机械性眼外伤患者临床分析

目的:探讨机械性眼外伤住院患者的特点及预后的影响因素.方法:回顾性分析2011-01/2016-01孝感市中心医院收治的眼外伤住院患者260例286眼,调查其社会学和临床病例资料,将可能影响视力恢复的因素包括性别、年龄、职业、受伤原因、致伤性质、就诊时间以及入院时视力损伤程度等进行单因素分析,然后进行非条件多因素Logistic回归分析.结果:眼外伤患者以男性、中青年多见;致伤原因为锐器伤多见;致伤性质中以眼球贯通伤最为多见.单因素分析显示受伤原因、致伤性质、就诊时间以及入院时视力损伤程度与患者预后视力恢复有关.Logistic多因素回归分析显示患者入院时视力和眼球钝挫伤是视力恢复的独立危险因素.结论:眼外伤是单眼致盲的主要原因,患者入院时视力和眼球钝挫伤与预后密切相关.眼外伤预防为主,需尽早治疗,应在劳动和生活中开展针对性预防干预措施.     

眼内异物伤眼内炎的临床观察

目的:探讨眼内异物伤眼内炎的感染因素、诊治情况.方法:收集256例眼内异物伤中42例发生眼内炎病例,从致病因素、微生物学检测及诊断治疗进行回顾性分析.结果:眼内异物伤眼内炎发生率为16.4%.眼后节异物及合并外伤性白内障的眼内异物伤是眼内炎发生的危险因素(P＜0.05).眼内异物伤Ⅰ期给予玻璃体腔注射盐酸去甲万古霉素及头孢他啶可以减少眼内炎的发生率(P<0.05).异物性质及大小、取出时间及伤口情况对眼内炎发生率无明显影响(P＞0.05).眼内异物伤眼内炎手术分级Ⅲ级最多.玻璃体切除手术是治疗眼内炎的主要手术方式.结论:眼后节异物伤及合并外伤性白内障的眼内异物伤是眼内炎发生的危险因素,Ⅰ期手术需处理白内障时尽量保留完整的晶状体后囊膜.建议眼后节异物伤Ⅰ期行玻璃体腔注射万古霉素及头孢他啶.一旦确诊眼内炎,尽早进行玻璃体切除手术.     

Ocular prosthesis incorporating IPS e-max press scleral veneer and a literature review on non-integrated ocular prosthesis

The article highlights a new method for the fabrication of an ocular prosthesis by the incorporation of a ceramic scleral veneer. The steps of fabrication include impression making, wax try-in, performing a “cut-back” on a selected stock eye, insertion of the IPS e-max press scleral veneer, finishing and insertion. It also includes a detailed review on non-integrated ocular prostheses.     

[In Press] Influence of corneal power on circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and optic nerve head measurements by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography

AIM: To evaluate the influence of corneal power on circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cpRNFL) and optic nerve head (ONH) measurements by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS: Twenty-five eyes of 25 healthy participants (mean age 23.6±3.6y) were imaged by SD-OCT (3D OCT-2000, Topcon) using horizontal raster scans. Disposable soft contact lenses (1-day Acuvue; Johnson & Johnson Vision Care) of different powers (from ?11 to +5 diopters including 0 diopter) were worn to induce 2-diopter changes in corneal power. Differences in the cpRNFL and ONH measurements per diopter of change in corneal power were analyzed. RESULTS: As corneal power increased by 1 diopter, total and quadrant cpRNFL thicknesses, except for the nasal sector, decreased by ?0.19 to ?0.32 μm (P<0.01). Furthermore, the disc, cup, and rim areas decreased by ?0.017, ?0.007, and ?0.015 mm2, respectively (P<0.001); the cup and rim volumes decreased by ?0.0013 and ?0.006 mm3, respectively (P<0.01); and the vertical and horizontal disc diameters decreased by ?0.006 and ?0.007 mm, respectively (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: For more precise OCT imaging, the ocular magnification should be corrected by considering both the axial length and corneal power. However, the effect of corneal power changes on cpRNFL thickness and ONH topography are small when compared with those of the axial length.     

Clinical Features and Complications of the HLA-B27-associated Acute Anterior Uveitis: A Metanalysis

In this article, we report a literature-based metanalysis we have conducted to outline the clinical features of the HLA-B27 Acute Anterior Uveitis (AAU). The examined material was based on observational studies in which participants were affected by Acute Anterior Uveitis and divided into HLA B27+ and HLA B27–. We performed a search on articles with the words “HLA B27 uveitis” dated before May 2014. Among these, 29 articles were selected for a second review. After a further evaluation, 22 articles were analyzed. The clinical characteristics studied in the metanalysis were: (1) systemic disease; (2) sex distribution; (3) laterality; (4) visual acuity; (5) hypopion; (6) anterior chamber’s fibrin; (7) elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) during inflammation; (8) glaucoma; (9) posterior synechiae; (10) cataract; (11) cystoid macular edema; (12) papillitis. We have calculated a relative risk (RR) for each outcome measured. The results obtained remark some of the peculiar features linked to the HLA B27 Acute Anterior Uveitis, such as strong association with ankylosing spondylitis (RR = 6.80) and systemic diseases (RR = 9.9), male prevalence (RR = 1.2), unilateral (RR = 1.1) or alternating bilateral (RR = 2.2) involvement, hypopion (RR = 5.5), fibrinous reaction and even papillitis (R = 7.7). Simultaneous bilateral (RR = 0.3) AAU is more frequent in HLA-B27 negative form. We report higher risk of elevated IOP and glaucoma (RR = 0.6) in B27– Acute Anterior Uveitis. No significant difference between HLA B 27 positive and negative AAU was observed according to final visual acuity and complications such as posterior synechiae, cataract, and maculare edema. We trust that this will inform on the clinical evaluation and therapeutic decision in addressing a still ill-defined ophthalmologic condition.     

Cataracts after Low-Dose Radiotherapy for Lymphoproliferative Disease of the Ocular Adnexa

Purpose: To investigate the interval between low-dose radiotherapy and radiation-induced cataracts, and the factors affecting this interval, in patients with lymphoproliferative disease of the ocular adnexa. Methods: A retrospective case series of 73 eyes of 59 patients who underwent radiotherapy from 1996 to 2005 with total doses ranging from 24 to 30 Gy was conducted. We investigated the relationships between the radiation-associated cataract formation intervals and age, gender, diabetes, and the use of corticosteroids. Results: The mean interval was 36 months. None of the patients with lens shield developed cataracts. Age was inversely and significantly and gender was not significantly associated with the interval from first radiotherapy to cataract occurrence. The intervals did not differ significantly according to the presence of diabetes and corticosteroid therapy. Conclusions: The mean interval from the start of radiation therapy to radiation-related cataract formation was 36 months and age was a significant factor affecting this interval.     

Skew Deviation: Case Report and Review of the Literature

Objective: To present a patient with a sudden onset ocular tilt reaction (OTR) and review recent knowledge and evolving insights of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of skew deviation and OTR. Methods: A middle-aged hypertensive man who had previously suffered stroke with good recovery presented with sudden-onset double vision, slurred speech, ataxia, and a head tilt. Romberg test was positive. The patient denied having disturbances of visual acuity, eye pain, or recent trauma. The right eyeball was pushed upward. The patient complained of double vision in any gaze direction. Movements of the extraocular muscles (EOMs) in the horizontal plane were normal, whereas vertical version and convergence were not possible. We administered a Hess-Lancaster test, cover test, fundoscopic examination, Parks-Bielschowsky three-step test, upright-supine test, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), transcranial doppler (TCD) ultrasonography, electrocardiogram (ECG), Holter monitor (24 h), and echocardiography. Results: The Hess-Lancaster test showed superior rectus muscle and inferior obliquus muscle palsy to the left and rectus inferior muscle and superior obliquus muscle palsy to the right. The right eyeball fell behind when looking downward and the left eyeball when looking upward. Cover alternating test was positive from vertical, R/L. Examination of the ocular fundus showed incyclotorsion of elevated right eye and excyclotorsion of depressed eye. The Parks-Bielschowsky three-step test was negative. A brain MRI with gadolinium revealed a small zone of diffusion restriction in the medial portion of the right cerebral peduncle and right thalamus. There was a gradual improvement in the patient’s neurological status following treatment. Conclusion: Skew deviation, a not uncommon clinical condition, should be promptly recognized when binocular vertical diplopia cannot be interpreted by trochlearis and oculomotor nerve lesion, myasthenia gravis, or orbital pathology. Maddox rod, cover test, Parks-Bielschowsky three-step, and other tests should help to establish the diagnosis. The prognosis depends on etiology, but it is commonly favorable; the majority of patients recover spontaneously after less than a year. More invasive management options should be discussed thereafter.
