Optical coherence tomography of macular atrophy associated with microcephaly and presumed intrauterine Zika virus infection

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 79 (6), 2016
ABSTRACT This case report describes the retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings in a microcephalic infant with macular atrophy presumably caused by intrauterine Zika virus infection. OCT demonstrated atrophy of the outer retinal layers and choriocapillaris, including the outer nuclear layer a...

Evaluation of inner segment/outer segment junctions in different types of epiretinal membranes

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 79 (5), 2016
ABSTRACT Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the relationships of inner/outer segment (IS/OS) junction disruption, macular thickness, and epiretinal membrane (ERM) grade with best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), as well as the relationship between IS/OS junction disruption and ERM grade. Meth...

Evaluation of posterior ocular changes using enhanced depth imaging-optical coherence tomography in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 79 (4), 2016
ABSTRACT Purpose: Evaluation of the nerve fiber thicknesses of the macula, choroid, and retina using the apnea-hypopnea index in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) without systemic components. Methods: Prospective, controlled study. The central macular, choroidal, and retinal nerv...

Combined branch retinal vein and artery occlusion in toxoplasmosis

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 79 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT A 22-year-old man complained of low visual acuity and pain in his left eye for five days. His ophthalmological examination revealed 2+ anterior chamber reaction and a white, poorly defined retinal lesion at the proximal portion of the inferotemporal vascular arcade. There were retinal hemorrhage...

Morphometric of the interface of the central retina in patients with retinal vein occlusion

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 75 (2), 2016
ABSTRACT Background: Systematization of characteristics and morphological changes in the retina, and understanding its role in occlusive diseases involving retinal vessels can contribute to research on the dynamic of the pathological process and to improved understanding of disease treatment. Objective...

Peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and choroidal thickness in cirrhosis patients

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 74 (6), 2015
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the effect of cirrhosis on peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and choroidal thickness with enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography. Methods: This cross sectional, single center study was undertaken at Bulent Ecevit University Ophthalmology department with th...
