ABSTRACT

Background In this study, we aimed to evaluate optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) parameters among Indian patients affected with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Methodology A cross-sectional study on Indian patients having unilateral or bilateral affection with CSCR was conducted at the Department of Ophthalmology, Guru Nanak Eye Centre, and Maulana Azad Medical College, New Delhi. A history of ocular symptoms such as a diminution of vision, metamorphopsia, decreased contrast sensitivity (CS), and defective color vision (CV) and their duration were obtained. A detailed ocular examination for best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), CV, and CS was done. Following this, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) were performed. OCT was done for central foveal thickness (CFT), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), neurosensory detachment (NSD), pigment epithelial detachment (PED), and choroidal neovascular membranes (CNVMs). The OCTA imaging was done to examine the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) size, perimeter and circularity, vessel density (VD), and features such as enlarged/distorted FAZ, dark areas, dark spots, abnormal vessels, and choriocapillaris island (CCI) in the retino-choroidal layers. We compared the OCTA features of affected eyes with those of fellow eyes. Results The study involved 52 eyes of 40 CSCR patients, including 32 (80%) males and eight (20%) females with a mean age of 39.3 ± 6.1 (24-49) years. Of the 40 patients, 12 (30%) had a bilateral involvement. The mean CFT was 300.3 ± 158.4 µ, and the SFCT was 258.5 ± 60.4 µ. The mean distance BCVA was the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) 0.58 ± 0.32. The OCTA showed features such as enlarged/distorted FAZ (36.53% eyes), dark areas (NSD/PED) (84.61% eyes), dark spots (PED) (5.76% eyes), abnormal vessels (dilated vessels/CNVM) (96.15% eyes), and CCI (17.30% eyes). The mean FAZ area, perimeter, and circularity were 0.40 ± 0.71 mm2, 41.8 ± 280.0 mm, and 0.48 ± 0.12, respectively. The VD in the superficial capillary plexus (SCP) was 25.4 ± 14.1, deep capillary plexus (DCP) 15.0 ± 11.5, outer retina (OR) 5.9 ± 6.8, outer retinal choriocapillaris (ORCC) 33.7 ± 16.9, choriocapillaris 29.7 ± 17.5, and choroid 29.9 ± 17.5. The fellow eyes showed a mean FAZ area, perimeter, and circularity of 0.34 ± 0.23 mm2, 76.8 ± 391.2 mm, and 0.47 ± 0.11, respectively, while VD of SCP was 25.9 ± 13.6, DCP 16.5 ± 11.7, OR 14.3 ± 14.9, ORCC 38.0 ± 16.5, choriocapillaris 36.3 ± 17.7, and choroid 35.5 ± 19.2. Conclusions The CSCR eyes had a thicker fovea and sub-foveal choroid (SFC). The FAZ area of affected eyes was larger, while the perimeter was smaller than that in the fellow eye. In the affected eye, the VD in all the retino-choroidal layers was lower, although it was significantly reduced in OR whole (p = 0.006) and foveal choroid (p = 0.022).

ABSTRACT

Luxation of the globe is a rare, vision-threatening event that can presently spontaneously or following trauma. A 35-year-old man presented with bilaterally luxated globe, postroad traffic accident. On imaging, bilateral LeFort fracture type 1, 2 and 3 with palatal split along with nasal bone and orbital floor fracture. Both condyles and left parasymphysis of mandible were fractured. There was no evidence of intracranial injury. There was pneumothorax on the right side for which intercostal drainage (ICD) tube was placed. On exploring, bilateral optic nerve avulsion was present. Both the globes were repositioned and a temporary tarsorrhaphy was placed for cosmetic rehabilitation. On follow-up visits after 6 months, both eyes were in their sockets with minimal exodeviation. It is important to reposition the globes, even with extensive periorbital fracture at the earliest. The longer the globe and orbital structures are prolapsed, the poorer are the structural and cosmetic prognosis owing to ocular ischaemia.
