Corresponding Author: Dr.Pallavi.M.P ABSTRACT Purpose: To describe various types of ocular trauma due to different modes of injuryoccured on the same day Design: Prospective interventional study (case series) Materials & Methods: A series of cases of ocular trauma in different age group on the same day. Results: Five patients of ocular trauma were studied & managed. All five patients were males. Out of 5 cases, 3 cases had open globe injury and 2 cases had closed globe injury. Three out of five patients required surgical intervention while 2 patients were managed with medical therapy. Conclusion: This study describes the types and characteristics of ocular trauma presenting in eye department. The frequency of ocular trauma is common in males. Eye injuries resulting from ocular trauma pose a frequent threat to vision the world over. While afocussed history and prompt ocular examination are essential to immediate management, patient educationregarding safety precautions and risk reduction help to prevent future recurrences.

Anesthesia for Eye Surgery
Anesthesia for Eye Surgery Having a surgery can be stressful. We would like to provide you the following information to help you prepare for your eye surgery. Eye surgeries are typically done under topical or local anesthesia with or without mild sedation. Topical Anesthesia This is administered via special eye drops by a preoperative nurse. Local Anesthesia This is administered via injection by an ophthalmologist. Your ophthalmologist will inject local anesthesia to the eye that is to undergo the operation. During the injection, you will be lightly sedated. In the operating room During the procedure it is very important that you remain still. This is a very delicate surgery; any abrupt movement can hinder a surgeon’s performance. If you have any concerns during the surgery, such as pain, urge to cough or itching, please let us know immediately. Typically, patients are not heavily sedated for this type of procedure. Therefore, it is normal for patients to feel pressure around their eyes, but not pain. In order to maintain surgical sterility, your face and body will be covered with a sterile drape. You will be given supplemental oxygen to breathe. An anesthesia clinician will continue to monitor your vital signs for the duration of the procedure. The length of the procedure usually ranges from 10 minutes to 30 minutes. In the recovery room After surgery, you will be brought to the recovery room. A recovery room nurse will continue to monitor your vital signs for the next 20 to 30 minutes. It is important that you do not drive or operate any machinery for the next 24 hours. -

Modern surgical lasers are able to alter the curvature and focusing power of the front surface of the eye (the cornea) very accurately to correct short sight (myopia), long sight (hyperopia), and astigmatism. Three types of procedure are commonly used in If you are suitable for laser vision correction, your the UK: LASIK, surface laser treatments (PRK, surgeon will discuss which type of procedure is the LASEK, TransPRK) and SMILE. Risks and benefits are best option for you. similar, and all these procedures normally produce very good results in the right patients. Differences between these laser vision correction procedures are explained below. What are the benefits? For most patients, vision after laser correction is similar to vision in contact lenses before surgery, without the potential discomfort and limitations on activity. Glasses may still be required for some activities after Short sight and astigmatism normally stabilize in treatment, particularly for reading in older patients. -
New Horizons Forum
Speeding the development of new therapies and diagnostics for glaucoma patients New Horizons Forum Friday, February 9, 2018 Palace Hotel, San Francisco, CA © Aerie Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Irvine, CA 92614 Follow the meeting on Twitter: #Glaucoma360 MLR-0002 Glaucoma Research Foundation thanks the following sponsors WELCOME for their generous support of Glaucoma 360 PLATINUM It is our sincere pleasure to welcome you to the 7th Annual Glaucoma 360: New Horizons Forum, hosted by Glaucoma Research Foundation. This important meeting provides a unique opportunity to bring together leaders in medicine, science, industry, venture capital, and the FDA to discuss emerging ideas in glaucoma and encourage collaboration to accelerate their development for clinical use. Since its establishment in 2012, this annual forum continues to grow and provide the ultimate opportunity to highlight important advances and facilitate networking between these essential groups. As a result, there are now more effective therapies and diagnostic tools in clinical practice today to help doctors manage the disease more effectively. But, unmet medical needs remain in glaucoma. Glaucoma Research Foundation is resolute in its mission to preserve vision and continue its role as a catalyst in the advancement of research towards new treatments and a cure. SILVER Glaucoma 360 would not be possible without the generous and selfless contributions of so many including: members of our Advisory Board, Program and Steering Committees who have volunteered their time to build an outstanding agenda; our dedicated sponsors who have helped to underwrite this event; our speakers, presenters, and panelists who are ready to share their expertise and unique perspectives; our attendees; the support of our Board of Directors and staff at Glaucoma Research Foundation; and the hard working team at The Palace Hotel. -

If you find this book useful, please support this project by buying the printed version at Amazon.com. Here is the link: http://www.rooteyedictionary.com/printversion Timothy Root, M.D. Root Eye Dictionary A "Layman's Explanation" of the eye and common eye problems Written and Illustrated by Timothy Root, M.D. www.RootEyeDictionary.com 1 Contents: Introduction The Dictionary, A-Z Extra Stuff - Abbreviations - Other Books by Dr. Root 2 Intro 3 INTRODUCTION Greetings and welcome to the Root Eye Dictionary. Inside these pages you will find an alphabetical listing of common eye diseases and visual problems I treat on a day-to-day basis. Ophthalmology is a field riddled with confusing concepts and nomenclature, so I figured a layman's dictionary might help you "decode" the medical jargon. Hopefully, this explanatory approach helps remove some of the mystery behind eye disease. With this book, you should be able to: 1. Look up any eye "diagnosis" you or your family has been given 2. Know why you are getting eye "tests" 3. Look up the ingredients of your eye drops. As you read any particular topic, you will see that some words are underlined. An underlined word means that I've written another entry for that particular topic. You can flip to that section if you'd like further explanation, though I've attempted to make each entry understandable on its own merit. I'm hoping this approach allows you to learn more about the eye without getting bogged down with minutia .. -

Marcus, MD‡ *Fourth Year Medical Student, Indiana University School of Medicine; †Professor, Glaucoma Research and Diagnostic Center, Departments of Ophthalmology and Physiology, Indiana University School of Medicine; and ‡Assistant Clinical Professor, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, Indiana Visual changes in pregnancy are common, and many are specifically associated with the preg- nancy itself. Serous retinal detachments and blindness occur more frequently during preeclampsia and often subside postpartum. Pregnant women are at increased risk for the progression of preexisting proliferative diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic women should see an ophthalmologist before pregnancy or early in the first trimester. The results of refractive eye surgery before, during, or immediately after pregnancy are unpredictable, and refractive surgery should be postponed until there is a stable postpartum refraction. A decreased tolerance to contact lenses also is common during pregnancy; therefore, it is advisable to fit contact lenses postpartum. Furthermore, preg- nancy is associated with a decreased intraocular pressure in healthy eyes, and the effects of glaucoma medications on the fetus and breast-fed infant are largely unknown. -
