title: Ultra-wide-field retinal images in an eye with a small-aperture corneal inlay.
abstract: We evaluated the ultra-wide-field retinal images for a 53-year-old man who developed peripheral retinal tears in an eye implanted with a Kamra corneal inlay after laser in situ keratomileusis. The peripheral fundus was photographed using the ultra-wide-field Optos imaging system. The images had a dark ring in the center of the retinal images that moved with eye movement. Photographs of the peripheral retinal tears were taken by directing the eye laterally to move the dark ring away from the retinal tears. The retinal tears were photocoagulated while viewing the retina through a wide-angle contact lens and with the eye directed laterally. We recommend using a wide-angle viewing lens to examine and treat an eye implanted with a corneal inlay.
