A- and B-scan ultrasonography were performed and showed a large retinal mass extending into and filling almost the entire

The vitreous gel has certain physiological functions including providing a conduit for the metabolic requirements of the lens and excluding cells and large macromolecules from the
vitreous cavity in order to maintain transparency.
Diabetic retinopathy, for example, involves the growth of blood vessels not under the retina, as is the case in AMD, but on the surface of the retina and into the

It was attributed to the Hindu surgeon Susruta and described a procedure called couching, in which the cataractous lens is displaced with a sharp instrument so that it falls into the

Via the NOVADUR([TM])delivery system, OZURDEX([TM]), a biodegradable implant which enables the extended release and effect of dexamethasone, is placed in the
vitreous cavity in the back of the eye treating the macular edema associated with RVO, thereby improving a patient's visual acuity.
Rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD) are the most common and occur when fluid in the
vitreous cavity passes through tears or holes in the neurosensory retina and separates it from the underlying retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).
In this trial, the small ECT device was surgically-implanted into the
vitreous cavity through the pars plana in one eye per patient.
YAG capsulotomy is usually performed to release the fluid, which disperses into the
vitreous cavity and vision is restored.
Endophthalmitis is a serious intraocular inflammatory condition that results from infection of the
