OCT exams were taken preoperatively and 1 mo after surgery, until SMF disappeared. According to the preoperative macular status on OCT, patients were divided into two groups： macula-off RRD（Group A） and maculaon RRD（Group B）. In Group A, there were two subgroups： macula partly detached（Group A1） and macula totally detached（Group A2）. The main outcome measures were the presence of SMF on OCT 1 mo after surgery, and the preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuities（BCVA）, among the different groups and depending on the presence or absence of persistent SMF.RESULTS： A total of 139 eyes of 139 patients were included in the study. Persistent SMF at 1 mo after surgery was 15.8%（22/139）, all occurring in Group A（22/101）; Group B had no SMF at 1 mo after surgery（0/38, P=0.002）. The incidence of persistent SMF at 1 mo after surgery in Group A1 was 50%（14/28）, and in Group A2 was 11.0%（8/73, P〈0.001）. Significant differences were shown between the presence and absence of persistent SMF on foveolaoff RRD, the preoperative BCVA, the 1 mo postoperative BCVA, and the degree of the BCVA improvement from 1 mo postoperatively to the final follow-up（P〈0.05）. However, there were no significant differences in the final BCVA（P〉0.05）.CONCLUSION： Persistent SMF after PPV for retinal detachment is associated with preoperative macular status. Macula-uninvolving RRD shows no persistent SMF after PPV. Macular partly detached RRD has a higher incidence of SMF than macula totally detached RRD after PPV. The persistence of SMF may be responsible for the delayed visual recovery, whereas there展开更多

The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of optic disc and macular flow perfusion parameters in rhesus monkeys using OCT angiography. Methods： Eighteen healthy monkeys （18 eyes） were subjected to optic disc and macula flow index measurements via a high-speed and high-resolution spectral-domain OCT XR Avanti with a split-spectrum amplitude de-correlation angiography algorithm. Right eye was imaged 3 times during the first examination and once during each of the two following examinations. The intra-visit and inter-visit intraclass correlation coefficients （ICCs） were both determined. Results： The average flow indices of the four optic disc area layers were 0.171 ± 0.009 （optic nerve head）, 0.015 ± 0.004 （vitreous）, 0.052 ±0.009 （radial peripapillary capillary）, and 0.167 ± 0.011 （choroid）. Average flow indices of the four macula area layers were 0,044 ± 0.011 （superficial retina）, 0.036 ± 0.011 （deep retina）, 0.016 ± 0.009 （outer retina）, and 0.155 ± 0.013 （choroid）. Intra-visit （1CC value： 0.821-0.954） and inter-visit （ICC value： 0.844±0.899） repeatability were both high. Conclusions： The study is about the reproducibility of optic disc and macular perfusion parameters as measured by OCT angiography in healthy rhesus monkeys. Flow index measurement reproducibility is high for both the optic disc and macula of normal monkey eyes. OCT angiography might be a useful technique to assess changes when examining monkeys with experimental ocular diseases.展开更多

METHODS:Thirty six patients with a history of unilateral amblyopia and thirty two children who had emmetropia without amblyopia were included in this study. In this institutional study, 36 eyes of 36 patients with amblyopia (AE), 36 fellow eyes without amblyopia (FE), and 32 eyes of 32 normal subjects (NE) were included. RNFL, GCC and macular thickness measurements were performed with RS-3000 OCT Retina Scan (Nidek Inc CA. USA). RESULTS:The mean global thicknesses of the RNFL were 113.22 ±21.47, 111.57 ±18.25, 109.96 ±11.31μm in the AE, FE, and NE, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference for mean global RNFL thickness among the eyes (P =0.13). The mean thicknesses of the macula were 258.25±18.31, 258.75±19.54, 248.62±10.57μm in the AE, FE and NE, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference for thickness of macula among the eyes (P =0.06). The GCC was investigated into two parts:superior and inferior. The mean thicknesses of superior GCC were 102.57 ±13.32, 103.32 ±10.64, 100.52 ± 5.88μm in the AE, FE, and NE, respectively. The mean thicknesses of inferior GCC were 103.82 ±12.60, 107.82 ± 12.33, 105.86±10.79μm in the AE, FE and NE, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference for thickness of superior and inferior GCC between the eyes (P =0.63, P =0.46). ·CONCLUSION:The macular thicknesses of AE and FE were greater than the NE, although it was not statistically significant. Amblyopia does not seem to have a profound effect on the RNFL, macula and GCC.展开更多
