  • Treatment of Congenital Ptosis

Associate Professor of Ophthalmology, Director of Ophthalmic Plastic and Orbital Surgery, Oculoplastics Fellowship Director, Queen’s University, Kingston, Canada; 1st Medical Faculty, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Congenital ptosis is an abnormally low position of the upper eyelid, with respect to the visual axis in the primary gaze. It can be present at birth or manifest itself during the first year of life and can be bilateral or unilateral. Additionally, it may be an isolated finding or part of a constellation of signs of a specific syndrome or systemic associations. Depending on how much it interferes with the visual axis, it may be considered as a functional or a cosmetic condition. In childhood, functional ptosis can lead to deprivation amblyopia and astigmatism and needs to be treated. However, even mild ptosis with normal vision can lead to psychosocial problems and correction is also advised, albeit on a less urgent basis. Although, patching and glasses can be prescribed to treat the amblyopia, the mainstay of management is surgical. There are several types of surgical procedure available depending on the severity and etiology of the droopy eyelid. The first part of this paper will review the different categories of congenital ptosis, including more common associated syndromes. The latter part will briefly cover the different surgical approaches, with emphasis on how to choose the correct condition.

Although dacryocystography showed a dilated and partially obstructed nasolacrimal system, ultrasound examination was able to demonstrate a mass in the nasolacrimal duct. At operation a black dacryolith was found, of the diameter predicted by ultrasound. Histological examination of the dacryolith suggested its derivation from breakdown products of adrenaline.

  • Nasolacrimal Duct Flushes in Rabbits
    Practice Tip Nasolacrimal Duct Flushes in Rabbits Anthony A. Pilny, DVM, DABVP (Avian) The Center for Avian and Exotic Medicine New York, New York he nasolacrimal system of rabbits consists of a single punctum located in the ventral eyelid near the medial canthus (FIGURE 1). TThe lacrimal sac is rostral to the punctum and caudal to the nasolacrimal duct aperture. The duct extends from the orbit to the nasal fossa, exiting on the ventromedial aspect of the alar fold just caudal to the mucocutaneous junction of the nares. • The most common indication for nasolacrimal duct flushing is unilateral or bilateral epiphora secondary to an obstructed nasolacrimal duct (FIGURE 2). Most of these rabbits present without other clinical signs and are healthy other than the ocular discharge. In other cases, the epiphora is secondary to infection (e.g., Pasteurella multocida), elon- gation of maxillary incisor or first premolar roots, or dental abscessation. Figure 2. Epiphora in a pet rabbit. Note the hair loss from chronic tearing. The A condition resolved completely after appropriate nasolacrimal duct flushes. • Treatment of epiphora in rabbits involves irrigation of the B nasolacrimal duct to restore patency. After a topical anes- thetic (e.g., proparacaine HCI 0.5%) has been instilled and proper restraint instituted, the lower eyelid can be abducted and the punctum identified. Although a lacrimal cannula can be used, a 22- or 24-gauge standard intravenous catheter works well and is most commonly used (FIGURE 3). In most cases, lubrication is not needed to insert the catheter. Magnification may help in identifying the punctum in smaller rabbits or those with conjunctivitis.

  • The Most Common Causes of Eye Pain at 2 Tertiary Ophthalmology and Neurology Clinics
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 The Most Common Causes of Eye Pain at 2 Tertiary Ophthalmology and Neurology Clinics Bowen, Randy C ; Koeppel, Jan N ; Christensen, Chance D ; Snow, Karisa B ; Ma, Junjie ; Katz, Bradley J ; Krauss, Howard R ; Landau, Klara ; Warner, Judith E A ; Crum, Alison V ; Straumann, Dominik ; Digre, Kathleen B Abstract: BACKGROUND Eye pain is a common complaint, but no previous studies have determined the most common causes of this presenting symptom. Our objective was to determine the most com- mon causes of eye pain in 2 ophthalmology and neurology departments at academic medical centers. METHODS This was a retrospective cross-sectional analysis and chart review at the departments of ophthalmology and neurology at the University Hospital Zurich (USZ), University of Zürich, Switzer- land, and the University of Utah (UU), USA. Data were analyzed from January 2012 to December 2013. We included patients aged 18 years or older presenting with eye pain as a major complaint. RESULTS Two thousand six hundred three patient charts met inclusion criteria; 742 were included from USZ and 1,861 were included from UU. Of these, 2,407 had been seen in an ophthalmology clinic and 196 had been seen in a neurology clinic. Inflammatory eye disease (conjunctivitis, blepharitis, keratitis, uveitis, dry eye, chalazion, and scleritis) was the underlying cause of eye pain in 1,801 (69.1%) of all patients analyzed. Although only 71 (3%) of 2,407 patients had migraine diagnosed in an ophthalmology clinic as the cause of eye pain, migraine was the predominant cause of eye pain in the neurology clinics (100/196; 51%).

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.
