    Chronic Relapsing Inflammatory Optic Neuropathy
    (KARE PUBL, 2019) Yassa, Ertugrul Tan; Bakbak, Berker
    Chronic relapsing inflammatory optic neuropathy (CRION) is a form of recurrent, isolated, subacute optic neuropathy. A 33-year-old female presented at an outpatient clinic with a pain-ful reduction of vision in the left eye that had developed 10 days earlier. The patient provided a background history of 5 similar attacks over the past 5 years. CRION was diagnosed following ophthalmological and imaging examinations, which revealed optic neuritis without demye-lination. The patient was successfully treated with steroids. The early detection of CRION is important because of the associated risk of blindness if CRION is treated inappropriately.

    Persistent subretinal fluid: Wait or treat
    (2018) Yassa, Ertugrul Tan; Bakbak, Berker
    Persistent subretinal fluid (SRF) may occur even after successful surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).In most cases, persistent SRF resolves spontaneously within a year, but persistent SRF may cause poor central vision, photoreceptordamage, and the irreversible loss of visual function. Therefore, a variety of interventions have been developedto manage persistent SRF, including the prophylactic use of steroids. As far as we know, an intravitreal steroid injectionhas never been used in the treatment of persistent SR. This report is a description of steroid treatment used in the caseof a 46-year-old male patient with SRF persisting for 15 months after pars plana vitrectomy surgery for the treatmentof macula-off RRD. A single-dose intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection (4 mg/0.1 mL) was administered;however, no improvement was seen in the lesions. It was concluded that an IVTA injection should be used in a limitedfashion in patients with persistent SRF.
