Osteogenic osteosarcoma of the orbit is a rare and aggressive type of osteosarcoma. Head and neck osteosarcomas occur most commonly in the third and fourth decades and have equal sex predisposition. A 56-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with proptosis on the left...
Aims: This study aimed to study the predictive role of the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in discriminating patients with or without orbital wall fracture in the acute period of blunt orbital trauma. Materials and Methods: Thirty-one p...

Aim: To compare the effects of cruciate and circular Neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy techniques on the thickness of retinal layers measured by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Study Design: A prospective cohort, clini...
Pseudopapilledema is used for pathologies that mimicking the optic disc edema. Among these, pseudo papilledema is commonly produced by optic disc drusen (ODD). A 17-year-old female patient was referred to the ophthalmology department from child neurology department with papillede...
Aim: To evaluate the long-term results of symmetrical (i.e., bilateral lateral rectus recession) (BLR rec) and asymmetrical (i.e., unilateral medial rectus resection and lateral rectus recession) (R-R) surgical treatment of patients with a diagnosis of basic-type intermittent exo...
Purpose: To compare the strength of the relationship between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR) results of patients with or without open globe injury (perforation and penetration) in the acute period of orbital trauma. Materials and Met...
