Eye Case Studies — real clinical images, annotated
A growing library of anonymised patient cases from our clinic — slit-lamp, fundus, OCT, FFA and topography imaging with the same interpretation and teaching notes we share with our post-graduate students. Educational only; not a substitute for a formal consultation.
Pterygium (नाखूना) treatment using Limbal Conjunctival Autograft in Varanasi

Viral Infection of eye specifically the back part of the eye which causes corneal swelling and haziness in the cornea leading to poor vision, pain, photophobia
Orbital dermoid
Complex re surgery
This patient was operated elsewhere in childhood for a post traumatic cataract. Over a span of several years the vision had worsened gradually. On examination we found complete opacification behind the lens. We accepted the challenge and took up the patient for surgery. Removed the lens and opacification and did an en extremely complex procedure of scleral fixated lens here at Shantanu Netralaya
Birth Trauma-Related Retinal Hemorrhages
Birth trauma-related retinal hemorrhages are small areas of bleeding in the retina that can occur during a difficult or even normal vaginal delivery due to pressure changes during birth. They are relatively common in newborns, are not the same as Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP), and in most cases resolve spontaneously within a few weeks without affecting vision.
Conjunctival Naevus
A conjunctival nevus is a common, benign (non-cancerous) pigmented lesion of the conjunctiva, often referred to as a “mole on the eye.”
