Metastatic choroidal tumors are hematogenous intraocular metastases of malignant tumors in systemic organs; however, the details of choroidal circulation and morphological changes in the choroid are u...
A 66-year-old woman with a medical history of breast cancer 16 years ago was referred to our department struggling with blurred vision in her right eye. At the time of initial examination, her best-co...
Chemoradiotherapy resulted in regression of the metastatic choroidal tumor and disappearance of SRD, with a decrease in central choroidal blood flow and CCT. The choroidal blood flow on LSFG could ref...
To investigate binarized choroidal structural parameters, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, and retina changes duringattack-free periods in patients with migraine using enhanced depth imagin...
This observational, prospective study included 102 patients with migraine and 36 healthy controls. Central macular thickness (CMT), retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), ganglion cell layer (GCL), and cho...
Choroidal thickness at 1500 µm temporal of the fovea was found to be statistically significantly thinner in the MwA and MoA groups compared with the control group (p ≤ 0.01). There was a significant d...
We found that the choroidal thickness was significantly decreased in patients with migraine, especially in the MwA group. In the visual aura subgroup, the mean RNFL thickness was significantly decreas...
Posterior vortex vein pulsation on Heidelberg indocyanine green angiography (HRA-IA) video is reported to indicate the presence of congestion in these vessels. This study aimed to determine the relati...
Forty-three eyes of 43 patients who had not received previous treatment and were diagnosed with PCV using multimodal imaging were included and retrospectively investigated. On initial visit, presence ...
Posterior vortex vein pulsation was detected in 24/43 eyes (55%). There were 27 eyes in the P group (mean SFCT, 286 ± 48 μm) and 16 eyes in the NP group (mean SFCT, 143 ± 41 μm). Pulsation was detecte...
Congestion of the vortex vein is potentially associated with the pathogenesis of PCV with a thin choroid....
Choroidal neovascularizations are historically associated with exudative macular degeneration, nonetheless, they have been observed in nevus, melanoma, osteoma, and hemangioma involving the choroid an...
We report the case of a 72-year-old white woman with blurring of vision in both eyes of 15 days' duration. She had a history of treatment for bilateral tuberculosis choroiditis 20 years before. She wa...
The aim of this study was to compare bipolar disorder (BD) patients with age- and sex-matched healthy individuals in order to assess the choroidal structural alterations, retinal nerve fiber layer (RN...
For this research, 39 eyes of BD patients and 36 eyes of age-matched healthy volunteers were used. Five locations were used to assess the choroidal thickness (CT): subfoveal, 500 µm nasal and 1500 µm ...
BD patients had significantly decreased subfoveal, nasal, and temporal CTs than controls (for all three, p = 0.0001). The results of CMT and GCL were found to be thinner than controls. (for all p = 0....
The results of this investigation showed that the retina and choroid of patients with BD had considerable anatomical changes....
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the commonest inherited retinal dystrophy. It is characterized by progressive photoreceptor degeneration and cell death and ongoing neuronal and vascular impairment. In re...
Evaluation of the effects of the Valsalva maneuver on choroidal vascularity index, central choroid and the central macula....
Eighty-four eyes of 42 healthy volunteers were evaluated in this prospective study. The central macular layer was assesed using the retinal map mode of the spectral domain OCT (Optovue RTVue XR, Optov...
The mean age of volunteers was 35.4±7.2 years. Choroidal vascularity index, subfoveal choroidal thickness, central macular thickness and intraocular pressure measurements in the resting position were ...
The Valsalva maneuver may cause temporary changes in choroidal vascularity index, subfoveal choroidal thickness, central macular thickness and intraocular pressure. These measurements may be misinterp...
Obesity is known to be a significant risk factor for many ocular diseases. In order to understand the mechanism of obesity-related ocular diseases, we examined the lamina cribrosa morphology, peripapi...
This comparative cross-sectional study included the right eyes of 72 obese women and 63 healthy women classified based on body mass index (BMI). Each participant underwent a thorough ophthalmological ...
The mean age and BMI of the obese group were 32.36±7.38 years and 35.11±4.39 kg/m², while those of the control group were 31.64±7.78 years and 20.88±1.72 kg/m² (p = 0.658, and p<0.001, respectively). ...
We discovered thinning in the PPCT, which indicates microvascular abnormalities in the optic disc head. Microvascular alteration in the peripapillary region may be a potential initial event in the pat...
Posterior scleritis is an inflammatory reaction of the sclera that occurs posterior to the ora serrata. The aim of this study was to present a case of posterior scleritis and to analyze choroidal circ...
A 64-year-old man presented to our department because of hyperemia of the left eye for one week, diplopia, ocular pain, and distorted vision when looking leftward. At an initial examination, his best-...
Posterior scleritis complicated with choroiditis was suggested to show different choroidal circulatory dynamics from those in other choroidal inflammations....
