A 75-year-old physician presented with recurrent episodes of painless and “foggy” vision in the right eye (OD) lasting 3 hours. He was investigated for amaurosis and began dual anti-platelet therapy. Vision OD was 20/25, intraocular pressure was 43 mmHg, and the anterior chamber showed 2+ red blood cells without iris transillumination defects or neovascularization. (A) External photograph showed no iris abnormalities. (B) Gonioscopy demonstrated microhyphema. (C, D) Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed an intraocular lens within the capsular bag with the nasal haptic abutting the anteriorly rotated ciliary process (arrow). Although rare with in-the-bag implants, uveitis glaucoma hyphema (UGH) syndrome may cause “white out” transient monocular vision loss.

✅MOGAD presenting as ADEM with bilateral optic neuritis.
💡In children, MOGAD often shows an ADEM-like pattern with large white matter lesions, frequently involving the thalami. Optic neuritis is commonly bilateral and tends to affect the anterior optic nerve.

1/ ¿Qué dice la Evidencia sobre cómo evitar la #Rotación de las #LIOsTóricas durante las primeras 48–72 horas tras la cirugía?
La mayor parte de la #Rotación de #LIOsTóricas ocurre en este periodo crítico, especialmente entre la primera hora y el primer día postoperatorio.
Our retina image is so rich with information, a gateway to the whole body, well beyond the eye. Today add osteoporosis to the list.

Beets could have an unusual ability to strengthen cardiovascular health. A growing number of studies suggest that beets may help lower blood pressure, increase blood flow and protect arteries. https://t.co/fvYyFv4pk8
🔍 ¿Los GLP-1 dañan el nervio óptico?
Un metaanálisis de 96.829 participantes en ensayos controlados con placebo de semaglutida y liraglutida acaba de responder:
❌ No hay mayor incidencia de neuropatía óptica isquémica anterior (NAION) con GLP-1 vs. placebo.
De hecho, la tasa fue el doble en el grupo placebo (6 vs. 3 casos/100.000 años-persona).
Una tranquilidad más para nuestros pacientes. 🧠👁️

💸🚨En los últimos años hubo más dinero público para tratar el #cáncer, ¿por qué terminó concentrado en menos medicamentos?
La clave está en cómo se cambiaron las decisiones y se dejaron de lado evaluaciones técnicas. Un problema que involucra al INEN y al Ministerio de Salud.🧵
Happy World Malbec Day!🍷 https://t.co/Qeajuj3bPH
Today, April 17th, marks the anniversary of the day in 1853 when the Argentine government initiated a radical transformation of its wine industry by importing French vines. Malbec, once just one of many varieties, found the environmental conditions for a radical physical evolution in its new home.
In its native France, Malbec was a fragile and unstable grape, constantly threatened by humidity and frost. However, on the extreme altitudes of the Andes, the vine is exposed to brutal, unfiltered UV radiation and drastic temperature drops at night. To survive, the plant is forced into a specific biological response: the development of an exceptionally thick, tough, and dark skin.
