-NPAs) of branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) using optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography and the Humphrey visual field analyser 10-2 programme (HFA 10-2). We enrolled 30 patients (30 eyes) with macular oedema secondary to BRVO. OCT angiography was used to photograph the macula at 6 × 6-mm; sizes of m-NPAs in the superficial capillary plexus (SCP) and deep capillary plexus (DCP) were measured in four areas. For HFA 10-2, we divided the actual measurement threshold of 68 points into four areas and calculated the mean central visual field sensitivity (CVFS). The correlation between the mean m-NPA and mean CVFS (dB) in each area was examined. There was a strong correlation between the m-NPA of each region detected in SCP and DCP, and the mean CVFS of each corresponding area (SCP: r = - 0.83, r = - 0.64, r = - 0.73, and r = - 0.79; DCP: r = - 0.82, r = - 0.71, r = - 0.71, and r = - 0.70), p values were < 0.001 for all. m-NPAs were associated with decreased visual field sensitivity in BRVO. Non-invasive m-NPA evaluation was possible using OCT angiography and HFA 10-2.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between the preoperative morphology of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and postoperative visual function in patients with idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM). METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This retrospective study enrolled 36 patients who underwent a unilateral internal limiting membrane peeling with vitrectomy for idiopathic ERM. We measured the area of superficial FAZ in the eyes with ERM and in the contralateral control eyes preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively using optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography. The ERM stage was measured using swept-source OCT. We evaluated the FAZ area ratio (preoperative FAZ of the ERM eye/FAZ of the control eye) to indicate the degree of FAZ contraction in the ERM eyes compared with the control eyes. The correlations between the FAZ area ratio and postoperative visual function and changes in macular morphology were assessed. RESULTS: Preoperative mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) significantly improved from the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution 0.20±0.24 to 0.01±0.13 at 6 months postoperatively (p<0.01). The mean area of the FAZ increased significantly from 0.06±0.07 mm2 preoperatively to 0.09±0.07 mm2 after vitrectomy (p<0.01). FAZ area ratio showed significant negative correlations with changes in BCVA (r=-0.44, p<0.01) and the ERM stages (r=-0.56, p<0.01). CONCLUSION: The FAZ is reduced as ERM progresses and enlarges after vitrectomy. The FAZ area ratio based on preoperative FAZ may predict postoperative visual acuity.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship between retinal microstructure and central visual field sensitivity (CVFS) after vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling for epiretinal membrane (ERM) using swept-source (SS) OCT and Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA) (Zeiss, Dublin, CA) 10-2 program. DESIGN: Retrospective, interventional case series. PARTICIPANTS: Forty-five eyes in 45 patients with unilateral ERM who were treated with vitrectomy with ILM peeling using indocyanine green (ICG) or triamcinolone acetonide (TA) staining. METHODS: We evaluated retinal microstructure (full thickness of the retina, thickness of the retinal ganglion cell complex [GCC], and thickness of the outer retinal layer) with SS-OCT and CVFS using HFA 10-2 before and 3 and 12 months after vitrectomy with ILM peeling. Data were analyzed using a standard Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) grid, with thresholds measured at 68 points corresponding to ETDRS grid locations using HFA 10-2. Retinal microstructure and CVFS in normal contralateral eyes were also measured and used as controls. We also compared the ICG-stained group (27 eyes), TA-stained group (18 eyes), and control group as subgroup analysis on ILM peeling staining dyes. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in retinal microstructure and CVFS before and 3 and 12 months after vitrectomy, and the correlation between retinal microstructure and mean CVFS postoperatively. RESULTS: Inner and outer temporal GCC thickness after vitrectomy significantly decreased compared with control eyes (P = 0.019 and P = 0.002, respectively). Mean CVFS in ERM eyes was significantly lower than control eyes at baseline (P < 0.001). Although change in overall CVFS was not significantly different 3 and 12 months postvitrectomy (P = 0.394 and P = 0.337, respectively), outer nasal CVFS was significantly lower 3 months postvitrectomy (P = 0.039). The CVFS on the nasal region and temporal GCC thickness were significantly decreased only in the ICG staining group postoperatively. Postoperatively, mean CVFS significantly correlated with GCC thickness (P < 0.001, r = 0.557). CONCLUSIONS: In ERM eyes after vitrectomy with ILM peeling, CVFS was associated with GCC thickness. Combined SS-OCT and HFA 10-2 analysis using the ETDRS grid offers more detailed measurements that effectively evaluate postoperative retinal microstructure and function.

RESUMEN

Purpose. To evaluate the restoration of the ellipsoid zone (EZ) and its influence on visual prognosis 1 year after surgical macular hole (MH) closure. Method. Subjects were patients with stage 2, 3, or 4 idiopathic MH who underwent primary vitrectomy that resulted in successful hole closure. Nineteen eyes with both EZ disruption with foveal detachment and a continuous external limiting membrane on optical coherence tomography during the early postoperative period were included in this study. Result. EZ disruption was restored in 10 eyes (53%, Group A) and remained in 9 eyes (47%, Group B) at 1 year after surgery. In Group B, the diameter of the residual EZ disruption was 54.7 ± 33.1 µm. LogMAR visual acuity (VA) 1 year after surgery was significantly better than preoperative VA in each group (Group A: -0.007 ± 0.102; P < 0.001; Group B: 0.051 ± 0.148; P < 0.001), but there was no significant difference between the 2 groups (P = 0.332). There was no significant correlation between logMAR VA and EZ disruption diameter at 1 year after surgery. Conclusion. EZ was restored in 53% of eyes at 1 year after surgical closure of idiopathic MH. Mean residual EZ disruption diameter was 54.7 ± 33.1 µm. Neither resolved nor residual EZ disruption influenced postoperative VA.
