Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed from 2000 to 2022 of patients who had vitrectomy for symptomatic decreased VA from LMH, MPH, or ERMF performed by the same surgeon at a community hospital. Preoperative spectral domain (SD-OCT) was reviewed to classify patients using the consensus guidelines. Primary outcomes were the mean change in best-corrected VA at 3 months, 1 year, and the final postoperative examination. Results: Fifty-one patients were included, 30 with LMH, 14 with MPH, and 7 with ERMF. The VA was 20/63 at baseline, 20/62 ( P = .79) 3 months postoperatively, 20/40 ( P = .003) at 1 year, and 20/52 ( P = .10) at the final examination for LMH; 20/64, 20/50 ( P = .16), 20/40 ( P = .040), and 20/40 ( P = .02), respectively, for MPH; and 20/53, 20/50 ( P = .42), 20/30 ( P = .03), and 20/38 ( P = .04), respectively, for ERMF. Subgroup analysis showed that eyes with LMH without ellipsoid zone disruption on SD-OCT improved from 20/57 at baseline to 20/39 ( P = .01) at the final examination. Conclusions: There was no significant improvement in VA at the final postvitrectomy examination in eyes with LMH, while there was significant improvement in eyes with MPH and ERMF. This supports surgery in selected eyes with MPH and ERMF but possibly not in eyes with LMH, unless OCT shows no ellipsoid zone disruption.","PeriodicalId":17919,"journal":{"name":"Journal of VitreoRetinal Diseases","volume":"629 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139160584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Reimbursement reports were obtained from the US Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services from 2013 through 2020, which detail all Medicare Part B services. A vitreoretinal surgeon was defined as any provider with at least 10 charges of a Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System code related to vitrectomy or retinal detachment repair. Providers were grouped by sex, and the average total reimbursement rate and additional secondary statistics to quantify the reimbursement disparity were identified. Results: On average, female vitreoretinal surgeons were reimbursed 65% that of their male counterparts in 2020, $1.66 million to $2.56 million. The percentage of the average male vitreoretinal specialist’s total reimbursement that the average female vitreoretinal specialist received decreased 8.8% from 2013 to 2020, from 73.8% to 65.0%. Conclusions: The reimbursement that the average female vitreoretinal surgeon receives from Medicare is only two thirds that of the average male vitreoretinal surgeon. In addition, there was no identifiable improvement in this disparity over the study period. Further efforts must be taken to establish concerted efforts to improve the reimbursement disparity and to identify the systematic inequities that led to its presence in the first place.","PeriodicalId":17919,"journal":{"name":"Journal of VitreoRetinal Diseases","volume":"123 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139161134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: A retrospective study, performed over a 12-year period, comprised patients who had secondary SB procedures after failed primary PR. Clinical parameters (eg, best-corrected visual acuity [BCVA], lens status, macula status, details of RRD and subretinal fluid) were assessed at presentation, before additional procedures, and at follow-up (6 months, 1 year, and last visit). Statistical comparisons were made using Brown-Forsythe and Welch analysis of variance tests, with significance levels set at P < .05. Results: Fifty-four eyes with adequate follow-up were included. Forty-four (81.5%) of 54 eyes had successful retinal reattachment with secondary SB alone. The remaining eyes had subsequent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Patients presenting with macula-on RRD who had successful secondary SB had no statistically significant change in BCVA from baseline (mean final logMAR 0.23 ± 0.25 [Snellen 20/34]; P = .999). There was a statistically significant improvement in BCVA in patients presenting with macula-off RRD who had successful secondary SB (mean final logMAR 0.32 ± 0.36 [20/42]; P < .001 and mean change in logMAR −1.06 ± 0.85). Ten patients presenting with macula-off RRD who had failed secondary SB had a significant improvement in the final BCVA (mean final logMAR 0.22 ± 0.28 [20/33]; P = .044), despite the need for an additional PPV to achieve reattachment.

Methods: The American Society of Retina Specialists (ASRS) Research and Safety in Therapeutics (ReST) Committee as well as an expert panel performed a retrospective review of cases of retinal vasculitis reported to the ASRS. Clinical and imaging characteristics were reviewed for evidence of retinal vasculitis and analyzed. Results: Fourteen eyes of 13 patients were confirmed to have retinal vasculitis by review of imaging studies. All cases occurred after the first pegcetacoplan injection. Occlusive retinal vasculopathy was confirmed in 11 eyes (79%). Patients presented a median of 10.5 days (range, 8-23 days) after pegcetacoplan injection. All eyes had anterior chamber inflammation, and 12 eyes (86%) had vitritis. Vasculopathy involved retinal veins (100%) more than arteries (73%), and 12 eyes (86%) had retinal hemorrhages. The median visual acuity (VA) was 20/60 (range, 20/30-5/200) at baseline, 20/300 (range, 20/100-no light perception [NLP]) at vasculitis presentation, and 20/200 (range 20/70-NLP) at the last follow-up. Eight eyes (57%) had more than a 3-line decrease in VA, and 6 eyes (43%) had more than a 6-line decrease in VA from baseline to the final follow-up, including 2 eyes that were enucleated. Six eyes (43%) developed signs of anterior segment neovascularization. Conclusions: There is currently no known etiology for vasculitis in this series. Optimum treatment strategies remain unknown. Infectious etiologies should be considered, and corticosteroid treatments may hasten resolution of inflammatory findings.

Methods: The study was conducted in 2 parts. The first was a pilot retrospective chart review of 300 consecutive patients screened for DR by the teleophthalmology screening program. The baseline variables, DR capture rate and staging, and continuity of care for those diagnosed with DR were analyzed. The second was a web-based survey identifying the barriers encountered by 36 physicians and clinical staff as they participated in the teleophthalmology screening program. Results: Part 1: Of the patients evaluated, 57 (19.0%) were diagnosed with DR; 42 (73.7%) had mild nonproliferative DR (NPDR), 7 (12.3%) had moderate NPDR, none had severe NPDR, and 8 (14.0%) had PDR. Thirty-one patients (54.4%) with retinopathy diagnoses were referred for an in-person follow-up at the clinic while the rest continued monitoring via the program.

Twenty-two providers (71.0%) preferred initiating referrals for in-person annual examinations over teleophthalmology screening referrals. The most common barriers described were related to workflow interruption, time constraints, and staff shortages.

Methods: This study analyzed 5553 adults 40 years or older in the 2005–2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey who underwent retinal imaging. AMD was determined based on retinal images. Patient awareness of their AMD was assessed by a self-reported AMD diagnosis. Multivariable logistic regression models were constructed to examine the association of patient awareness of their AMD with sociodemographic characteristics and specific AMD lesion types on retinal imaging. Results: AMD was identified in 425 of the adults surveyed (6.5%) (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.5%-7.5%), including 87.7% (95% CI, 82.9%-92.5%) with early AMD and 12.3% (95% CI, 7.5%-17.1%) with late AMD. Among adults with either type of AMD on retinal imaging, 17.5% (95% CI, 13.1%-22.0%) were aware of their disease, which included 11.6% (95% CI, 8.4%-14.9%) with early AMD and 59.2% (95% CI, 43.1%-75.3%) with late AMD ( P < .0001).

Conclusions: Fewer than 1 in 5 adults with AMD were aware of their personal diagnosis, including fewer than 3 in 5 adults with late AMD. Older adults and those with worse vision were more likely to know they have AMD, whereas Hispanic adults and those who did not speak English at home were less likely.

Two years later the tumor was noted to be enlarging, and the patient elected for enucleation. Subsequent GEP showed a class 1B tumor. Conclusions: An aggressive and large recurrent uveal melanoma that had changed from a class 1A to a class 1B tumor on subsequent GEP testing has never been reported before to our knowledge. It may imply that a recurrent or aggressive tumor has more mutations over time that could lead to a higher risk for metastasis.
