    Abstract A 71-year-old woman with a history of blurred vision in her right eye for nearly two months came to our attention. A complete ophthalmological evaluation, including best-corrected visual acuity measurement, fundus examination, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, fluorescein angiography, and indocyanine green angiography, was performed. Multimodal imaging showed the presence of a polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) lesion surrounded by diffuse hard exudates in the macular area. Our patient received three monthly intravitreal injections of brolucizumab during the loading phase, followed by an intravitreal injection every eight weeks for a total of 48 weeks of follow-up. The therapy appeared to be effective for improving both visual and anatomical outcomes revealing an important regression of the PCV and an almost complete reabsorption of lipid exudates. Intravitreal brolucizumab could be considered an effective treatment in the management of lipid exudation in PCV patients.

    Abstract Purpose: To report a case of a recurrent macular hole (MH) and atrophic age-related macular degeneration in a patient, treated with human amniotic membrane transplant.
    Methods: Interventional case report.
    Results: A 72-year-old man was referred to our Retina Unit for a recurrent MH associated with atrophic age-related macular degeneration. The patient was already operated for a full-thickness MH without any anatomical and functional benefit. A 25-gauge vitrectomy, under local anesthesia was performed. A human amniotic membrane patch was transplanted under the retina through a 180° retinectomy to close the MH and eventually exploit his regenerative effects on the atrophic pigment epithelium. Follow-up was taken at 1, 3, and 6 months and 1 year. No intra- or postoperative complications were recorded. At 1 month, a complete MH closure was achieved, and best-corrected visual acuity increased from 20/400 to 20/320. Unfortunately, after 1 year, the macular atrophic area increased and the best-corrected visual acuity came back to 20/400.
    Conclusion: A human amniotic membrane was used to close a MH in a patient with atrophic age-related macular degeneration, although progression of the geographic atrophy continued after MH closure.

    Abstract An accidental injection of a dexamethasone implant inside the crystalline lens was observed in the right eye of a 63-year-old woman suffering from a macular edema secondary to a central retinal vein occlusion. A 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy and lensectomy followed by an intraocular lens implantation were performed to carefully remove the lens and save the whole implant in order to preserve its therapeutics effects. A strict follow-up over the following 3 months revealed an improving of macular edema and no postoperative complications. The injection of a dexamethasone implant into the lens could be effectively and successfully managed with a pars plana vitrectomy and lensectomy.

    Abstract Purpose: To describe a case of an infective vitreitis with an exudative retinal detachment in a 56-year-old lady who was previously affected by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
    Observations: A broad workup for infections including the main viruses and bacteria was performed. Salivary droplets, tear film and vitreous samples were collected, resulting positive only for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Viraemia and immunoglobulin M for EBV negative, whereas immunoglobulin G positive. The patient showed a simultaneous painless erosion on the right margin of the tongue that's with the lab swab demonstrated the presence of EBV at the same time the vitreitis in the left eye was present.
    Conclusions and importance: Our speculation is that a continuous use of the mask, especially in immunocompromised subjects, it might create a new route for spreading infectious oral agents in the ocular area, and this case is a warning for all the ophthalmologists that have to be aware of this threatening possibility in the COVID era.

    Abstract Purpose: To report an unusual non-iatrogenic case of central macular and posterior full-thickness retinal holes (FTRHs).
    Observations: A 60-year-old man presented with a progressive visual loss in the right eye. A complete ophthalmological evaluation including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurement, fundus examination and spectral - domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) was performed.Fundus examination and SD-OCT confirmed the presence of simultaneous macular and posterior FTRHs. A 25-gauge vitrectomy was performed and the internal limiting membrane (ILM) was grasped and peeled off around the two holes. A fragment of the peeled-off ILM anchored on the FTRHs edges was left and inserted into the gaps.Closure of both retinal holes was achieved at 1-month, and BCVA improved from 20/630 at baseline to 20/63 at month 3. No intraoperative or postoperative complications were recorded.
    Conclusions and importance: Inverted ILM flap technique represents a good treatment option in this rare non-iatrogenic condition, allowing a good anatomical and functional recovery.

    Abstract Purpose: To report a case of fully dislocated XEN Gel Implant device into the anterior chamber, 18 months after its implantation and its impact on endothelial cell density.
    Result: A 75-year-old man with a history of multiple glaucoma surgeries during the last three years presented with an entirely dislocated XEN Gel implant into the anterior chamber. An endothelial cell density reduction was observed over 18 months. Thus, the implant was removed. In the short-term after surgery, the endothelial cell loss rate reduced.
    Conclusion: XEN Gel Implant can dislocate into the anterior chamber, increasing endothelial cell loss in an eye already underwent multiple surgical procedures with subsequent adverse events. Therefore, if the implant seems displaced, the endothelial cell density should be monitored, and the length of the free-tube segment within the anterior chamber should be measured, during the patient's follow-up.
