These photos of a patient who presented with complaints of decreased vision in the left eye for 10 years (worsening over the last year) were chosen as the winner of this month’s “Ocular Photography Challenge.”
“He was referred to an ophthalmic oncologist and was treated with plaque therapy and, as far as I have heard, has done well,” Casella said.
The photos were taken with a Topcon TRC camera.
As this month’s winner, Casella will receive a pair of YF series binoculars, provided by Kowa.
Submissions for the contest can be emailed to nhemphill@slackinc.com. They are judged anonymously by a panel of Primary Care Optometry News Editorial Board members.
Please provide a photo of at least 300 dpi, a 100-word description of the case including what imaging system was used and the name of your home town. Photos may not have been previously published. You will be asked to grant permission to SLACK Inc. to publish your photo.
Contestants are permitted to win once a year. Kowa provides the prizes, including one annual grand prize awarded to the winner chosen from among each round’s winners. Delivery of prizes may take up to 120 days.
