The levels of factors 8 and 9 were elevated on the blood test. The corrected visual acuities were 0.3 in both eyes. A complete limitation of abduction and esotropia were evident in the left eye. Both eyes exhibited optic disc swelling and hemorrhage and retinal nerve fiber layer swelling. Subretinal fluid was apparent in the right eye. Three weeks later, the optic disc swellings and hemorrhages had worsened and both eyes evidenced macular stars. After 10 months, the corrected visual acuities improved to 0.9 in both eyes.

The initial visual acuity (VA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and central subfield thickness (CST) showed significant correlations with the final VA, BCVA, and CST.Conclusions: In patients with RVO under the age of 50 years, the initial VA and CST can be used as indicators to determine whether treatment is necessary by reflecting the final VA and CST. The initial VA and CST can also be used to predict the visual prognosis.

Atrophic and tractional components were graded according to the ATN system at baseline and the last visit.Results: The study included 21 eyes in 21 patients. The mean age was 52.29 ± 14.6 years, the mean follow-up duration was 57.65 ± 18.8 months, and the mean number of injections was 2.9 ± 1.9. Recurrence occurred in seven eyes (33.3%). Five patients (23.8%) developed myopic CNV in the contralateral eye. The mean initial and final logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuities were 0.44 ± 0.30 and 0.33 ± 0.39, respectively.

Two years later, she underwent phacoemulsification with multifocal intraocular lens (Trifocal AT Lisa tri toric 839MP®, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Inc., Jena, Germany) insertion in both eyes at a local clinic. She felt very uncomfortable after the surgery, but the granular and lattice opacities due to GCD2 of her corneas remained stationary for 5 years. Her visual acuity decreased from preoperatively (preoperative: right 0.5, left 0.6; last visit: right 0.3, left 0.4). Her contrast sensitivity was also decreased and the total higher order aberration was increased (right 1.590 μm, left 1.194 μm), compared to normal range.Conclusions: Multifocal intraocular lens insertion in cataract surgery can lead to severe declines in contrast sensitivity and visual acuity and increased higher-order aberration in a GCD2 patient.
