Background: Idiopathic epiretinal membrane (iERM) is a common eye disease, which can be treated by surgical removal of the fibrotic tissue. Morphological outcome is generally evaluated by optical coherence tomography (OCT). Here, we investigate the i...

Background and objectives: Ocular massage (OM) is used as a treatment option for acute retinal artery occlusion, under the assumption that it induces vessel dilatation and enhances perfusion. Since evidence of ocular perfusion alteration due to OM is...

Background: Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a common macular condition characterized by detachment of the neuroretina and is a frequent cause of central vision loss in adults. Among the various therapeutic strategies, subthreshold microseco...

Background: To identify different choroidal patterns in Stargardt disease (STGD) and to assess their clinical correlates. Methods: 100 STGD eyes (29 males; mean age 42.6 ± 16.5 years) and 100 control eyes (29 males; mean age 43.2 ± 8.5...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a yellow subthreshold laser (STL) for the treatment of chronic central serous chorioretinopathy delivered in a fovea-sparing pattern and to analyze the post-laser changes in the ch...

The objective of this study was to characterize the choroidal morphology and vasculature in pachychoroid diseases (PCD). A total of 49 eyes with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), 43 eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD)...

Purpose: To investigate the features of choroidal caverns in diverse retinal diseases with swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Methods: Subjects with normal eyes, retinitis pigmentosa (RP), wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD),...

Objectives: To evaluate the effects of subthreshold micropulse laser treatment (SMLT) on choroidal architecture in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and their correlations with functional outcomes. Methods: This retrospective study inclu...

Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to choroidal osteoma (CO) can cause profound visual loss, but detecting CNV and the tumor’s feeder vessels using traditional fluorescent angiography imaging is challenging. Newly developed TowardPi s...

(1) Background: Silicone oil (SO) can be used as an endotamponade during vitreoretinal surgery for retinal detachment. There is emerging evidence that SO filling of the vitreous cavity and its removal may impact macular perfusion. So far, studies hav...

Objectives: To investigate the association between the hole border morphology and choroidal structure in idiopathic macular hole (IMH) patients and its impact on visual outcomes. Methods: A retrospective case–control study of 34 IMH eyes and 34...

Background and Objectives: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) remains a leading cause of legal blindness. Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) agents are the first-line treatment for neovascular AMD (nAMD). The choroid plays a key role...

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a non-invasive tool for imaging and quantifying the retinal and choroidal perfusion state in vivo. This study aimed to evaluate the acute effects of isometric and dynamic exercise on retinal and chor...
