Fluorescein angiography is the traditional tool for the detection of choroidal neovascularization of age-related macular degeneration. However, some limitations exist which impede its efficacy in the detection of subretinal neovascularization. Indocyanine green videoangiography is a recently
OBJECTIVE
To study the ocular hemodynamic effects of a 3-month oral treatment with pentoxifylline in patients with nonexudative age-related macular degeneration.
METHODS
Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel group study.
METHODS
Outpatient clinic of the Department of Ophthalmology,
BACKGROUND
This study was designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of intravenous infusion of CA4P in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
METHODS
Prospective, interventional, dose-escalation clinical trial. Eight patients with neovascular AMD refractory
UNASSIGNED
An oral treatment for neovascular age-related macular degeneration would be less burdensome than repeated intravitreous injections. X-82 is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor active against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived growth factor.

BACKGROUND
Taxanes are drugs used in various chemotherapeutical protocols to treat solid tumors. They have multiple systemic adverse effects, such as bone marrow suppression, alopecia, nausea, and vomiting, and may rarely cause ocular symptoms. In the past decade, a few reported cases have shown the
OBJECTIVE
To compare the incidence of adverse reactions following rapid versus slow fluorescein injection for fundus angiography.
METHODS
This randomized controlled trial was performed on 500 patients with retinal vascular disorders. Subjects with central serous retinopathy, age-related macular
Dyslipidaemia may be treated with a number of safe and effective pharmacological agents that target specific lipid disorders through a variety of mechanisms. The bile-acid sequestrants--cholestyramine and colestipol--primarily decrease LDL cholesterol by binding bile acids, thereby decreasing
The first case of Bacillus cereus endophthalmitis following an intravitreous injection of bevacizumab is described. A 77-year-old man presented to a retina specialist with an active choroidal neovascularization related to age-related macular degeneration for which he received intravitreous
BACKGROUND
Digoxin intoxication results in predominantly digestive, cardiac and neurological symptoms. This case is outstanding in that the intoxication occurred in a nonagenarian and induced severe, extensively documented visual symptoms as well as dysphagia and proprioceptive illusions. Moreover,
