Introduction and Objective: Glaucoma is the leading cause of global irreversible blindness, signed by glaucomatous optic neuropathy related to visual field defect. The purpose of the study is comparing visual field defect examination using HVFA to Amsler Grid in glaucoma patient at dr. Kariadi Hospital. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. Amsler Grid were performed to the patients who have reliable HVFA at last 6 months and presented as descriptive analytic results. Result: There were 40 eyes involved in this study from 27 patients (15 men, 12 women), 26-68 years old and visual acuity 1/60-6/6. Seventeen eyes showed visual field defect in HVFA and Amsler Grid had average MD - 24.97 dB, CDR 0.89 and RNFL thickness 51.74. We found that 11 eyes didn’t showed in both of examination had average MD -8.06, CDR 0.63 and RNFL thickness 103.23 and those parameters are significantly different to the 17 eyes before (p<0.05). Data from 12 eyes that showed visual field defect only one of examination (9 only in HVFA and 3 in Amsler Grid) didn’t show difference statistically each other. Conclusion: HFVA and Amsler Grid seemed to be comparable in detecting visual field defect in advanced glaucoma.

Objective. To describe a case of acute zonal occult outer retinopathy (AZOOR) in an active duty patient.Methods. In this paper we studied fundus photographs, optical coherence tomograph, Humphrey visual field 30-2, fundus autofluorescence images, fluorescein angiograms, and electroretinography.Results. Exam findings on presentation: a 34-year-old American Indian female presented with bilateral photopsias, early RPE irregularity, and an early temporal visual field defect. Progression RPE damage and visual field defect along with ERG findings support final diagnosis of AZOOR.Conclusion. AZOOR may initially be identified as a broader category of disease called the “AZOOR complex of disorders”. Specific visual field defects, ERG results, and clinical exam findings will help distinguish AZOOR from other similar disorders.

Abstract Coaxial support is a fundamental technique utilized by neurointerventionalists to optimize distal catheter control within the intracranial circulation. Here we present a 41-yr-old woman with a previously coiled ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm with progressive recurrence harboring tortuous internal carotid anatomy to demonstrate the utility of coaxial support. Raymond-Roy classification of initial aneurysm coiling of class 1 resulted as class 3b over the 21 mo from initial treatment.1 The patient consented to stent-assisted coiling for retreatment of this aneurysm. Coaxial support was advanced as distally as possible in the proximal vasculature to improve catheter control, reducing dead space within which the microcatheter could move, decreasing angulations within proximal vasculature, limiting the movement of the native vessels, and providing a surface of lower friction than the endothelium. As the risk of recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage in previously treated coiled aneurysms approaches 3%, retreatment occurs in 16.4% within 6 yr2 and in 17.4% of patients within 10 yr.3 Rerupture is slightly higher in patients who underwent coiling vs clipping, with the rerupture risk inversely proportional to the degree of aneurysm occlusion,4 further substantiating that coaxial support provides technical advantage in selected patients where additional microcatheter control is necessary for optimal occlusion. Pitfalls of this technique include vasospasm and vascular injury, which can be ameliorated by pretreatment of the circulation with vasodilators to prevent catheter-induced vasospasm. This case and model demonstration illustrates the technique of coaxial access in the stent-assisted coiling of a recurrent anterior communicating artery aneurysm and identification and management of catheter-induced vasospasm.

Abstract Purpose To investigate the relationship of ocular blood flow (via arteriovenous passage time, AVP) and contrast sensitivity (CS) in healthy as well as normal tension glaucoma (NTG) subjects. Design Mono-center comparative prospective trial Methods Twenty-five NTG patients without medication and 25 healthy test participants were recruited. AVP as a measure of retinal blood flow was recorded via fluorescein angiography after CS measurement using digital image analysis. Association of AVP and CS at 4 spatial frequencies (3, 6, 12, and 18 cycles per degree, cpd) was explored with correlation analysis. Results Significant differences regarding AVP, visual field defect, intraocular pressure, and CS measurement were recorded in-between the control group and NTG patients. In NTG patients, AVP was significantly correlated to CS at all investigated cpd (3 cpd: r =  − 0.432, p< 0.03; 6 cpd: r =  − 0.629, p< 0.0005; 12 cpd: r =  − 0.535, p< 0.005; and 18 cpd: r =  − 0.58, p< 0.001), whereas no significant correlations were found in the control group. Visual acuity was significantly correlated to CS at 6, 12, and 18 cpd in NTG patients (r =  − 0.68, p< 0.002; r =  − 0.54, p< .02, and r =  − 0.88, p< 0.0001 respectively), however not in healthy control patients. Age, visual field defect MD, and PSD were not significantly correlated to CS in in the NTG group. MD and PSD were significantly correlated to CS at 3 cpd in healthy eyes (r = 0.55, p< 0.02; r =  − 0.47, p< 0.03). Conclusion Retinal blood flow alterations show a relationship with contrast sensitivity loss in NTG patients. This might reflect a disease-related link between retinal blood flow and visual function. This association was not recorded in healthy volunteers.
