Eyes and Pupillary Assessment Eye and Pupillary Assessment GFR Training January 29, 2017 What are some things you should look for? Pupil Size Pupil Shape Reactivity Tracking Redness Trauma What assessment questions may provide more information? Sudden blurry vision? Difficult to focus? Sudden double vision? Sudden loss of vision? Seeing things? Seeing black spots? Flashes of light? Any eye pain? Sudden, severe headaches? Any recent trauma? Anatomy What might happen if there is damage to the ciliary body or the nerves that control the ciliary body? Muscles in the iris control pupil size: What is the pupil? What might happen if there is damage to these muscles or to the nerves that control them? Eye Muscles and Nerves Normal Eyes Unusual Eyes Description Condition Unilateral Dilated Pupil III Nerve Compression Bilateral Dilated Pupils Midbrain Injury Irregular Pupils Orbital Trauma Conjugate Gaze Frontal Lobe Lesion Deviation Small / Pinpoint Pontine Injury, Opiate Administration Pupils of Different Sizes Irregular/Misshapen Pupils Abnormal Tracking/Movement When scanning a room, reading, etc., human eyes move in a rapid, jerky fashion. This is called saccadic eye movements. When following (tracking) a single object, eye movements should be smooth and not saccadic. With serious head injuries, eyes often exhibit abnormal tracking movements. Jerky Tracking Other things to look for: Slow tracking Unilateral tracking Lack of tracking (no control or no movement at all) ***Be sure to check both vertically and horizontally!!*** Eyes pointing in different directions Bruising Skull Fracture Broken Nose Possible Causes? Trauma Globe Rupture Protect Swelling Ice Foreign Objects One time GFD had a call for a middle-aged man who was using a power drill, and somehow the drill ended up in his eye. There’s always construction going on somewhere on campus, so something like that could very well happen here too. How would you handle and of these situations? Stabilize Flush with water/saline Discoloration Discharge Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye) Bleeding Two Conditions: Subconjunctival Hyphema Hemorrhage EMERGENCY Not an emergency Drugs Opiates Marijuana What’s wrong here? Does anyone have a story about patients with abnormal eyes? One last thing… How do you determine if your patient’s eyes are presenting normally or not? Questions?.

Titcomb, PT, DPT Thesis Chair ______________________________ David DeWitt, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ Garth McGibbon, M.S. Committee Member ______________________________ Marilyn Gadomski, Ph.D. Assistant Honors Director ______________________________ Date THE COMPLEX HUMAN EYE 3 Abstract The human eye has been the cause of much controversy in regards to its complexity and how the human eye came to be. Through following and discussing the anatomical and physiological functions of the eye, a better understanding of the argument of origins can be seen. The anatomy of the human eye and its many functions are clearly seen, through its complexity. When observing the intricacy of vision and all of the different aspects and connections, it does seem that the human eye is a miracle, no matter its origins. Major biological functions and processes occurring in the retina show the intensity of the eye’s intricacy. After viewing the eye and reviewing its anatomical and physiological domain, arguments regarding its origins are more clearly seen and understood. Evolutionary theory, in terms of Darwin’s thoughts, theorized fossilization of animals, computer simulations of eye evolution, and new research on supposed prior genes occurring in lower life forms leading to human life.

  • Eye Based Authentication: Iris and Retina Detection
    The University of Saskatchewan Department of Computer Science Technical Report #2011-04 Eye Based Authentication: Iris and Retina Recognition Minhaz Fahim Zibran 2009 Department of Computer Science The University of Saskatchewan, Canada Abstract Biometric authentication comes in play to release the users from the difficulties of remembering and protecting passwords as required by traditional authenti- cation systems. Among all the biometrics in use today, eye biometrics (iris and retina) offers the highest level of uniqueness, universality, permanence, and ac- curacy. Despite these convincing properties of iris and retina biometrics, they have not been in widespread use. Moreover, humans have more or less a natural ability to recognize individuals staring at the person's eye. So, it is interesting to investigate to what extent the eye based biometrics (iris and retina recog- nition) are capable of distinguishing individuals, and what factors are there, which hinder the adoption of these technologies. This report presents a comparative study on iris and retina biometrics based on literature review. The study aims to investigate the two biometrics, conduct a comparative analysis in a fair level of technical detail, and identify the challenges and future possibilities towards their ubiquitous use. In presenting the findings, the study contributes in three ways: (1) This report may serve as a tutorial of eye biometric for those who are new in the area, (2) The comparison between iris and retina biometrics will be helpful for individuals and organizations in choosing the appropriate eye biometric for use in their context. (3) The technical, security, and usability issues identified by the study reveal avenue for further research in order to improve eye biometrics.

  • Forward and Inward Movement of the Ciliary Muscle Apex with Accommodation in Adults
    Forward and Inward Movement of the Ciliary Muscle Apex with Accommodation in Adults THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Trang Pham Prosak Graduate Program in Vision Science The Ohio State University 2014 Master's Examination Committee: Melissa D. Bailey, OD, PhD, Advisor Donald O. Mutti, OD, PhD Marjean Kulp, OD, PhD Copyright by Trang Pham Prosak 2014 Abstract Purpose: to study the inward and forward movement of the ciliary muscle during accommodation and to investigate the effects of one hour of reading on the ciliary muscle behavior in young adults. Methods: Subjects included 23 young adults with a mean age of 23.7 ± 1.9 years. Images of the temporal ciliary muscle of the right eye were obtained using the Visante™ Anterior Segment Ocular Coherence Tomography while accommodative response was monitored simultaneously by the Power-Refractor. Four images were taken at each accommodative response level (0, 4.0 and 6.0 D) before and after one hour of reading. Ciliary muscle thickness was measured at every 0.25 mm posterior to the scleral spur. SSMAX, which is the distance between scleral spur and the thickest point of the muscle (CMTMAX), was also measured. The change in the ciliary muscle thickness and SSMAX with accommodation from 0 to 4.0 D and 0 to 6.0 D was calculated. Paired t-tests were used to determine if the ciliary muscle thickness and SSMAX for the 4.0 and 6.0 diopters of accommodative response were different after one hour of reading.

A brief review of the embryogenesis of the lesion is presented with photo- graphic correlation of the clinical and pathological findings. Case Report A 51-year-old Negro male developed painless progressive loss of vision in both eyes in the course of one month. There was no history of previous eye disease or injuries. The patient's vision was previously normal. General examination and past medical history yielded no information. No copyright. family history was available. Examination.-The visual acuity was hand movements in each eye, with left exotropia. The visual fields were full to light projection. Slit-lamp examination revealed a few fine white punctate opacities centrally in the left cornea at the level of Bowman's membrane or anterior stroma. A few areas of brownish pigmentation were present on the corneal endothelium nasally in the right eye and temporally in the left eye. The anterior chamber was of normal depth. Arising from the iris surface in the region of the collarette in both eyes was a projection of the iris stroma in an anterior and central direction.

  • Ouabain-Sensitive Na-K Atpase Response in the Rabbit Iris-Ciliary Body After Lensectomy-Vitrectomy
    Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, Vol. 33, No. 1, January 1992 Copyright © Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology Ouabain-Sensitive Na-K ATPase Response in the Rabbit Iris-Ciliary Body After Lensectomy-Vitrectomy Takezo Mito, Sei-ichi Ishiguro, and Makoto Tomai We studied ouabain-sensitive Na-K adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities in the iris-ciliary body of rabbit eyes after lensectomy-vitrectomy. Changes in enzyme activities were quantitatively investigated in the plasma membrane of iris-ciliary body at 0 or 7 hours and at days 1,3,7, and 14. The specific activity of Na-K ATPase rose to significantly higher levels than the control value at 7 hours following surgery, but returned to the baseline value after 7 days. In addition, we evaluated enzyme activities after lensectomy-vitrectomy during which SF6 or silicone oil was injected. The specific activ- ity of Na-K ATPase following the injection of SF6 or silicone oil was significantly higher than the control value at 7 hours and did not return to the normal value even after 14 days. Consensual reaction, demonstrated by increased Na-K ATPase activity, also was found in the contralateral unoperated eyes of SF6- and silicone oil-injected rabbits. The increased Na-K ATPase activity in the iris-ciliary body after experimental surgery may play an important role in restoring swollen tissues.
