Disorganization of the inner retinal layers in diabetic macular edema: systematic review

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 81 (), 2022
ABSTRACT The objective of this article was to review the disorganization of inner retinal layers as a biomarker in diabetic macular edema. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed®/MEDLINE®, Cochrane and Embase until August 2021. The keywords used were: "disorganization of inner retinal layers (DRIL...

Retinal vascular occlusions after nonocular surgeries

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 81 (), 2022
ABSTRACT Ophthalmologic complications of nonocular surgeries are rare events, but can lead to irreversible conditions of low visual acuity. They are often associated with spine, heart and neck surgery, however they can occur after procedures on other systems. The main local causes are ischemic optic neur...

Central retinal artery occlusion and central retinal vein occlusion in contralateral eye

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 80 (6), 2021
ABSTRACT The case of a 55-year-old male who presented central retinal vein occlusion with marked macular ischemia in left eye is reported. Despite the intervention with sustained-release dexamethasone polymer injection and other clinical measures, the visual acuity was severely reduced in left eye. After...

Association between disorganization of the retinal inner layers and capillary nonperfusion area in patients with retinal vein occlusion

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (6), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: To determine the correlation between the extent of disorganization of the retinal inner layers (a parameter of spectral domain optical coherence tomography) and optical coherence tomography angiography parameters in eyes with center-involved macular edema associated with retinal vein o...

Evaluation of the retinal vasculature of patients with branch retinal vein occlusion using optical coherence tomography angiography

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (6), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate vascular density in super­ficial and deep capillary plexuses of the retina, measured using optical coherence tomography angiography in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion. Affected eyes were compared with the contralateral eye of the same patient and both were comp...
