Long-term sequelae of photic eye injury from a solar eclipse
We report the cases of two patients who experienced photic macular injury from their early childhood due to observing a solar eclipse without protection. The retinal lesions are mainly macular; these can be serious and irreversible. They are the consequence of photochemical, photomechanical and photothermal reactions. OCT is very useful for the diagnosis of these foveal lesions. The visual prognosis of solar retinopathy is generally favorable. However, some patients may develop permanent sequelae with a decrease in visual acuity. Management remains empirical and controversial. Thus, prevention and public education remain t...

Creation and evaluation of a triage survey for ophthalmology emergencies
CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that a self-administered survey could be useful as a triage tool for common ocular emergencies. This survey could be performed better if complete by the patients with the assistance of emergency staff. Potentially helpful for high flow structures such as university-based hospitals, this triage survey might also help in comprehensive clinics or emergency departments.PMID:37945430 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfo.2023.09.016 (Source: Journal Francais d Ophtalmologie)

The effect of climatic and seasonal factors on the microbial keratitis profile
CONCLUSION: The results of this study show that climatic and seasonal factors may affect the microbial profile of keratitis. Fungal keratitis appears to be a climatic disease. Understanding the regional profile of MK can aid clinicians in their disease management.PMID:37932171 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfo.2023.07.019 (Source: Journal Francais d Ophtalmologie)

Effect of bimatoprost sustained-release intracameral implant on intraocular pressure and medication burden in patients with prior glaucoma surgery
J Fr Ophtalmol. 2023 Nov 3:S0181-5512(23)00477-1. doi: 10.1016/j.jfo.2023.07.016. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present retrospective study evaluated intraocular pressure (IOP) and medication burden after bimatoprost sustained-release (bimatoprost SR, Durysta, Allergan) implantation in patients with glaucoma. A secondary objective was to examine an effect of bimatoprost SR in a subset of patients with prior minimally invasive and incisional glaucoma surgery. A retrospective chart review of 122 eyes that received bimatoprost SR by 6 glaucoma specialists at Wills Eye Hospital between March 2020 and September 2021 was per...

Evaluation of the retina, choroid and optic disc vascular structures in individuals with a history of COVID-19
CONCLUSION: This is the first study in the literature to evaluate the post-COVID-19 changes in the vascular structures of the eye compared to the pre-disease values. In this study, we found statistically significant changes in choriocapillaris blood flow, subfoveal chroidal thickness and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness after COVID-19 infection. Further research with a greater sample size is needed to explore the effect of COVID-19 on these parameters.PMID:37925322 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfo.2023.10.003 (Source: Journal Francais d Ophtalmologie)
