Item A Case of Transient Visual Field Defect following Administration of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine(2022) Sezenoz, Almila Sarigul; Gungor, Sirel Gur; Kibaroglu, Seda; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7030-5454; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6178-8362; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3964-268X; 35404749; AAJ-4860-2021; AAD-5967-2021; AAJ-2956-2021Purpose To report a case of transient visual field (VF) defect after coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) vaccination. Case Report A 38-year-old Caucasian, otherwise healthy female patient, presented with a complaint of vision loss in the outer quadrant in her left eye after the second dose of Pfizer (R)-BioNTech (TM) COVID-19 vaccine. The Snellen visual acuity was 20/20 in both eyes. She did not have relative afferent pupillary defect nor disturbance of color vision. Her intraocular pressures, slit lamp and fundus examinations were normal. In the VF test, a temporal hemifield defect in the left eye and a nasal peripheral VF defect in the right eye were detected. Other imaging characteristics and neurological examination were normal. She was followed without any treatment. One week later, the patient was re-evaluated and complete resolution of the VF defect was observed. Conclusion Clinicians should be aware that patients can experience transient visual symptoms following COVID-19 vaccination.Item Quantitative Evaluation of Macular Vessel Density Measurement by Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Patients with Inactive Ocular Sarcoidosis(2023) Gungor, Sirel Gur; Sezenoz, Almila Sarigul; Adwan, Noor; Gokgoz, Gulsah; Aksoy, Mustafa; Karadas, Mustafa; Colak, Meric; 0000-0001-6178-8362; 35404733; AAD-5967-2021Purpose To evaluate the macular vessel density (VD) in inactive ocular sarcoidosis (OS) and investigate the relationship between VD and both disease duration and visual acuity (VA). Methods This cross-sectional study was performed at a tertiary hospital. The macular VDs of patients with OS were obtained using optical coherence tomography angiography and compared with healthy subjects. Results Deep whole image macular VD (WI-MVD), parafoveal, and perifoveal VDs were lower in OS group (p = .01, p = .01, p = .02, respectively). Negative correlation between disease duration and both superficial and deep WI-MVD, parafoveal, and perifoveal VDs was obtained (for all p < .05). There was a positive correlation between VA and superficial VD (p < .001, r = 0.848 for WI-MVD). Conclusion OS affects deep VD significantly. Changes in superficial VD affect VA more. Disease duration is an important factor affecting macular VD.Item Letter to the Editor: Peripapillary and Macular Vessel Density Measurement With Optical Coherence Angiography in Exfoliation Syndrome(2021) Gungor, Sirel Gur; Sezenoz, Almila Sarigul; Ozturk, Caner; Gokgoz, Gulsah; Akman, Ahmet; 0000-0002-4837-7937; 33273286; AAY-7932-2021Item Comparison of refractive outcomes using Scheimpflug Holladay equivalent keratometry or IOLMaster 700 keratometry for IOL power calculation(2021) Aksoy, Mustafa; Asena, Leyla; Gungor, Sirel Gur; Kucukoduk, Ali; Akman, Ahmet; 0000-0001-8024-4758; 33733281Purpose This study aims to compare postoperative refractive error results using Pentacam (Oculus Optikgerate GmbH) Holladay equivalent keratometry readings (EKR) or IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) keratometry (K) values in IOL power calculation. Material and methods This retrospective study included 54 eyes of 31 patients who underwent cataract surgery. Preoperative biometric measurements of all patients were obtained using IOLMaster 700 followed by Pentacam measurements. IOLMaster 700 K measurements on horizontal (K1) and vertical (K2) axes and EKR measurements on 2 mm (EKR2mm), 3 mm (EKR3mm) and 4.5 mm (EKR4.5 mm) corneal zones were recorded. EKR4.5 mm value and IOLMaster 700 K values were used in Holladay-II, SRK/T, Haigis, and Hoffer-Q formulas to calculate predictive refractive error (PRE). Absolute refractive error (ARE) was calculated as the absolute difference between actual postoperative refractive error (APRE) and PRE values. Results Mean age was 72.2 +/- 8.3 (51-87) years and mean IOL power was 21.5 +/- 2.9 D (18-23 D). There was no significant difference between PRE values when IOLMaster 700 K measurements and EKR4.5 mm K measurements were used in Holladay-II, SRK/T, Haigis, and Hoffer-Q formulas (p = 0.571, p = 0.833, p = 0.165, p = 0.347, respectively). There was no significant difference between APRE and ARE values (p = 0.124). According to mean ARE results, the closest estimate was achieved when the IOLMaster 700 K values were used in the Holladay-II formula (p = 0.271). Conclusion IOLMaster 700 K measurement and Pentacam EKR4.5 mm measurements can be used interchangeably. IOLMaster 700 K values yielded the most predictive measurement of the refractive result using the Holladay-II formula.Item Familial Mediterranean fever associated frosted branch angiitis, retinal vasculitis and vascular occlusion(2021) Mansour, Hana A.; Ozdal, Pinar C.; Kadayifcilar, Sibel; Tugal-Tutkun, Ilknur; Eser-Ozturk, Hilal; Yalcindag, F. Nilufer; Petrushkin, Harry; Chan, Errol W.; Belfaiza, Soukaina; Karadag, Remzi; Gungor, Sirel Gur; Parodi, Maurizio Battaglia; Mansour, Ahmad M.; 0000-0001-6178-8362; 34725467; AAD-5967-2021Objectives To analyse the entity of retinal vasculitis, including frosted branch angiitis (FBA), or retina vascular occlusion in patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Methods Retrospective collaborative case series using invitation by email to uveitis specialists around the Mediterranean basin. This series was combined with a literature review. Exclusion criteria included infectious diseases, Behcet's disease or other autoimmune diseases. Results A total of 16 patients (21 eyes) had FMF and retinal vasculitis (FBA 11 patients, mild retinal vasculitis 5 patients). The mean age at onset of vasculitis was 29.5 +/- 13.4 (range 9-62) with a female to male ratio of 9 to 7. In 19 eyes treated with various forms of corticosteroid and/or immunosuppression, the mean initial spectacle-corrected visual acuity improved from 6/194 to 6/10.5 at the last mean follow-up of 29.0 +/- 34.9 months (p < 0.001). The most common FEVR mutations were M680I and M694V. In addition, retinal vascular occlusions included one case of central retinal artery occlusion and one case of branch retinal artery occlusion. Conclusion FBA and milder forms of retinal vasculitis are associated with FMF. Therapy involves an increase in colchicine dosage in early cases, a long period of oral corticosteroid, intravitreal dexamethasone implant or periocular corticosteroid in select cases, and combination therapy with systemic immunosuppression in severe cases. FMF needs to be included in the differential diagnosis of retinal vasculitis.Item Changes in ocular biometric parameters after renal transplantation(2020) Aksoy, Mustafa; Asena, Leyla; Gungor, Sirel Gur; Soy, Ebru H. Ayvazoglu; Akman, Ahmet; Haberal, Mehmet; 0000-0002-3462-7632; 0000-0002-0993-9917; 0000-0001-6178-8362; 0000-0002-6848-203X; 0000-0003-1513-7686; 32415655; AAJ-8097-2021; AAC-5566-2019; E-5914-2016; AAD-5967-2021Purpose This study aimed to investigate the changes in postoperative ocular biometric parameters in end-stage renal disease patients who underwent renal transplantation. Material and methods This retrospective study included a total of 33 eyes of 33 patients. The ocular biometric measurements which were evaluated were axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), corneal keratometry (K1 and K2), degree of astigmatism, lens thickness (LT), and intraocular pressure (IOP). Refractive prediction error (RE) was calculated before and after renal transplantation using the same diopter (D) for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation and evaluated for potential cataract surgery. Results The study included 15 male (45%) and 18 female (55%) patients. Mean patient age was 31.55 +/- 8.24 (range: 18-49 years). In the comparison of preoperative and 1-month postoperative measurements, there was a statistically significant difference in AL, LT, ACD, and CCT (p < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between K1, K2, and astigmatism measurements (p = 0.72; p = 0.35; p = 0.62, respectively). There was no statistically significant difference in RE (p = 0.61-Holladay 2). Conclusion While renal transplantation surgery does not lead to significant changes in astigmatism, predicted refractive error, corneal keratometry, or intraocular pressure, it causes significant decrease in axial length, lens thickness, and central corneal thickness and significant increase in anterior chamber depth. However, these changes do not result in significant changes in IOL power calculation in planned cataract surgery.Item CHANGES IN OCULAR BIOMETRIC PARAMETERS AFTER RENAL TRANSPLANTATION(2020) Aksoy, Mustafa; Asena, Leyla; Gungor, Sirel Gur; Soy, Ebru H. Ayvazoglu; Haberal, Mehmet A.Item Evaluation of quality of life after implantation of a new trifocal intraocular lens(2019) Akman, Ahmet; Asena, Leyla; Ozturk, Caner; Gungor, Sirel Gur; 0000-0001-6178-8362; 0000-0002-6848-203X; 30612749; E-5914-2016; AAD-5967-2021Purpose: To evaluate the vision-related quality of life (QOL) after implantation of a new trifocal intraocular lens (IOL), by using the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-14 (VF-14 QOL questionnaire). Setting: Baskent University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Ophthalmology, Ankara, Turkey. Design: Prospective noncomparative case series. Methods: Consecutive patients who had a new trifocal IOL (Pan-Optix) bilaterally implanted were included in the study. The vision-related QOL was assessed 3 months after the surgery in the second eye. The VF-14 QOL questionnaire was used, with a grading scale of 0, no difficulty; 1, a little difficulty; 2, moderate difficulty; 3, quite difficult; 4, impossible to perform. A subgroup of 14 patients, with an interval of at least 3 months between the surgery in the first eye and the surgery in the fellow eye, were also interviewed 3 months after the monocular IOL implantation. In this subgroup, the QOL with monocular and binocular implantation was compared. Results: The study comprised 48 patients. Reading small print, driving at night, and doing fine handwork were the most difficult tasks to perform, with the mean values of the VF-14 QOL questionnaire being 0.94 +/- 0.81 (SD), 0.89 +/- 0.68, and 0.64 +/- 0.67, respectively. Binocular implantation was associated with improvement in vision-related QOL when compared with monocular implantation, with significant differences in doing fine handwork such as sewing (P = .02) and using a computer (P = .03). Conclusions: With mean values of 1.00 or lower for each question, the results of the VF-14 QOL questionnaire indicated that patients who have the new trifocal IOL bilaterally implanted have an overall high satisfaction rate and a high vision-related QOL. (C) 2018 ASCRS and ESCRSItem The Clinical Characteristics of Pediatric Non-Infectious Uveitis in Two Tertiary Referral Centers in Turkey(2019) Yalcindag, F. Nilufer; Gungor, Sirel Gur; Degirmenci, Mehmet Fatih Kagan; Sezenoz, Almila Sarigul; Ozcaklar, Zeynep Birsin; Baskin, Esra; Yalcinkaya, Fatma Fatos; Atilla, Huban; 31687865Purpose: To report the manifestations, patterns of disease, treatment strategies and outcomes in pediatric patients with noninfectious uveitis. Methods: Demographic information of 76 cases was recorded. Symptoms, anatomic location, laterality, visual acuity (VA), intraocular pressure, associated systemic diseases, therapeutic strategies, side effects, complications were reviewed. Results: Thirty-one patients were diagnosed as uveitis on routine surveillance because of underlying systemic disease. The most common anatomic location was intermediate uveitis (34.2%). Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) was the most common underlying systemic disease (25%). Glaucoma was the most common complication (7.7%). The patients with refractory uveitis received adalimumab (26.5%), infliximab (4.6%) and tocilizumab (3.1%). The mean first-year VA was between 20/32 and 20/20 in 116/140 eyes. Conclusion: Most pediatric noninfectious uveitis cases have bilateral intermediate uveitis. JIA was the most common systemic association. The first-year VA was good in most eyes which may be due to early use of corticosteroid-sparing agents.
