What is the typical fundus appearance of a traumatic macular hole?
On examination the hole appears as a round red foveal lesion with or without a cuff of subretinal fluid. A full dilated examination with scleral depression is needed because associated injuries determine prognosis.
Traumatic Macular Hole: When to Watch and When to Operate
Where does a cilioretinal artery typically emerge when it is present?
Cilioretinal arteries typically emerge from the temporal border of the optic disc and course toward the macula. They are usually an incidental finding with no functional significance under normal circumstances.
Cilioretinal Arteries: A Normal Variant That Can Quietly Save Central Vision
What is the usual consequence of a canalicular laceration that is missed at the first repair?
A missed or incompletely repaired laceration heals as a scarred, nonfunctional channel and usually leaves that canaliculus permanently obstructed.
Canalicular Laceration Repair: Finding the Cut End Before It Scars Shut
Which device should be held in reserve for cataract surgery in retinitis pigmentosa?
In retinitis pigmentosa the zonules may be weak and the capsule tends to undergo phimosis, so the capsulorhexis should be generous with a capsular tension ring available.
Complicated Cataract: When Another Eye Disease Is the Reason the Lens Clouded
Uncorrected standard keratometry in a post-radial-keratotomy eye produces which refractive surprise after cataract surgery?
Standard keratometry tends to underestimate true corneal power in a post-RK eye, which without correction leaves the patient hyperopic after surgery.
Radial Keratotomy: A Retired Surgery That Still Complicates Cataract Care
Why do atrophic holes in lattice degeneration carry lower detachment risk than a flap tear?
Atrophic holes arise from gradual tissue thinning and breakdown, whereas a flap or horseshoe tear results from acute vitreous traction pulling the retina open.
Lattice Degeneration With Holes: When Atrophic Retina Comes With Ready-Made Breaks
After a definitive erosion procedure in map-dot-fingerprint dystrophy, what should patients be told?
Because the basement membrane abnormality is diffuse rather than confined to one site, these procedures treat the targeted area without curing the widespread dystrophic tendency.
Map-Dot-Fingerprint Dystrophy: The Hidden Cause of Recurrent Erosion
Which systemic therapy improved overall survival in metastatic uveal melanoma?
Tebentafusp improved overall survival compared with investigator's choice therapy in HLA-A*02:01-positive patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.
