Abstract: Silicone oil, as a vitreous substitute, is widely applied to the surgical treatment of complicated vitreoretinal diseases. Although silicone oil is generally recognized for its safety and efficacy, its intraocular tamponade can cause various complications in the anterior and posterior segments of the eyes. With the emergence and application of Optical Coherence Tomography(OCT)and Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography(OCTA)in recent years, retinochoroidal changes associated with silicone oil tamponade have been further studied. This review summarizes the changes in the blood flow and structure of the retina and choroid associated with silicone oil tamponade, which were detected by OCT and OCTA.

Key words: Silicone oils, Optical coherence tomography, Optical coherence tomography angiography, Retina, Choroid

[12] Pathologic myopia(PM)is a major cause of vision loss worldwide, particularly in Asian countries. Choroidal neovascularization(CNV)is a severe complication of PM, which can cause macular disorders, leading to central scotoma, metamorphopsia, visual field loss, and finally blindness if not treated. The advents of optical coherence topography(OCT), OCT angiography, and fundus fluorescein angiography are helpful in diagnosing CNV due to PM, which can show the position and size of CNV, whether active or passive. For the treatment, photodynamic and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(anti-VEGF)therapies are widely applied. In recent years, administering the intravitreal anti-VEGF injection has become the first-line treatment for CNV secondary to PM. Many clinical studies have indicated that intravitreal anti-VEGF injections affect antagonizing neovascularization and reduce macular edema, thereby contributing to visual improvements and better long-term outcomes. This article provides an overview of the current diagnosis and treatment options for myopic CNV.. Diagnosis and treatment of choroidal neovascularization in pathologic myopia [J].

[13] Central retinal artery occlusion(CRAO)is the most common cause of acute vision loss. Thrombolysis is a more radical treatment than conservative treatment, including arterial thrombolysis and intravenous thrombolysis, as well as the combination therapy of thrombolysis and other therapies. Thrombolysis treatment can improve the visual acuity of CRAO patients, but because of its lack of randomized controlled trials, further clinical studies are needed to determine their efficacy and safety. Our review summarized the application progress of thrombolysis in recent ten years, further evaluated its safety and effectiveness, and provided an evidence for clinical application..

[14] Ocular ischemic syndrome(OIS)is usually undiagnosed or misdiagnosed due to its asymptomatic onset, complicated ocular manifestations, and the lack of awareness, and patients with OIS have a higher mortality.

[15] ObjectiveTo compare the effects of intra-arterial thrombolysis and traditional treatment in central retinal artery occlusion(CRAO). MethodsWe searched the Pubmed, Embase, Clinical.gov, CNKI, and Wan Fang databases for related studies that were published up to May , . We included clinical controls that compared intra-arterial thrombolysis and conventional treatment in CRAO. The random effect model and R software were used for data analysis. ResultsWe identified seven studies including CRAO patients. Meta-analysis results of two randomized controlled trials(RCTs)showed that there was no significant difference in visual acuity improvement between CRAO patients treated with arterial thrombolysis therapy and those with conventional therapy(RR: ., % confidence interval .-., P=.). Meta-analysis results of five cohort studies indicated that compared with conventional therapy, arterial thrombolysis therapy significantly improved visual acuity(RR: ., % confidence interval .-., P<.). The difference between thrombolysis therapy and conventional therapy may be caused by the different treatment time windows in patients. Concerning the adverse reactions after treatment, two RCTs and five cohort studies showed that the adverse reactions in the thrombolysis group are significantly higher than those in the conventional treatment group. ConclusionAlthough intra-arterial thrombolysis therapy has therapeutic potential in CRAO patients, there is still insufficient clinical evidence to prove its effectiveness and safety. Further studies with a large sample and high quality RCTs are required..
