Background: This study investigated factors associated with fellow eye horseshoe retinal tear (HST) development in consecutive patients with a presenting eye HST.
Materials And Methods: Medical records were reviewed for patients with initial HSTs between 2015 and 2017 and 24 factors were analyzed. Logistic regression was used to assess factors associated with fellow eye HST development.
Results: In total, 242 patients with an HST were identified with mean follow-up of 68.3 months. Four associations with fellow eye HST development were identified: (1) presence of fellow eye lattice degeneration, (2) subsequent presenting eye HSTs, (3) fellow eye vitreous hemorrhage at presenting eye HST occurrence, (4) OCT-determined stage 3 fellow eye posterior vitreous detachment at presenting eye HST occurrence.
Conclusion: Four clinical findings associated with fellow eye HST development following presenting eye HST were identified. These factors may be important considerations during management patients with HST. .

Purpose: To evaluate choroidal vasculature using a novel three-dimensional algorithm in fellow eyes of patients with unilateral chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (cCSC).
Methods: Patients with unilateral cCSC were retrospectively included. Automated choroidal segmentation was conducted using a deep-learning ResUNet model.

Introduction: Delays in head and neck cancer (HNC) diagnosis and treatment and financial burdens of care are often rooted in social determinants of health (SDOH), such as financial instability, socioeconomic status (SES), health insurance status, and transportation barriers. While these factors are well recognized, their underlying impact on access to care remains underexplored; this qualitative study aims to investigate how these SDOH facilitate or hinder HNC care through insights from patients and healthcare workers (HCWs) in the United States, to identify targets for intervention.
Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with patients with newly diagnosed HNC, and HCWs caring for these patients, between June 2022 and July 2023.

Purpose: To investigate the spatial relationship between choroidal vortex veins (VVs), choroidal watershed zones (CWZs), and polypoidal lesion distribution in different subtypes of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) categorized by choroidal vascular hyperpermeability (CVH) status.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 58 treatment-naïve PCV eyes using widefield imaging to map dominant VVs, CWZs, and lesion locations. Eyes were stratified into CVH (n = 32) and non-CVH (n = 26) groups.

Purpose: Simulations suggest that displacement of rectus extraocular muscle pulleys in superior oblique (SO) palsy accounts for incomitant strabismus patterns even without postulating SO contractile weakness. We asked how rectus extraocular muscle pulleys reorient during head tilt in SO palsy.
Methods: In 13 subjects with unilateral SO palsy, supine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 2-mm-thick quasi-coronal planes in target-controlled central gaze was repeated in both lateral decubitus positions equivalent to 90° head tilts.

Purpose: To compare the optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) findings of retinal microvasculature in anisometropic amblyopic eyes with fellow eyes.
Methods: A comparative observational study was conducted in children with unilateral anisometropic amblyopia to compare the OCTA findings of retinal microvasculature between amblyopic and normal fellow eyes. Major outcome measures included superficial vessel density, deep vessel density, and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) parameters (area, perimetry, acircularity index) of amblyopic eye and fellow eye on OCTA.
