Retinal Detachment Hypertensive RetinopathyRetinitis Pigmentosa Dr. SGP
Retinal Detachment • Separation of neurosensory retina from the RPE Types • Rhegmatogenous • Tractional • Exudative
Rhegmatogenous • Retinal break/hole/tear • SRF seepage
Predisposing factors • 40-60 yrs • M:F 3:2 • Myopia • Aphakia • Retinal degenerations • Trauma • PVD
Prodormal symptoms • Floaters • Photopsia Detached retina • Sudden painless DOV
Signs • IOP may be low • Marcus Gunn pupil/ RAPD • Altered red reflex • Fundus • Visual fields • B scan
Freshly detached • Grey reflex, raised anteriorly • Folds…oscillate • Large bullous • Total RD: funnel shaped • Retinal breaks: round/horse shoe/slit
Old detachments • Retinal thining • Subretinal demarcation line • Secondary intraretinal cysts
Complications • PVR • Complicated cataract • Uveitis • Phthisis bulbi
Treatment • Sealing of retinal breaks with photocoagulation, cryo, diathermy • SRF drainage • Maintain chorioretinal apposition • Scleral buckle • Silicone oil • Pnematic retinopexy SF6 ,C3F8
TRD • Retina pulled away • Contraction of fibrous tissue in the vitreous Causes • Post traumatic • PDR • ROP • Sickle cell retinopathy
Clinical features • Vitreoretinal bands • Concave • Breaks may be absent • Retinal mobility severely reduced
Treatment • PPV • SRF drainage • Flatten the retina with silicone oil or PFCL • Endolaser • Internal tamponade
Exudative RD • Retina pushed away by fluid/growth Causes Ocular: • Inflammations • Vascular • Neoplasms • Sudden hypotony Systemic: • Toxaemia of pregnancy • Blood dyscrasias • Renal HTN
Clinical features • Absence of photopsia • No holes, tears • No undulations • Smooth and convex • Shifting fluid
Retinitis Pigmentosa • Degenerative disease • Affects primarily the rods • Affects BE • Starts in childhood, blind by middle age • Commences near the equator of the eye • Macula affected in late stage
Inheritance: • Recessive: common • Dominant: mildest • X linked: rare, severe
Clinical features: • Nyctalopia • Fields: ring scotoma, tubular vision • Central vision lost by 50-60 years
Fundus: • Bony corpuscles • Arterial attenuation • Optic atrophy: waxy pallor • Late stages: posterior cortical cataract • Subnormal ERG and EOG
Associated ocular anomalies • Glaucoma • Keratoconus Associated syndromes • Laurence-Moon-Biedl syndrome • Usher syndrome
Hypertensive Retinopathy • Simple hypertension without sclerosis • Hypertension with involutionary sclerosis • Diffuse hyperplastic sclerosis • Malignant hypertension
Keith Wagner Barker Classification • Grade 1 – Mild to moderate narrowing or sclerosis of smaller arterioles • Grade 2 – Moderate to marked narrowing of retinal arterioles, exaggeration of light reflex, changes at A-V crossings • Grade 3 – Grade 2 + retinal oedema,cotton wool spots, flame-shaped hemorrhages • Grade 4 – Grade3 + papilloedema
