Article Abstract
Purpose: To compare retinal vessel density before and after strabismus surgery using swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA).
Methods: In this longitudinal, single-arm pilot study, vascular density in the deep capillary plexus (DCP), superficial retinal capillary plexus (SCP) and choriocapillaris layer (CCL) in consecutive subjects undergoing strabismus surgery was assessed using SS-OCTA preoperatively (T0), on the first day postoperatively (POD1), and 30 days postoperatively (POD30).
Results: A total of 92 eyes of 56 patients (54% males) were included. Mean patient age was 41.1 ± 22.7. OCT vascular density of the DCP was 50.20 ± 5.57 at T0, 52.74 ± 4.77 at POD1, and 50.92 ± 4.58 at POD30. The differences were statistically significant for T0 versus POD1 (P < 0.05). Vascular density of the CCL was 50.72 ± 4.80 at T0, 53.59 ± 3.65 at POD1, and 51.39 ± 4.64 at POD30. The differences were statistically significant for T0 versus POD1 (P < 0.05). No significant differences were found in SCP (P > 0.05).
Conclusions: Transitory hemodynamic changes can occur in the DCP and in the CCL following muscle recession procedures.

Purpose: To objectively quantify, in East Asians and Caucasians, the width and distribution of the retro-orbicularis oculi and frontalis fat (ROOF) pad, subcutaneous fat, and orbicularis oculi muscle (OOM) at the superior orbital rim margin as well as 5 mm superior and inferior to this point.
Methods: Thirty adults were studied by high-resolution, surface coil MRI. In the quasi-sagittal image through the globe center, the ROOF, subcutaneous fat, and OOM thickness were measured anterior to the orbital septum, at 3 points: at the superior orbital rim, and 5 mm superior, and 5 mm inferior to the rim.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) remains a major cause of preventable blindness in premature infants worldwide, with increasing incidence due to advancements in neonatal care. Management of ROP has been revolutionised by anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatments. Pivotal clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of anti-VEGF in the management of Type 1 ROP, while investigation of safety and long-term effects is ongoing.

Myopic strabismus fixus (MSF) is an acquired, progressive form of strabismus associated with high myopia. It is typically characterised by an esotropia-hypotropia or exotropia-hypotropia complex. We present a sporadic case of a middle-aged adult male with high myopia, who exhibited an esotropia-hypertropia complex in both eyes.
