In this video, Dr. Pedro Acevedo describes how to use a smartphone to capture retinal images. This method is particularly helpful in the evaluation of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and for use in telemedicine.

In this 1-Minute Video, Dr. Audina Berrocal offers pearls for diagnosing familial exudative vitreoretinopathy.

Coat's disease is a telangiectatic exudative retinopathy affecting young males. SRF drainage is done for stages 3-4 with or without adjuvant therapies. Traditionally, SRF drainage is done via transcleral route after a conjunctival peritomy. In this video we demonstrate transconjunctival techniques of SRF drainage with a 26G needle by: a) indirect ophthalmoscope guidance and b) method of active infusion. Advantages of transconjunctival SRF drainage are: 1) No chance of retinal incarceration as in cut down techniques of drainage; 2) Avoids shifting of fluid as globe is not moved and drainage is complete; 3) Posterior drainage is possible under direct visualisation; 4) No lens related complications as Anterior chamber maintainer is not used; 5) Minimally invasive as no peritomy is required.

This retrospective analysis reviewed the short-term risk of retinal detachment among infants requiring treatment for type 1 ROP.
