Methods: Retrospective study of 63 eyes of 60 patients with cataract and DME who underwent phacoemulsification with IVB injection. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central macular thickness (CMT) over 3 months were studied. Univariate binary logistic regression was done to assess the risk factors for poor visual outcome (BCVA <6/60) at the 3 months. Results: The mean baseline BCVA in log Mar scale ± SD was 0.94 ± 0.58. The mean BCVA at 3 weeks after the surgery was 0.52 ±0.47, and at 3 months was 0.49±0.37. At 3 weeks, the mean CMT (N = 47) was 437.27±217.48 compared with the mean preoperative CMT of 380.87±176.38 in the same set (P = 0.01). The mean CMT at 3 months was 457.97 ± 206.94 (N=40) compared to preoperative mean CMT 435.45 ± 146.13 in the same set (p value 0.52). Fifteen eyes (23.8%) were given a second IVB at the 3-week follow-up. In these eyes, the mean preoperative and 3-month mean CMT were 413.73 and 377, respectively. The risk factors for poor visual outcome were, male gender [odds ratio (OR) 3.333], poor preoperative visual acuity (OR 8.42) and posterior capsular dehiscence (OR 5.1). Conclusions: Phacoemulsification with IVB injection improved the visual acuity at 3 weeks and 3 months but the mean CMT increased at 3 weeks and a decreased at 3 months only after the second IVB injection. Poor presenting visual acuity was an independent risk factor for poor visual outcome.","PeriodicalId":433701,"journal":{"name":"Nigerian Journal of Vitreoretinal Diseases","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131405391","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}

OCT provides a fast, noninvasive, and reproducible option for assessing retinal structure and gives high-resolution images that enable the identification of several biomarkers of retinal disease. Retinal biomarkers have been investigated extensively because of their usefulness in predicting the outcome and progression of disease. Recently, several biomarkers have been analyzed using artificial intelligence, which provides invaluable information on the natural history, prognosis, and risk of disease progression. Combining OCT/OCTA and artificial intelligence-based analytics will open doors to more personalized treatment and improved decision-making and, therefore, better outcomes for patients who suffer from retinal diseases. This review provides essential information on known retina biomarkers in leading retinal diseases.","PeriodicalId":433701,"journal":{"name":"Nigerian Journal of Vitreoretinal Diseases","volume":"141 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116276537","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}

The best corrected visual acuity was hand movement with accurate light projection in the right eye and 6/6 in the left eye. On ocular examination, a right proptosis with inferotemporal displacement was present. A right relative afferent pupillary defect was noted while the left anterior segment examination was normal. Binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy of the right eye revealed a cup-to-disc ratio of 0.6, temporal disc pallor, peripapillary atrophy, and clumps of pigmentation along the venous arcades with generalized chorioretinal atrophy involving the area of the fovea. The cup-to-disc ratio was 0.4 with mild temporal disc pallor and iridescent spots at the macula with similar features of bony spicule-like clumps in the right eye present along the superotemporal arcade in the left eye. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) scan revealed disorganization of the inner retinal layers with intraretinal reflective foci with back-shadowing and both retinal pigment epithelium and choroidal atrophy. The OCT of the left eye showed a few intraretinal reflective foci and retinal pigment epithelium and choroidal atrophy.

Failure to implant an IOL in the posterior chamber can result in a compromised posterior capsule because of rupture or weak zonular support. Iris claw lens (ICL) implantation posterior to the iris (retropupillary) allows for posterior chamber implantation in the absence of adequate capsular support. Objectives: To assess the immediate and short-term outcomes of retropulillary ICL implantation as well as the immediate and short-term complications in patients at the LASUTH. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of all patient case notes seen from January 2022 to November 2022 at the Ophthalmology department of LASUTH who met the inclusion criteria and had ICL implantation were collected and assessed. Patient’s demographic data, indication for ICL implantation, visual status preoperatively, postoperatively, and complications were analyzed. Results: A total of 20 eyes of 20 patients had the procedure in the study period. The age range was 12–70 and the longest follow-up period was 7 months with the shortest being 3 weeks. The mean preoperative visual acuity was 3/60, and the mean postoperative best-corrected distant visual acuity was 6/12. Immediate postoperative complications were uveitis (23%), raised IOP (5%), hypotony (10%), vitreous inflammation (13%), and cornea edema (13%). Conclusion: Retropupillary ICL implantation carries a good postoperative visual outcome; it is encouraged that this procedure is considered as an alternative to both anterior chamber IOL and scleral fixated IOL.","PeriodicalId":433701,"journal":{"name":"Nigerian Journal of Vitreoretinal Diseases","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125793883","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}
