osteogenesis imperfectica -AD problem with type 1 collagen

also can be pigmented conjunctival nevus beneath the surface- nevus of ota, common in darker skinned ppl
whats a nevus of ota
its a big old nevus on teh face, its increased melanocytes on the skin and in the eye. causes blue sclera

herpetic lesion!!!

its a dendritic ulcer seen with flourescin dye

can lead to corneal scar or vision loss
what are hte consequences of keratitis and corneal ulcers
blindness
can syphilitic interstitial keratitis be treated
you bet! pen G

**can get syphalis in the cornea bc of tertiary or congenital syphilis
43 y/o woman presents with sudden loss of
vision in her left eye.
• She has a history of syphilis 4 years ago that
was incompletely treated
• There is markedly decreased visual acuity in
the left eye with deep cornea edema
• Labs:
FTA IgM and IgG both 4+ positive
T. pallidum hemagglutination titer 1:640
What is the diagnosis?
syphilitic keratitis, after tx its normal visual acuity
describe band keratopathy adn list the causes of both types
opaque horizontal bands across the cornea
there are 2 types
1. Calcific Keratophathy- and cause of hypercalcemia (hyperparathyroid)
2. Chronic Actinic Keratopathy: UV light, yellow band
what are causes of keratoconus
1. DS- superoxide dismutse
2. Marfan syndrome

Bl, thinning of cornea. causes irregular astigmatism.

tx with rigid contacts or transplant
we know band keratopathy is when there are bands across the cornea. what are 2 ways the bands can look
1. Calcific- seen in anything that increases Ca, JRA

2. Chronic actinic keratopahty- UV light damage leads to YELLOW bands
a child with juvelina RA can develop what eye lesion
band shaped keratopathy- it will have a horizontal calcific band along cornea
marfans and DS have this eye lesion in common
keratoconus
fuchs endothelial dystrophy is what
hereditary corneal dystropthy.
AD
middle age get blurring of vision bc the cornea cant pump water out

looks liek bullea, and stromal edema and drop like deposits called guttata
what is it called when you get water like drops in the cornea bc of a failure to pump water out
fuchs endothelial dystrophy
what is the stromal corneal dystrophy
its a macular corneal dystrophy that is AR inherited, blind by 30. keratin is deposited in stroma

b keratoepithelim types
keratin gets deposited in teh stroma in what diseases
hurlers, fabrays

**its a hereditary corneal dystrophy- stromal dystrophy
why do ppl get blinder as they get older
epithelium infoliates the lens with age
what are hte neoplasms of the lens
NONE
whats cataracts, what are hte causes and what is the significance
Cataract- clouding of lens- this scatteres the light

Caused: congenital, age, UV light, DM, wilsons, radiation, trauma, corticosteroids

leads to blindness nad glaucoma
can corticosteroid use lead to caratacts
you bet

often cataracts is the result of old age but can be DM, wilsons, congeital, UV light, rubella, ocular diseases
can uveitis cause cataracts
you bet!

will see poor pupillary dilation and the white lens
your old woman pt has some brown coloration (her blue dress looks funny) and she sees halos when she drives, whats the deal
cataracts


**nuclear sclerosis is common
does your eye get red nad painful with cataracts
nope, just impaired night vision, halos around light (scattered light through cloudy lens) and distortion of blues
if cataracts is not treated what can develop
glaucoma- collection of disease characterized by loss of visual filed and optic cup changes

**glaucoma causes cataracts and cataracts causes glaucoma
what makes eye fluid
cilliary body
what is the collection of diseases that is characterized by visual filed loss and optic cup changes
glaucoma

**can be caused by cataracts, or glaucoma can cause cataracts

**most glaucoma is associated with increased intraocular pressure. normal or low tension glaucoma can occur
what is glaucoma

what are the 2 types
open angle- aq humor can access trabecular meshwork, resistance to outflow is present

closed angle: edge of iris contacts the trabecular meshwork, this is problem with dilation- BLOCKED
what is the cause of 1 and 2 glaucoma (list for both open adn closed glaucoma)
open:
primary- most common
secondary- trabecular meshwork is clogged by junk, associated with sturge weber

closed angle
primary- most common in asians (common in eyes with shallow anterior chamber)
pupillary block- iris in opposition to lens when lens is dilated

secondary- due to neuvascular glaucoma
how does glaucoma present
ASX!!! make sure you are getting your eyes checked!!!

progressive vision loss, decreased peripheral visual field


**closed angle is PAINFUL
**progressive loss of vision
**cupped optic disk
- can be seen in a kid with chronic uveitis bc of JRA
whats sturge weber syndrome
associated with secondary open angle glaucoma bc junk gets clogged in the trabecular meshwork

dilated BV
whats the primary closed angle glaucoma
the iris comes and blocks the aq humor from circulating. increased post chamber pressure

pupillary block
neovascular glaucoma is what
secondary closed angle glaucoma

**contraction of membranes cover the trabecular network
which type of glaucoma is painful
closed angle

**glaucoma is typically asx
what disease is characterized by changes in the optic cup
glaucoma

**first there is an increased diameter, then there is cupping of the disc. can cause cataracts
**the retina thins
whats opthalmitis
inflammation of the eye bc of trauma, infection, inflammation,

can lead to claucoma,
endophthalmitis
eye inflammation that includes vitreous
what is panopthalamitis
involves retina, choroid, sclera

extends into orbit and causes orbital cellulitis and proptosis
can you get glaucoma as a result of scarring
yep

a scar is called synechia
whats uveitis, what causes it.
inflammation of one or more components of the uveal tract

iris, ciliary body, paneveitis

**can be local or systemic (JRA)
what are sx of uveitis
PAINFUL red, (not like the asx glaucoma)

mutton fat ppt is associated with what
sarcoidosis
candle wax drippings is associated with what
sarcoidosis
what is the pathogenesis and clinical of SYMPATHETIC ophthalmitis
RARE complication of ocular trauma. when one eye is damaged the OTHER eye sympathizes and you get granulomatous inflammation in BOTH eyes.

pathogenesis: autosensitivity to exposed pigment AG shared by uveal melanocytes retinal epithelial cells and neuroal cells
what are hte 2 AI diseases that affect the eyes
sarcoid
sympathetic opthalmous
what is the pathogenesis of sympathetic opthalmitis
its when one eye is injured nad so teh other eye sympathizes adn then BOTH eyes get granulomatous inflammation (short ddx for granulomatous)

its caused by an autosensitivitiy to exposed pigment AG shared by uveal melanocytes, retinal epithelium and neural cells
when do you see sx in sympathetic opthalmia
about liek 2 weeks

sx in the BL eye are:
loss of accomadation, blurred vision, photophobia.

tx w/removal of blind eye and long term immuno suppression
what happens in the sympathetic eye in sympathetic opthalmia
loss of accomidation
blurred vision
photophobia

**this is the disease where one eye is injured and then like 2 weeks later the other eye has this problem. then BOTH eyes get granulomatous inflammation bc of exposure to pigment AG. tx with eye removal and long term immunosuppression

pale lesion, contrast to the
nevi which is really dark brown

METS: liver
whats the most common occular malignancy in adults
mets to choroid

**the most common PRIMARY is malignant melanoma
are benign choroid nevi premalignant
nope
is a dark brown large lesion or a paler raised lesion in the eye more concerning
the pale bumpy one- melanoma is likely
does occular CA mets to lung, brain, liver, bone
liver
melanoma is what shape
spindle, goes with neuro ectoderm
