A young software professional, with a history of allergic eye disease in childhood, presented with frequent power change and astigmatism. On examination, keratoconus was suspected, and a corneal topographic scan confirmed the diagnosis. As the cornea in the left eye was significantly thinned, C3R was done. Special RGP contact lens was prescribed after surgery. Follow up corneal scans showed no progression and the patient could follow a normal lifestyle without frequently having to change glasses.
A middle-aged farmer, injured with paddy husk, presented to the hospital with severe eye pain, watering, red-eye and whiteness of cornea. We found a near-total corneal infection involving full thickness and microsporidia organism. A full thickness corneal transplant was done, followed by close monitoring and intense medication. Today, he has good vision with no infection and is on regular follow up.
A 40-year-old male was referred to our center from Nandyal town in Andhra Pradesh for further management. He gave a history of sudden decrease of vision following an injury to his right eye with a cricket ball. He was diagnosed to have “Blood in the eye”. On examination, he had vision of hand movements only and had vitreous hemorrhage (blood in the eyeball) as well as submacular hemorrhage (refers to blood underneath the macula which is the most sensitive central part of the retina). While blood in the vitreous cavity can be cleared relatively easily with vitrectomy surgery, clearing the blood beneath the macula is a challenge as it is relatively inaccessible and a sensitive area it would require injecting the drug directly into the submacular hemorrhage to dissolve the clot and so displace it away from the macula. These kinds of procedures are generally done for bleeding in cases of Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (Wet ARMD) but have not been described for cases of post-trauma etiology. After discussing the pro and cons surgery was offered to the patient. The patient underwent 25 G sutureless MIVS (Micro Incisional Vitrectomy Surgery) with subretinal injection of tPA drug (tissue plasminogen activator). Post surgery the blood clot was successfully dissolved and displaced away from the macula and the patient recovered a visual acuity of 6/36.
A 56-year-old lady from Gulbarga, Karnataka was referred to Neoretina eyecare institute for further management. She was diagnosed elsewhere to have Retina problem in her right eye. On examination, she had a best-corrected visual acuity of 6/60 and OCT scan showed distortion of foveal contour and splitting of intraretinal layers suggesting lamellar macular hole. As compared to the full-thickness macular hole, a lamellar macular hole is encountered less frequently and cumulative surgical experience of retinal surgeons worldwide for this condition is less. As the vision has been gradually deteriorating for this patient vitrectomy surgery was offered. 25 G Micro Incisional Vitrectomy Surgery (MIVS) was done by Dr. Raja Rami Reddy with ILM peeling and gas injection. After 6 weeks there was the restoration of normal foveal contour and visual acuity had improved by 4 lines to 6/18. Both the operating surgeon and the patient were extremely happy with the outcome for this not so frequently encountered disease.
As the process of ageing starts, the signs and symptoms of the body’s wear and tear become more visible and eyes are no exception. Age-related eye conditions and changes start to occur. Some people find it difficult to focus and have blurred vision. The not-so-serious refractive problems can be...
The light-sensitive layer of retinal cells converts light into electrical signals which are then sent to the brain where they are turned into the images we see. A brilliant network of tiny blood vessels constantly supplies blood to the retina. Hyperglycemia, a condition where glucose levels in the blood are high...
