Sisak I, Blumenthal EZ. Oftalmologia. 1996 Jan-Mar;40(1):26-8. Department of Ophthalmology, Brasov County Hospital, Romania. ABSTRACT: The structure of retina was historically described using light microscopy histological sections. This description placed prime importance on neural elements and their interconnections is establishing retinal structure. Of the 10 retinal layers, 7 are neural elements. This neurocentric description is, …
Sisak I, Blumenthal EZ. Oftalmologia. 1996 Jan-Mar;40(1):45-7. Department of Ophthalmology, Brasov County Hospital, Romania. ABSTRACT: In this paper a model is presented to explain the relative distribution of retinal and choroidal blood to the human retina. According to this model the retina between the inner limiting membrane and the outer limiting membrane is metabolically controlled …

Sapir-Pichhadze R, Blumenthal EZ. Harefuah. 2003 Feb;142(2):137-40, 157. Department of Opthalmology, Hadassah University Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel. ABSTRACT: Steroid treatment has gained notoriety due to its tendency to induce multiple side effects, including a variety of ocular side effects. Administration of local, regional, inhalation or systemic steroids may induce the development of ocular hypertension, which might …

Sisak S, Banin E, Blumenthal EZ. Med Hypotheses. 2004;62(5):808-16. Department of Ophthalmology, Brasov County Hospital, Brasov, Romania. ABSTRACT: PURPOSE: In this article we question a basic concept in retinal pathology, which views the retina as composed primarily of neural elements, in a single compartment. METHODS: We suggest an alternative approach, centering on the epithelial-glial elements …
Am Fam Physician. 2003 Sep 1;68(5):933-934. A 78-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes of 15 years’ duration presented for a regular checkup. Abnormal ocular fundus findings were seen bilaterally, as shown in Figure 1. She complained of mild blurred vision (visual acuity was 20/40 in both eyes), and she mentioned that she had previously been diagnosed with “early …
Am Fam Physician. 2004 1;70(1):155-156. A patient presented to the emergency department with blurred vision, eye pain, and redness after corneal graft transplantation (Figure 1, note the radial black sutures). On physical examination, the patient had a painful red eye and decreased visual acuity. Slit-lamp examination (Figure 1, thick arrows show vertical line of slit-lamp illumination) revealed an intense inflammatory …
