ABSTRACT
Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycotic infection, caused by the dimorphic fungi Sporothrix schenckii. Ocular sporotrichosis has both intraocular and adnexal forms. We describe two cases of sporotrichosis involving the conjunctiva of two healthy individuals after inoculation by their pet cats, with complete resolution of lesions after antifungal treatment.
ABSTRACT
Serous retinal detachment is a rare complication of pregnancy. A 30-year-old primigravida with preeclampsia presented with bilateral blurring of vision and metamorphopsia for a one-week duration. She was referred by the Obstetrics and Gynecology department for visual assessment. Her best corrected visual acuity was 6/7.5 in both eyes. Fundus examination revealed bilateral serous retinal detachment involving maculae. She was treated conservatively and her blood pressure normalized after delivery. There was a partial resolution of subretinal fluid one-month post-delivery and a complete resolution of subretinal fluid three months later. Her final best corrected visual acuity was 6/6 and N5 in both eyes. The management of serous retinal detachment is conservative with a good visual outcome.
