Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus. Screening for DR and subsequent early intervention can reduce vision loss. We sought to evaluate differences between patients who completed Teleretinal Diabetic Retinopathy Screening (TDRS) and those who did not at a safety-net institution.
A 27-year-old man with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes presented with sudden, painless visual loss. Fundus examination revealed a large premacular preretinal hemorrhage in the setting of proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
We report two cases of conjunctival cysts with different anatomical locations and clinical appearances. The first case involved a classic translucent inclusion cyst of the inferior bulbar conjunctiva. The second case presented as an opaque medial canthal cyst adjacent to the caruncle.
During high IOP term, vessel density diffusely reduces, particularly on the superficial layer, but doesn’t correspond to visual field defect. On the other hand, during the controlled IOP term, the loss of vessel area of ONH well corresponds to the VF defect.
The retina is sensitive to acute changes in systemic blood pressure and retinopathy can be the first manifestation of malignant hypertension. This case explores the use of retinal imaging at a primary care centre.
