Ophthalmology for Finals 3rd February 2013 Dr Alexander Ross Dr Thomas Marjot
Content • Eye examination • Anatomy • Inflammatory conditions • Lens and iris • Retina and choroid • Vascular disease • Glaucoma • Infectious eye disease • Trauma • Pupillary and visual pathways • Eye movement disorders
Retina and Choroid Retinal disease Macula Peripheral • Blurred vision/ metamorphopsia • Micropsia, macropsia Field loss Night blindness AMD Macular oedema Retinal detachment RP Dry Wet
Macular disease • Age related macular degeneration Pathogenesis Bruch’s membrane - Drusen VEGF choroid angiogenesis Subretinal neovascular membrane
Investigation of AMD • Clinical • Fluorescein angiography
Macular disease • Age related macular degeneration Pathogenesis Bruch’s membrane - Drusen VEGF choroid angiogenesis Subretinal neovascular membrane
Treatment of AMD • Dry • ?high dose antioxidants • Stop smoking • Wet • Anti-VEGF
Retina and Choroid Retinal disease Macula Peripheral • Blurred vision/ metamorphopsia • Micropsia, macropsia Field loss Night blindness AMD Macular oedema Retinal detachment RP Dry Wet
Macular oedema Intraocular surgery Inflammation (uveitis) Cystoid macular oedema Retinitis pigmentosa Retinal vascular disease Diabetic macular oedema Rx NSAIDs, cortisone, Anti-VEGF
Retina and Choroid Retinal disease Macula Peripheral • Blurred vision/ metamorphopsia • Micropsia, macropsia Field loss Night blindness AMD Macular oedema Retinal detachment RP Dry Wet
Retina and Choroid Retinal disease Macula Peripheral • Blurred vision/ metamorphopsia • Micropsia, macropsia Field loss Night blindness AMD Macular oedema Retinal detachment RP Dry Wet
Retinitis Pigmentosa • Genetic disorder • XR/AR/AD - rhodopsin • Photoreceptors
RP - symptoms Night vision tunnel vision blurred Cataracts Macular oedema
RP - investigation • Field mapping • Electroretinography • DNA testing
RP treatment • Vitamin A • Genetic therapy • Mx of associated cataracts etc
Extra points • ?Deaf Usher • ?Ophthalmoplegia Kearns-Sayre
Retinal Vascular Disease Lipid Fluid Leak Blood Vessel neoangiogenesis Block Ischaemia Cotton wool spots
Diabetic Retinopathy Hypertensive Retinal Vascular Disease CRAO Arterial Occlusive BRAO CRVO Venous BRVO
Diabetic Retinopathy • Commonest blindness of middle age • Associated with cataracts, glaucoma, and extraocular muscle palsy
Investigation • Annual fundoscopy 5y after DM onset (DRP)
Classification • NON-PROLIFERATIVE • PROLIFERATIVE Background, preproliferative, maculopathy, proliferative
Non-proliferative • Nerve-fiber layer infarcts (cotton wool spots) • Intraretinalhemorrhages • Hard exudates • Microvascular abnormalities • Macular oedema
New vessels lack pericytes • Microaneurysms • Disorganised blood supply
