Abstract:AIM: To evaluate the quality of life of recruits after refractive surgery.
METHODS: Population-based, cross-sectional study. Using the Quality of Life Impact of Refractive Correction(QIRC)questionnaire, the quality of life in 615 recruits underwent refractive surgery was evaluated. The overall score and each question score of QIRC were compared between subgroups of different strength of preoperative refractive error, postoperative interval, type of surgical procedure and postoperative recovery.
RESULTS: The mean overall QIRC score of recruits underwent refractive surgery was 49.15±7.89. Significant difference was found for strength of preoperative refractive error(F=4.16, P<0.05), with the low myopia group(50.67±7.59)had significantly better scores than those with high myopia(47.57±7.52, F=4.16, P<0.05). Recruits after a postoperative interval no more than 6mo(49.18±7.86)scored equally to those of more than 6mo(49.18±8.03). Recruits underwent surface ablation surgery scored lowest(46.68±6.09), but showed no significant difference when compared with all underwent refractive surgery(t=1.99, P>0.05). Scores of recruits underwent MK-LASIK, SBK, FS-LASIK, ReLEx flex or smile procedure showed no significant difference too. Recruits had adverse complaints postoperatively(45.85±6.66)scored lower when compared with all underwent refractive surgery(t=5.28, P<0.01).
CONCLUSION: The quality of life of recruits after refractive surgery was good except those with postoperative complications. Preoperative low myopia recruits had better quality of life than medium and high myopia ones.

Abstract:AIM: To validate Pentacam System and the Optical Quality Analysis System II(OQASII)serve as auxiliary tools to assess lens opacity and help select the optimal time for surgery.
METHODS: The patients with age-related cataract were recruited, patients who had any abnormality with cornea or fundus were excluded. Objective scatter index(OSI)and modulation transfer function(MTF)cut-off were acquired by the Optical Quality Analysis System II(OQASII)with dilated pupil after the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)was obtained. The pupillary regional density of anterior cortex, lens nucleus, posterior cortex was measured via a Pentacam Scheimpflug System(Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany). Correlation analysis was applied to determine the relationship between these parameters. Multiple linear regression relationships were analyzed between the regional lens densities and OSI, MTF, BCVA.
RESULTS:Sixty-nine patients(108 eyes)were studied. Both nuclear and cortical lens density were significantly correlated with the OSI, MTF cut-off and BCVA. The correlation between lens opacities(anterior cortex and nucleus)and OSI/MTF was stronger than that between lens opacities and BCVA. By analyzing multiple linear regressions, OSI had the largest relevance with all regional opacities while maximum density had larger relevance than average density in every parameter. Maximum nuclear density weighted most in both OSI and MTF equations, whereas average cortex density raised weight in MTF and BCVA equations.
CONCLUSION: Any local opacity in the lens, including anterior cortex, nucleus and posterior cortex, could impact both visual quality(VQ)and visual acuity(VA). Nuclear density had the most influence on OSI and MTF, followed by cortical opacity. OQAS II analyzer ought to be provided as an auxiliary pre-surgery tool for mixed cataract with cortical and nuclear opacities since OSI was discovered to be the most sensitive parameter to lens opacities.

Abstract:AIM: To compare long-term outcomes and recurrence rates of narrow versus wide inferior limbal conjunctival autograft transplants combined with Mitomycin C in primary pterygium surgery.
METHODS: This retrospective study included 146 consecutive patients(193 eyes)with primary pterygium. Ninety-one eyes had a narrow inferior limbal conjunctival autograft transplant(NI-LCAT)and 102 had a wide inferior limbal conjunctival autograft transplant(WI-LCAT)combined with Mitomycin C application. Outcome measures included recurrence rate, residual conjunctival bed status, and complications.
RESULTS: The recurrence rate in the NI-LCAT and WI-LCAT group was 3.3% and 4.9%, respectively(P=0.844). The grade of residual bed appearance in the NI-LCAT group was similar to the WI-LCAT group. Mild to moderate conjunctival scarring at the donor site was the most common complication in both groups(18.6% and 13.2% in NI-LCAT and WI-LCAT groups, respectively). There were no significant differences in the incidence of any other complications including subconjunctival epithelial cyst and granuloma at the recipient site between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative probabilities of success between the two groups were not statistically significantly different.
CONCLUSION: Both NI-LCAT and WI-LCAT combined with Mitomycin C in primary pterygium surgery have low recurrence rates. Compared with WI-LCAT, NI-LCAT technique is found to be less traumatic and an effective surgery in terms of preserving the superior and inferior conjunctiva.

Abstract:AIM: To determine the pattern of ocular morbidity among preschool children at urban area of Chittagong.
METHODS: A random cross-sectional survey was conducted to determine the prevalence of ocular morbidity among preschool children in the urban area of Chittagong. Preschool children aged 4 to 6 years old in all 60 preschools were registered, interviewed and their eyes examined. All the data obtained was analyzed according to the sex, age, and causes of visual impairment and type of ocular diseases.
RESULTS: A total of 900 preschool children from 60 preschools were examined where boys were(52.6%)more than girls(47.4%). The age range of students varied from 4 to 6 years. The mean and median ages were 5.47±0.64. About 16.89% ocular morbidity was found among preschool going children and of these abnormalities 7.66% of children have Refractive error followed by Conjunctivitis 3.66%, Blepharitis 2.77%, Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction(NDO)1.66%, Infective conjunctivitis was 0.88%, Stye 0.33%, Chalazion 0.44%. Amblyopia was present in 1.11%, Strabismus in 0.77%, Development Cataract 0.11%, and Corneal Opacity in 0.33% cases which was a matter of concern.
CONCLUSION: Ocular morbidity among preschool children can be easily identified by ongoing eye screening programs and if treated timely to reduce the prevalence of ocular diereses and visual impairment. The present study shows uncorrected refractive errors as the main cause of visual disability in preschool children.

Abstract:The relationship between diabetic retinopathy and macro-vascular complications in diabetes suggests a pathogenic association between these conditions. Vascular endothelium has been identified as a main site of blood vessel injury in diabetes. Diabetic retinopathy is associated with systemic arterial stiffness and altered vascular endothelium function and structure. Retinal vasculature endothelium at the macula, arterio-venous crossings, and in the optic nerve at the lamina cribrosa region is reported to differ from the endothelium in the rest of the retinal blood vessels. The central retinal artery and vein are in close proximity in the optic nerve where they share a common adventitia; thus, increased arterial wall stiffness and thickness may affect blood flow in the neighboring central retinal vein in this region. Moreover, increased arterial stiffness in small arterial beds is associated with retinal venular widening; it suggests the possibility of central retinal artery compressing the central retinal vein at the lamina cribrosa, thereby compromising venular outflow in the retina of diabetic patients. Altered blood flow in the central retinal vein in the postlaminar region has been detected in patients who experience progression of diabetic retinopathy. Increased hydrostatic pressure in the central retinal vein may play a major role in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy. The aim of this review article is to emphasize this pathogenetic mechanism that has often been overlooked.

Abstract:The role of photopic negative response(PhNR)and pattern electroretinogram(PERG)was assessed as diagnostic indicator of glaucoma. Ten control subjects and 15 patients with early glaucoma underwent complete ophthalmological examination including visual acuity measurement, intraocular pressure(IOP)measurement, fundus examination and visual field examination. Pattern ERG and photopic full-field ERG were performed. Mean deviation(MD)and pattern standard deviation(PSD)means were significantly reduced in glaucoma group(P<0.001 and P<0.01). The amplitudes of PERG N95, PhNR, b-wave and the PhNR/b-wave ratio were significantly reduced(P<0.001). The rise in IOP resulted in reduction of PERG and PhNR amplitude.

Abstract:AIM: To investigate the effect of hypoxia on the expression of NOX4 in cultured human RPE cells in vitro.
METHODS:Human RPE cells were cultured and passaged, and 3-6 generation cells were used in the experiment. The experiment was divided into normoxia control group and hypoxia group. The human RPE cells in normoxia control group were routinely cultured. The culture medium containing 200μmol/L CoCl2 was used to establish the hypoxia model of human RPE cells cultured in vitro for 0,4,6,8,12 and 24h, and the RPE cells cultured normoxia were as controls. The effects of different time of hypoxia on the expression of NOX4 were identified by Immunofluorescence staining and Western-blot assay.
RESULTS:RPE cells grew well in the control group and hypoxia group. The morphology was spindle. The morphology and arrangement of cells in hypoxia group had no significant change compared with the control group. Immunofluorescence staining showed that there was a small amount of NOX4 expression in the RPE cells of the normoxia control group. Cytoplasm showed green fluorescence while the nucleus was blue. The expression of NOX4 increased after hypoxia, and continued until the late stage of hypoxia. Western-bolt results showed that the expression level of NOX4 under hypoxic conditions in RPE cells increased significantly, and is proportional to the hypoxia time, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).
CONCLUSION: NADPH oxidase 4 in normal human RPE cells have a small amount of expression, hypoxia can significantly increase the expression of NOX4, and is proportional to the time. It suggests that NADPH oxidase may play an important role in the formation of choroidal neovascularization.

Abstract:AIM: To investigate the clinical effect of 2.2mm micro incision phacoemulsification.
METHODS: From January 2015 to February 2016, 93 cases with 112 eyes who underwent cataract phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation in our hospital, were selected and randomly divided into micro incision group(47 cases 52 eyes)and traditional incision group(46 cases 60 eyes),micro incision group underwent 2.2mm coaxial micro incision, traditional incision group underwent 3.2mm incision. We observed average phacoemulsification energy(AVE), effective phacoemulsification time(EPT), corneal endothelial cell count of the two groups.
RESULTS: Preoperative and postoperative corneal endothelial cells of two groups showed no significant difference(P>0.05). The loss rate of corneal endothelial cells in the micro incision group and the traditional incision group were(12.09±4.14)% and(13.24±5.44)%, and the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05). Micro incision group AVE was(10.01±3.21)%, significantly lower than that of the traditional incision group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in EPT between the two groups(P>0.05). There was no significant difference on the preoperative and postoperative naked eye LogMAR vision between the micro incision group and the traditional incision group(P>0.05). The micro incision group postoperative 1wk, 1 and 3mo astigmatism were 0.47±0.12, 0.40±0.10 and 0.36±0.12, which was significantly less than that of the traditional incision group(P<0.05). No serious complications were found in the two groups intraoperatively and postoperatively.
CONCLUSION: The new surgery 2.2mm micro incision phacoemulsification can effectively save ultrasonic energy, reduce surgical astigmatism, and is conducive to improve the visual quality. Its damage to corneal endothelial cells is similar to traditional incisions.

Abstract:AIM: To study changes of tear film after femtosecond assistant laser in situ keratomileusis(LASIK).
METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed 150 patients(300 eyes)selected in our hospital from June 2014 to June 2016 to and followed up for 3mo. The dry eye symptoms, break-up time(BUT), Schirmer Ⅰ test and fluorescein staining(FL)scores were observed preoperatively, 1wk, 1, 2, 3mo after operations.
RESULTS:(1)dry eye symptom score: there was no significant difference between scores before operations and 3mo after operations(P=0.863); there were significant differences between scores before operations with 1wk, 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.001, 0.002, 0.002); there was no significant difference between scores at 1wk and 1mo after operations(P=0.799); there were significant differences between scores at 1wk after operations with 2,3mo after operations(P=0.004).(2)BUT: there was no significant difference between scores before operations and 3mo after operations(P=0.625); there were significant differences between scores before operations with 1wk, 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.029, 0.017, 0.002); there was no significant difference between scores at 1wk and 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.827, 0.672); there was no significant differences between scores at 1 and 2mo after operations(P=0.423); there were significant differences between scores at 3mo after operations with 1wk, 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.001、0.023、0.026).(3)FL:there was no significant difference between scores before operations and 3mo after operations(P=0.521); there were significant differences between scores before operations with 1wk, 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.001, 0.019, 0.026).(4)SⅠt: there was no significant difference between scores before operations and 3mo after operations(P=0.749); there were significant differences between scores before operations with 1wk, 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.000, 0.002, 0.006); there were no significant differences between scores at 1wk and 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.364, 0.424); there were significant differences between scores at 3mo after operations with 1wk, 1, 2mo after operations(P=0.012, 0.023, 0.029). Multivariate analysis showed that myopia time after operations, preoperative intraocular pressure, axial length, preoperative BCVA and cutting ratio were risk factors for the recovery of visual acuity.
CONCLUSION: Dry eye occurred after femtosecond laser LASIKE, but generally last short period and symptoms were slight. Within 3mo after the operations, patients can recover the level close to the preoperative. Its mechanism is related to various factors. At the same time, the tear film function gives guidance for postoperative medication.

Abstract:AIM:To review the efficacy of SMILE and femtosecond laser-guided LASIK(FS-LASIK)in correction of myopia.
METHODS:The PubMed, Cochrane Library, SciVerse, WanFang Data and CNKI databases were searched for Meta-analysis of literature comparing FS-LASIK and SMILE outcomes.
RESULTS:A total of 5 literatures met the inclusion criteria of this study, a total of 689 cases(999 eyes). Meta-analysis showed: SMILE and FS-LASEK myopia treatment effectiveness \〖OR=0.83, 95%CI=(0.52, 1.33)\〗, predictability \〖OR=0.54, 95%CI=(0.22, 1.29)\〗 and security \〖OR=1.10, 95%CI(0.80, 1.51)\〗 no statistically significant difference.
CONCLUSION:SMILE and FS-LASIK correction of myopia is safe, effective, have good vision correction effect. However, due to the low quality of the included studies and the instability of the statistical results, the above conclusions need to be further validated by more rigorous randomized controlled trials.

Abstract:Corneal diseases caused by limbal stem cell deficiency are common in ophthalmology outpatients. Limbal stem cell transplantation has become a hot spot in the treatment of these diseases. According to limbal stem cell deficiency or not and its degree, we choose different cell therapy. Therefore, identification of limbal stem cell deficiency is an important reference for transplant surgery selection, which also could lay a solid foundation for the follow-up transplantation experiment. Here we mainly summarize some research advancement of identifying limbal stem cell deficiency methods.

Abstract:As the continuous improvement and development of cataract surgery technology and intraocular lens(IOL), patients with postoperative visual quality requirements are no longer confined to "see", but is durable and comfortable to "see". Aberration is the important factors affecting postoperative visual quality. It includes low-order aberrations and higher-order aberrations. Low-order aberration can be corrected easily, but high-order aberration is more difficult to correct, and the higher order, the more difficulty to correct. Studies have showed that high order aberrations increase with age not only including spherical aberration, but also coma. But the change is far less than the spherical aberration, and other higher-order aberrations are close to zero. So spherical aberration becomes key area of high-order aberration attention and research in ophthalmology. Conventional spherical IOL has positive spherical aberration. It can not correct positive corneal spherical aberration of human eyes. In order to correct the positive corneal spherical aberration, the aspherical IOLs which design with zero or negative spherical aberration have been produced, studies have shown that it can obtain better postoperative visual quality than traditional spherical IOL, but how to comprehensively evaluate different spherical aberration aspherical IOL eye vision quality and how to choose it individually are the problems need to solve right now. For the best corrected spherical aberration of IOL eyes is uncertain, studies found that the amount of positive spherical aberration general approach to obtain a better visual quality, and can increase the depth of focus, which can increase far and near vision. In this paper, we will summarize the research progress on individual choice of aspheric IOL, to provide clinical basis about how to choose it individually for clinicians.

Abstract:Intraocular lens(IOL)refractive prediction of cataract surgery in high myopes is more inaccuracy compared to that of the routine cataract surgery. It is particularly important that how to measure biology accurately and choose the correct intraocular lens calculation formula. We summarized and analyzed postoperative refractive prediction deviation, the constants in the formula application and ocular axial length adjusting method in high myopia cataract surgery. In this review, lens diopter prediction standard formula(Holladay 1, SRK / T, Hoffer Q and Haigis)and the fourth generation of lens formula were contrasted, which could provide valuable reference for clinical applications.

Abstract:Glaucoma is an ophthalmic disease with common characteristics of progressive and diagnostic optic nerve damage. In previous studies, intraocular hypertension is recognized as the main risk factor which causes the optic nerve damage. Besides, the anomaly of optic blood flow regulation caused by carotid artery stenosis, and hypoxia-ischemia caused by hypoperfusion of optic nerve blood flow, are also considered as one of the pathogenesises of glaucoma. Researches show that carotid artery anomaly plays a quite significant role during the development of glaucoma. This paper is going to summarize the correlation research of glaucoma and carotid artery.

Abstract:With the rapid development of the plateau economy and the increasing human activity on plateau, the plateau related diseases turned into a focus of social and medical attention, but it is also the main constraint on the development of plateau. High altitude retinopathy(HAR)as a kind of high altitude disease, showed mainly retinal vascular congestion, tortuosity, retinal hemorrhage and vitreous hemorrhage. The early effect of HAR showed a temporary visual impairment, long-term effect were irreversible visual impairment and eye complications. The prevention is the key point for HAR, so early diagnosis and timely treatment critical for a good prognosis. The technology of visual electrophysiological examination plays an important role in the diagnosis, differential diagnosis, prognosis, evaluation of therapeutic effect and objective assessment of the visual function, with its unique advantage. Electroretinogram(ERG)is an important part of the visual electrophysiology. As an objective examination method of retinal function, not only can ERG find the early changes of retinal function at high altitude, especially those without any clinical symptoms of HAR, but also ERG can dynamically observe the development and therapeutic effects of HAR.

Abstract:AIM: To evaluate the uncorrected visual acuity after implantation of spherical astigmatism intraocular lens(IOL)and aspheric astigmatism intraocular lens in cataract surgery of patients with preoperative corneal astigmatism.
METHODS: Fifty-seven eyes of 44 patients were divided into two groups according to Toric intraocular lens types: spherical group with 23 patients(27 eyes), aspheric group with 21 patients(30 eyes). Uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA)preoperatively and at postoperative 1d, preoperative corneal astigmatism, intraocular lens type and spherical equivalent, IOL cylinder axis position were recorded. We compared the two groups of uncorrected distance logMAR visual acuity visual differences at preoperative and postoperative 1d and calculated the proportion of patients with UDVA over 0.4 at postoperative 1d, then divided patients into two layers in accordance with astigmatism degree with less than 2.0D as low astigmatism layer and more than 2.0D as high astigmatism layer and compared the improving effect of two groups of postoperative UDVA according to the preoperative corneal astigmatism.
RESULTS: In spherical and aspheric group, the rate of patients at postoperative 1d with UDVA better than 0.4 were 92.6% and 93.3%, which were significantly increased compared with preoperative 14.8% and 13.3% respectively. The LogMAR UDVA of two groups at postoperative 1d compared with preoperative were significantly improved, and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.01). There was no significant difference in LogMAR UDVA at preoperative and postoperative 1d between two groups(P>0.05). Within every astigmatism layer, there was no statistical significance between two intraocular lens in improved degree of the postoperative UDVA(P>0.05); the LogMAR UDVA of every group at postoperative 1d compared with its preoperative were significantly improved, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01). Within every group, the difference of improving effect of postoperative UDVA between different preoperative astigmatism had no statistical significance(P>0.05); the LogMAR UDVA of every layer at postoperative 1d compared with its preoperative were significantly improved, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).
CONCLUSION: Spherical and aspheric Toric IOL implantation can both effectively improve the UDVA in cataract surgery of patients with preoperative corneal astigmatism. But in terms of improving the UDVA, aspheric Toric intraocular lens is not better than that of spherical.

Abstract:AIM: To analysis the feasibility of selectively targeting +0.1μm total spherical aberration by personalized aspheric intraocular lens implantation.
METHODS:Seventy-four cases(82 eyes)were randomly divided into experimental and control group, the corneal spherical aberration with 6mm pupil diameter was measured with Pentacam before surgery. Patients in experimental group received TecnisZCB00, Hoya60AD and ADAPT-AO, three different aspheric intraocular lenses, and the principle as the total spherical aberration close to +0.1μm. Patients in control group received ADAPT-AO aspheric intraocular lens. The uncorrected visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity, corneal spherical aberration and total spherical aberration were measured after 3mo.
RESULTS:There was no statistically significant difference in the uncorrected visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity between the two groups(t=0.817, 0.343, P>0.05). The comparison of corneal spherical aberration of the two groups showed no statistical significance before and after surgery(t=0.688, 0.592, P>0.05). The difference of total ocular aberrations were statistically significant between two groups(t=5.408,P<0.05). In the experimental group, there were no significant difference in total ocular aberrations among the different intraocular lens group between preoperative predictive value and postoperative value(t=1.943, 2.033, 0.032, P>0.05). The prediction error of total ocular aberrations were positively correlated with the preoperative corneal spherical aberration(r=0.834, P<0.05).
CONCLUSION:The personalized aspheric intraocular lens implantation based on preoperative corneal spherical aberration is feasible. This method can reduce postoperative total ocular aberrations and make the aberrations close to the predictive value.

Abstract:AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness of vitrectomy combined with intravitreal Conbercept injection for 11 polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy(PCV)associated with vitreous hemorrhage patients.
METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 11 patients(7 males and 4 females, 11 eyes)who were first diagnosed with vitreous hemorrhage between Feb. 2014 and Jul. 2015 in our hospital. These patients aged 65 to 79 years(mean 69.5±9.0y). The best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)was light perception in 1 eye, hand moving in 7 eyes, counting finger in 3 eyes. Vitrectomy combined with cataract extraction were operated in all 11 patients, which all patients were given gas tamponade. Three patients were diagnosed as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy through fundus fluorescence angiography(FFA)and Indocyanine green angiography(ICGA)before vitrectomy(8 eyes were diagnosed as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy after vitrectomy 1mo). Eleven patients were treated with an intravitreal Conbercept injection, received intravitreal injection of Conbercept(0.5mg, 0.05 mL)once a month for 3 consecutive months. If disease progressed or recurred during follow- up, the patients were re-injected with Conbercept. All the patients completed 12mo of follow-up after the first intravitreal Conbercept injection. The examination of the ocular fundus, B-ultrasound, best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and optical coherence tomography(OCT)were performed before vitrectomy, 1mo after vitrectomy and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 and 12mo the first intravitreal Conbercept injection in 11 patients.
RESULTS: At 12mo of follow-up, the fundus examination revealed that the retinal deep and superficial hemorrhage of 11 patients were completely absorbed, which the subretinal orange-red lesions were still visible in 5 patients. B-ultrasound revealed that subretinal hemorrhage of 11 patients were also completely absorbed. The best corrected visual acuity of 11 patients were significantly improved, but metamorphopsia were still existence in 3 patients. The optical coherence tomography revealed that macular central retinal thickness were significantly decreased, but serous retinal pigment epithelium detachment were still existence in 6 patients.
CONCLUSION: Vitrectomy is effective for the treatment and definite diagnosis of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy associated with vitreous hemorrhage patients. Vitrectomy combined with intravitreal Conbercept can facilitate the absorption of hemorrhage and exudates, relieve edema of the retina, promote the regression of the polyps and increase the patients' visual acuity.

Abstract:AIM: To study the clinical characteristics of retinal hole patients with vitreous opacity as initial symptom.
METHODS:Clinical data of sixty eyes from sixty patients who came to our hospital with an initial symptom of vitreous floaters from June 2015 to June 2016 were retrospective studied. A diagnosis of retinal hole was made in all the patients by the eye B ultrasonic, dilated eye examination and optical coherence tomography.
RESULTS: No history of trauma or other eye diseases were identified in all the 60 cases. The patients were aged from 18 to 69 years old, and 48 of them were over 40. The number of the retinal holes ranged from one to four per eye. Twelve eyes(20%)of the patients had more than one hole, and retinal holes of 10(17%)patients were found in two different locations, with the size of the holes ranging from 1/6 to 2 PD. The holes in 39 eyes(65%)were found in the superior temporal retina, and the holes in 18 eyes(30%)were found in the inferior temporal retina. The shape of the holes was circle in 46 eyes(77%). B ultrasound revealed that all the 60 eyes showed different degrees of vitreous opacity, among which 48 eyes(80%)complicated with posterior vitreous detachment, and 24 eyes of them also suffered from a high degree of myopia.
CONCLUSION: Retinal hole with initial symptom of vitreous opacity was mostly diagnosed in elderly people. A detailed retinal examination of each patient who experiences vitreous floaters should be done. B ultrasonic and dilated eye examinations can make diagnosis clearly. OCT examination can serve as a supportive evidence to facilitate the diagnosis of retinal hole.
