Expert Case Presentations on Common Medical Retinal Conditions
Retinal Cases & Brief Reports is a collection of typical patient cases that involve conditions such as CSCR, nAMD, PCME, and CRVO. Experienced retina specialists evaluate various common retina cases, discuss their management strategies and techniques, and share their insights.
The Medical Retina First Round features expert case presentations covering four key areas of medical retinal disease. Each case is presented by a world-renowned specialist, followed by a panel discussion with all speakers.
Four expert case presentations covering the spectrum of medical retinal disease, followed by a panel discussion.
nAMD is a long-life disease. Despite rapid and amazing response to Anti-VEGF, recurrence is inevitable. Vision can be preserved if the patient is properly managed (T&E vs PRN).
Prevention and treatment of PCME through careful clinical evaluation and interpretation of ancillary tests. Treatment with topical agents, periocular steroids, or PPV for persistent cases.
Retinal vein occlusions are an important cause of decreased vision. Diagnosis is clinical with imaging studies to assess severity and guide treatment with anti-VEGFs or steroids.
A comprehensive look at CSCR β check a good anamnesis and keep your mind open. Use all imaging modalities for a wide view of atypical presentations.

Key takeaways from each case presentation:
nAMD is a long-life disease. Despite rapid and amazing response to Anti-VEGF, recurrence is inevitable. Vision can be preserved if the patient is properly managed (T&E vs PRN).
Prevention and treatment of PCME can be done by careful clinical evaluation and interpretation of ancillary tests. Although treatment with topical agents is usually enough, periocular steroids can resolve the cystoid macular edema by monitoring IOP. However, persistent or tractional PCME mandates PPV.
Retinal vein occlusions are an important cause of decreased vision. The diagnosis is clinical; however, imaging studies should be performed to obtain more information about severity and guide treatment decisions. Macular edema treatment should ideally be guided by OCT. Ultra-wide field retinal images and fluorescein angiography add information about possible ischemia. Anti-VEGFs have proven to be more effective than steroids.
Check a good anamnesis and keep your mind open. Atypical cases confirm that we must have a wide view of our patients and use all available imaging modalities.
These case presentations are designed for professional education among ophthalmologists. The discussions represent expert opinions and clinical approaches and are intended for educational purposes only. All clinical decisions must be made by qualified specialists based on individual patient assessment and established treatment guidelines.
