Eyelid and Orbital Infections
27 Eyelid and Orbital Infections Ayub Hakim Department of Ophthalmology, Western Galilee - Nahariya Medical Center, Nahariya, Israel 1. Introduction The major infections of the ocular adnexal and orbital tissues are preseptal cellulitis and orbital cellulitis. They occur more frequently in children than in adults. In Schramm's series of 303 cases of orbital cellulitis, 68% of the patients were younger than 9 years old and only 17% were older than 15 years old. Orbital cellulitis is less common, but more serious than preseptal. Both conditions happen more commonly in the winter months when the incidence of paranasal sinus infections is increased. There are specific causes for each of these types of cellulitis, and each may be associated with serious complications, including vision loss, intracranial infection and death. Studies of orbital cellulitis and its complication report mortality in 1- 2% and vision loss in 3-11%. In contrast, mortality and vision loss are extremely rare in preseptal cellulitis. 1.1 Definitions Preseptal and orbital cellulites are the most common causes of acute orbital inflammation. Preseptal cellulitis is an infection of the soft tissue of the eyelids and periocular region that is localized anterior to the orbital septum outside the bony orbit. Orbital cellulitis ( 3.5 per 100,00 ) is an infection of the soft tissues of the orbit that is localized posterior to the orbital septum and involves the fat and muscles contained within the bony orbit. Both types are normally distinguished clinically by anatomic location. 1.2 Pathophysiology The soft tissues of the eyelids, adnexa and orbit are sterile. Infection usually originates from adjacent non-sterile sites but may also expand hematogenously from distant infected sites when septicemia occurs. -
Preseptal and Orbital Cellulitis
Journal of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases / 2014; 4 (3): 123-127 JMID doi: 10.5799/ahinjs.02.2014.03.0154 REVIEW ARTICLE Preseptal and orbital cellulitis Emine Akçay, Gamze Dereli Can, Nurullah Çağıl Yıldırım Beyazıt Univ. Medical Faculty Atatürk Training and Research Hospital Dept. of Ophthalmology, Ankara, Turkey ABSTRACT Preseptal cellulitis (PC) is defined as an inflammation of the eyelid and surrounding skin, whereas orbital cellulitis (OC) is an inflammation of the posterior septum of the eyelid affecting the orbit and its contents. Periorbital tissues may become infected as a result of trauma (including insect bites) or primary bacteremia. Orbital cellulitis generally occurs as a complication of sinusitis. The most commonly isolated organisms are Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneu- moniae, S. epidermidis, Haempphilus influenzae, Moraxella catarrhalis and S. pyogenes. The method for the diagnosis of OS and PS is computed tomography. Using effective antibiotics is a mainstay for the treatment of PC and OC. There is an agreement that surgical drainage should be performed in cases of complete ophthalmoplegia or significant visual impairment or large abscesses formation. This infections are also at a greater risk of acute visual loss, cavernous sinus thrombosis, meningitis, cerebritis, endo- phthalmitis, and brain abscess in children. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial to control the infection. Diagnosis, treatment, management and complications of PC and OC are summarized in this manuscript.

National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI- VFQ25) in Subjects with IIH and Normal Controls
Title: Correlation of Visual Function and National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI- VFQ25) in subjects with IIH and normal controls. Melanie Truong, DO OD Introduction and Purpose Aims of the study: 1. To assess contrast sensitivity acuity and rapid eye movements (saccades) as a measure of visual function in Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) patients compared to normal patients using the King-Devick Variable Contrast Acuity Chart and the K-D rapid eye movement. 2. To assess subjects quality of visual function using the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI-VFQ25) questionnaire and Supplement as a comparison between IIH subjects and normal controls. 3. To study the correlation between visual function and quality of visual function questionnaire in subjects with IIH compared to normal controls. Contrast sensitivity is a measure of afferent visual system. Contrast sensitivity deficit with preservation of normal Snellen acuity has also been reported in glaucoma, compressive disorders of the anterior visual pathways, retinal diseases, and with cerebral lesions.1 This test is significantly more sensitive than Snellen acuity .1 It is also superior for serial testing in patients as there was significant improvement in contrast scores and papilledema grade but no significant change in Snellen acuity.1 Visual manifestation of IIH can also include parafoveal deficits. This can lead to deficits in spatial frequency contrast sensitivity.1 Contrast sensitivity is abnormal initially and improved with regression of papilledema.2 Since decisions on therapy in IIH are based on the presence and change in visual function, assessing visual acuities is not the most accurate measure of visual status in IIH. -

Orbital Imaging in Thyroid-Related Orbitopathy
Orbital imaging in thyroid-related orbitopathy Christopher Lo, MD, Shoaib Ugradar, MD, and Daniel Rootman, MD, MS SUMMARY A broad understanding of the different imaging modalities used to assess the physiologic changes seen in Graves’ orbitopathy complement clinical examination. Subtle applications of radiographic imaging techniques allow for a better understanding of the overall physiology of the orbit, quantify progression of disease, and differentiate it from orbital diseases with overlapping features. A nuanced approach to interpreting imaging features may allow us to delineate inactive from active thyroid eye disease, and advances within this field may arm clinicians with the ability to better predict and prevent dysthyroid optic neuropathy.

Increase of Central Foveal and Temporal Choroidal Thickness in Patients with Inactive Thyroid Eye Disease Joohyun Kim, Sumin Yoon and Sehyun Baek*
Kim et al. BMC Ophthalmology (2021) 21:32 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12886-021-01804-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Increase of central foveal and temporal choroidal thickness in patients with inactive thyroid eye disease Joohyun Kim, Sumin Yoon and Sehyun Baek* Abstract Background: In this study, we aimed to compare the choroidal thickness between a group of Korean patients with inactive thyroid eye disease (TED) and a control group of Korean patients and to analyze the variables affecting choroidal thickness. Methods: Patients diagnosed with inactive TED and without TED who underwent optical coherence tomography and axial length measurements were included and classified into the TED group and control group. Choroidal thickness was measured using images acquired in enhanced depth imaging (EDI) mode by cirrus HD-OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec Inc., Dublin, CA, UAS) at the central fovea and points 1.5 mm nasal and 1.5 mm temporal from the central fovea using a caliper tool provided by OCT software. Results: The mean central foveal choroidal thickness was 294.2 ± 71.4 µm and 261.1 ± 47.4 µm in the TED and control groups, respectively, while the mean temporal choroidal thickness was 267.6 ± 67.5 µm and 235.7 ± 41.3 µm in the TED and control groups, respectively, showing significant differences between the two groups (P = 0.011, P = 0.008). The mean nasal choroidal thickness was 232.1 ± 71.7 µm and 221.1 ± 59.9 µm in the TED and control groups, respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.421).
