Germano,Renato Antunes Schiave; Hatanaka,Marcelo; Garcia,Arthur Sônego; Germano,Flavio Augusto Schiave; Germano,Caroline Schiave; Cid,Felipe BiscegliABSTRACT Purpose: Glaucoma is the main cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Peak intraocular pressure is one of the main risk factors for glaucoma progression, and intraocular pressure reduction remains the only therapeutic strategy for all types of glaucoma. The main purpose of our study was to compare the baseline and peak intraocular pressure reduction obtained with the water drinking test between the ...
The effect of panretinal photocoagulation on confocal laser scanning ophthalmos...
Azevedo,Breno Marques da Silva; Araujo,Rafael Barbosa de; Ciongoli,Marina R.; Hatanaka,Marcelo; Preti,Rony Carlos; Monteiro,Mario Luiz RibeiroABSTRACT Purpose: To determine the effect of panretinal photocoagulation on optic disk topographic parameters in non-glaucomatous patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Methods: This was a prospective, single-center, observational study. Thirty-eight eyes of 26 patients with diabetes underwent panretinal photocoagulation for proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Stereoscopic disk photographs and optic ...
Choroidal thickness variation in highly myopic eyes during the water drinking test
Germano,Renato Antunes Schiave; Hatanaka,Marcelo; Susanna Junior,RemoABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate variations in choroidal thickness (CT) during the water drinking test (WDT) in emmetropic eyes (EE) and highly myopic eyes (ME) using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods: Clinical trial performed at a tertiary care hospital comprising 30 randomly selected eyes. The WDT and SD-OCT macular scans were performed 10 and 45 min after water ingestion in 15 myopi...
The role of pattern-reversal electroretinography in the diagnosis of glaucoma
Kreuz,André Carvalho; Oyamada,Maria Kiyoko; Hatanaka,Marcelo; Monteiro,Mário Luiz RibeiroPattern electroretinography is used to assess the function of the inner retinal layers, particularly the retinal ganglion cell layer, using a reversing checkerboard or grating pattern that maintains a constant overall mean luminance over time. A normal transient response comprises a positive component of the wave (P50) followed by a longer negative component of the wave (N95). Glaucomatous optic neuropathy caus...
Vasculopatia coroidiana polipóide idiopática: relato de cinco casos
Hatanaka,Marcelo; Tambasco,Fabiana Paula; Takahashi,Walter Y.; Suzuki,Hisashi; Hirai,AlcidesA vasculopatia coroidiana polipóide idiopática é entidade recentemente descrita relacionada a descolamentos recorrentes sero-sanguinolentos do epitélio pigmentado da retina ou da retina neuro-sensorial. Decorre de alterações na vascularização coroidiana que levam à formação de canais vasculares ramificados em rede vascular que termina em lesões nodulares polipóides na região justapapilar temporal. Este estudo r...
