    Abstract Purpose: We report a case of a patient with a bilateral branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) 24 h after a booster vaccination with the mRNA-1237 vaccine.
    Observations: Fluorescein angiography, performed at three weeks follow-up, showed vascular leakage and blockage, corresponding to hemorrhage areas associated with ischemic areas in the macula and along the arcades involved in the occlusion.
    Conclusions: The patient was scheduled for urgent injections of intravitreal ranibizumab and laser photocoagulation of the ischemic areas. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case described of concomitant bilateral RVO after COVID-19 vaccination. The rapid onset of the side effects in a patient with multiple risk factors for thrombotic events suggests that vulnerable microvascular conditions require detailed investigations before administration of a COVID-19 vaccine.

    Abstract Introduction: We conducted a cross-sectional study to compare macular pigment optical density (MPOD) in eyes with idiopathic macular holes with bumpy (bbMH) and smooth borders (sbMH) and to assess the relation between MPOD and optical coherence tomography findings. Thirty eyes from thirty patients affected by idiopathic macular hole were studied.
    Methods: All patients underwent SD-OCT and macular pigment optical density (MPOD) analysis. Comparison between the two border phenotypes were estimated at baseline, as well as  the differences in MPOD, minimum and basal hole diameter, tractional hole index (THI), macular hole index (MHI), diameter hole index (DHI), and ELM integrity metrics between the two groups.
    Results: The mean MPOD was 0.09 ± 0.08 in bbMHs and 0.16 ± 0.11 in sbMHs (p = 0.010). Correlation analysis between MPOD and minimum hole  diameter revealed a negative association (rho = - 0.707, p = 0.008) in bbMH and a positive association (rho = 0.702, p = 0.019) in sbMH. MPOD and basal diameter were negatively correlated in bbMH (rho = - 0.77, p = 0.001) and positively correlated in sbMH (rho = 0.675, p = 0.019). Indeed, MPOD is negatively correlated with THI and MHI in sbMH (rho = - 0.684 p = 0.019; rho = - 0.665 p = 0.019, respectively) and positively correlated in bbMH (rho = 0.593 p = 0.037; rho = 0.658 p = 0.018, respectively).
    Conclusions: MPOD is significantly reduced in bbMHs compared to sbMHs. The two border phenotypes also differ for tractional and tangential indexes, possibly reflecting a different pathogenesis. Further studies are needed to understand the prognostic role of MPOD.

    Abstract Purpose: We report a case of a highly myopic patient who presented a serous macular detachment at 24 hours after uncomplicated cataract surgery.
    Observations: Surprisingly, after six days from surgery, a reabsorption of the detachment was noticed and the macular area returned to be anatomically normal without any surgical intervention. This early postoperative complication could be caused by changes in the vitreoretinal interface and ocular fluid dynamics or to a rupture of blood-retinal barriers due to postoperative inflammation.
    Conclusions and importance: Our case reports on the occurrence of an early transient macular detachment after uneventful cataract surgery in a highly myopic eye. This finding suggests the importance of an OCT-based control in the immediate postoperative hours.

    Abstract In this narrative-review, we report the most recent data from the literature of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatment for myopic choroidal neovascularization (mCNV). Myopic CNV is the most frequent sight-threatening complication of pathologic myopia. The natural course of mCNV can result in expanding macular atrophy and /or fibrosis, leading to irreversible visual loss after 5 years. Retinal multimodal imaging is mandatory for early diagnosis and monitoring of the disease during treatment. Intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy is recommended as the first-line treatment option for mCNV. Prompt treatment of active mCNV with intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy has been demonstrated to be effective in terms of visual outcome improvements reducing the occurrence of late-stage complications.

    Abstract The Tear Film (TF) is a trilaminar and dynamic fluid covering the entire Ocular Surface (OS), consisting of a mucus, aqueous, and lipid layer deeply interacting between them. Because of its structure and functions, TF plays a pivotal role in the preservation of the OS integrity and the quality of vision. Medical therapy for glaucoma is recognized to profoundly disturb the OS homeostasis by altering all components of the ocular surface unit, including TF. The presence of preservatives, the number of daily eye drops instillations, and the duration of therapy are the main contributors to TF changes. From the physio-pathological side, TF alterations are induced by toxic and allergic mechanisms and result from goblet cell and Meibomian gland loss, dysfunction of accessory lacrimal glands, and epithelial disruption. In detail, TF changes are represented by mucus layer thinning, reduced mucin concentration, aqueous layer volume reduction, and lipid layer thinning with increased tear evaporation. Hyper- osmolarity and instability represent the main hallmarks of these changes and are an expression of a iatrogenic form of dry eye. TF undergoes also molecular modifications that primarily reflect a therapy- or disease-induced inflammatory status of the OS. Over the last years, this field of research aimed a progressively growing interest since molecular variations may be considered as potential candidate biomarkers of glaucoma. The aim of this review is to report the main TF changes occurring during glaucoma, exploring the relationship they may have with the glaucoma-related ocular surface disease and the patient quality of life, and their utility as potential biomarkers of disease.
