Re: Muste et al.: Outcomes and complications of pars plana vitrectomy for nonclearing vitreous hemorrhage without tractional elements (Ophthalmology Retina. 2026;10:596–605)
In a large, 306-eye, retrospective study of patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy for nonclearing vitreous hemorrhage with no tractional component, Muste et al1 found that preoperative anti-VEGF use improved visual outcome but did not lead to fewer recurrent vitreous hemorrhages or fewer repeat vitrectomies. This is a useful clinically based data set, and the authors honestly acknowledge some of the limitations of it.

What are the challenges with using vitamin A to manage measles
Click here to read the Healio Exclusive, “Resurgence of measles spreads deep concern among ophthalmologists.” Vitamin A administration in the context of measles is a complex issue that presents several challenges. During my 30 years of working in children’s hospitals, I have had first-hand experience of how, despite decades of recommendations by the WHO and the American Academy of Pediatrics, vitamin A continues to be underutilized in the management of measles. As shown in a recent study in which I was personally involved, only about one-third of hospitalized children are treated and few with

Analysis of choroidal OCT intensity and profile changes in high myopia: correlation with visual impairment and identification of pathological myopia
Aims To investigate the changes in choroidal optical coherence tomography (OCT) radiomic features, their correlations with visual acuity and utility in identifying pathological myopia (PM).Methods A total of 288 myopic participants aged 18–50 years were included. Choroidal radiomic features were extracted and screened from OCT images via PyRadiomics and machine learning. Selected features were analysed for their associations with axial length, spherical equivalent, age and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Classification models were built using these features and their performance to identify PM was evaluated and compared with clinical parameters through five-fold cross-validation using metrics including area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, recall and F1 score.Results A total of 464 radiomic features were extracted and four choroidal intensity and shape features significantly correlated with axial length (p

Resurgence of measles spreads deep concern among ophthalmologists
Driven by declining vaccination rates, measles, which was declared eliminated in the United States in 2000, is seeing a major resurgence. The CDC reported 2,777 confirmed cases on Aug. 20, surpassing the previous year’s total of 2,289 cases. About 94% of cases have been among unvaccinated individuals. The Pennsylvania Department of Health reported two measles-related deaths in August and two in September, all in unvaccinated people. Three additional deaths occurred in 2025; these three deaths were the first deaths related to measles in the U.S. since 1991. “Compared to 10 or 20 years ago, it has

Conjunctival Melanocytic Lesions: A Practical Sequential Treatment Approach
To evaluate the outcomes of a stepwise multimodal treatment approach for conjunctival melanocytic lesions ranging from low-grade conjunctival melanocytic intraepithelial lesion (LG-CMIL) through high-grade CMIL (HG-CMIL) to invasive conjunctival melanoma (iCoM) and to propose a practical management framework.
