Corneal viscoelastic properties are not significantly influenced in the late postoperative period by 23-G TSV which is a minimal invasive vitreoretinal surgical technique.
The mean CRF and IOPg values of patients with VKC were lower than those of controls. According to the results of our study, one can conclude that corneal biomechanical property, CRF, could be different in VKC patients compared to normals.
We report a case of a 32-year-old female patient who presented with decreased vision on both eyes and headache. In fundus examination, both eyes had elevation of the optic disc and star shaped hard exudates in the macula. Magnetic resonance imaging was completely normal except the saccular dilatation of bilateral optic nerve sheath. The patient was treated with oral steroids following high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone. She displayed good anatomical and functional results during the follow-up. This case raises the possibility that optic nerve sheath enlargement, probably induced by an idiopathic inflammatory optic neuritis, may simulate dural ectasia of the optic nerve sheath.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
