  • Amaurosis Fugax (Transient Monocular Or Binocular Vision Loss)
    Amaurosis fugax (transient monocular or binocular vision loss) Syndee Givre, MD, PhD Gregory P Van Stavern, MD The next version of UpToDate (15.3) will be released in October 2007. INTRODUCTION AND DEFINITIONS — Amaurosis fugax (from the Greek "amaurosis," meaning dark, and the Latin "fugax," meaning fleeting) refers to a transient loss of vision in one or both eyes. Varied use of common terminology may cause some confusion when reading the literature. Some suggest that "amaurosis fugax" implies a vascular cause for the visual loss, but the term continues to be used when describing visual loss from any origin and involving one or both eyes. The term "transient monocular blindness" is also often used but is not ideal, since most patients do not experience complete loss of vision with the episode. "Transient monocular visual loss" (TMVL) and "transient binocular visual loss" (TBVL) are preferred to describe abrupt and temporary loss of vision in one or both eyes, since they carry no connotation regarding etiology. Transient visual loss, either monocular or binocular, reflects a heterogeneous group of disorders, some relatively benign and others with grave neurologic or ophthalmologic implications. The task of the clinician is to use the history and examination to localize the problem to a region in the visual pathways, identify potential etiologies, and, when indicated, perform a focused battery of laboratory tests to confirm or exclude certain causes. Therapeutic interventions and prognostic implications are specific to the underlying cause. This topic discusses transient visual loss. Other ocular and cerebral ischemic syndromes are discussed separately. APPROACH TO TRANSIENT VISUAL LOSS — By definition, patients with transient visual loss almost always present after the episode has resolved; hence, the neurologic and ophthalmologic examination is usually normal.

  • Nhanes Digital Grading Protocol
    01/15/05 NHANES DIGITAL GRADING PROTOCOL INTRODUCTION The objective of grading digital retinal images taken of participants in the ancillary eye study of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is to estimate the prevalence and severity of age-related ocular conditions and their relationship to visual loss in different racial/ethnic groups. Photographs are evaluated in semi- quantitative fashion by a grader or reader using a custom written Access database, EyeQ Lite (an image processing database for storage, retrieval and manipulation of digital images), and a dual monitor computer display. Among the features evaluated are diabetic retinopathy severity level, and its supporting lesions, age-related maculopathy (ARM) lesions, glaucomatous changes to the optic nerve and other vascular and retinal changes. EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS CAPTURING DIGITAL IMAGES Two 45o digital retinal images (Field 1, 2) will be taken of each eye for every NHANES participant using the Canon CR6 nonmydriatic camera with a Canon 10D camera back (6.3 megapixels per image). Field 1 is centered on the optic disc, and Field 2 is centered on the macula, providing photographic documentation of the optic disc, macula, and substantial portions of the superior temporal arcades REVIEWING DIGITAL IMAGES The NHANES grader views each retinal image with a high resolution monitor using the EyeQ Lite image processing software and database, and references the written protocol and the digital photographic standards and examples to evaluate retinal abnormalities.
