hair, and eyes (oculocutaneous albinism) or in the eyes alone (ocular albinism), caused by defective or absent function of the enzyme tyrosinase. The most common form of albinism is known as oculocutaneous albinism. In more severe cases, the skin, hair, and eyes will remain a white color throughout life, but in less severe cases, the color may darken as one ages.

Even though there are common practices there are, like most other practices, alternate ways to fix problems that patients have. One of these…

Glaucoma is an eye disorder where there is pressure in the eyeball that can cause loss of vision. The pressure that is created is known as “intraocular pressure”. It mainly affects the optic nerve.

Babies can have an underdevelopment of the drainage system in their eye, which can be inherited, but is very rare. This…

It is well known that when socializing it is expected of you to look straight ahead and pay attention to the person with eye contact. This norm is used to control people when they are talking to people, as a way of ensuring the said person is paying attention to the conversation. This week when I go to class or when anyone is talking to me I will do everything normally, except look at the person speaking. I will look up at the ceiling or some other fixed point in the room, focusing on it and not…

to lesions in patient’s eyes is a major obstacle to the treatment. Nanotechnology provides novel opportunities to overcome the limitations of conventional drug delivery systems to reach the back of the eye through fabrication of nanostructures capable of encapsulating and delivering small molecules. This review article summarizes the current ocular drug delivery systems that are associated with development of nanocarriers for treatment of ocular disease in back of the eye. The application…

emergency that occurs when the thin sensory layer of the eye becomes separated from the rest of the eye. This cause vision changes and blindness if not taken care of properly. Proper nursing care and patient compliance is essential in restoring functioning of the eye and protecting against serious complications. ( Williams, 2011)(WebMD, 2016). Anatomy and Physiology The retina in a thin layer of tissue that is covered in nerve cells at the back of the eye. The retina is the tissue that houses…

The first thing I remember when being awakened from my surgery is someone telling me that the surgery was a success, but during the process of the surgery I had experienced a serious injury in my right eye. They told me that the tape and everything used to cover and protect the eye had come loose and all the fluids used to prep the surgical site had leaked into my eye and…

Locking eyes with a stranger across the room can easily be marginalized as an occurrence, which only holds weight in half baked romantic comedies. This particular sentiment could not be further from the truth, as gaze and gaze direction plays an integral role in our non-verbal communications with other humans. The reaction of an individual to eye contact or gaze usually depends on the mutuality of the eye contact, such as in positive cases involving sexual of personal interest, or negative…
