Aravind FAQs in Ophthalmology First Edition: 2013 ISBN: 978-93-5090-183-0 Printed at Preface The specialty of ophthalmology has developed by leaps and bounds in the recent past. Excellent comprehensive books are being brought out at regular intervals, which helps an ophthalmologist to keep abreast with times. In my 15 years experience as a residency director, I have often found the need for a concise, examination oriented ready-reckoner, which would be of use to the postgraduates to answer specifically to the point. This book aims to fill this gap and serves as a compilation of the frequently asked questions (FAQs) and the answers expected in a postgraduate clinical ophthalmology examination. This book should not be misconstrued as a replacement to the existing standard textbooks. These questions have been painstakingly gathered over a 10-year period from the collective experience of several senior teachers at Aravind Eye Hospital, Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India. Apart from the exam-oriented questions, this book also contains examples of case sheet writing and different management scenarios, which will help the students to logically analyze and answer in a coherent manner. I do sincerely hope that this book helps the postgraduate to face his/her examination with confidence. N Venkatesh Prajna Contents 1.

VISUAL ACUITY 1. Define visual acuity. Visual acuity is defined as the reciprocal of the minimum resolvable angle measured in minutes of arc for a standard test pattern. 2. Define visual angle. It is the angle subtended at the nodal point of the eye by the physical dimensions of an object in the visual field. 3. What are the components of visual acuity? Visual acuity has three components. i. Minimum visible: Detection of presence or absence of stimulus. ii. Minimum separable: Judgment of location of a visual target relative to another element of the same target. iii. Minimum resolvable: Ability to distinguish between more than one identifying feature in a visible target. Threshold is between 30 sec and 1 minute of arc. 4. What are the components of measurement of vision? i. Visual acuity ii. Field of vision iii. Color vision and iv. Binocular single vision. 5. Who developed classic test chart? Professor Hermann Snellen in 1863. 6. What is the testing distance? Why do we check at that distance? The testing is done 6 m (20 ft) away from the target. At this distance, divergence of rays that enters the pupil is so small that rays are considered parallel. Hence, accommodation is eliminated at this distance. 2 ARAVIND FAQs IN OPHTHALMOLOGY 7. Describe about the Snellen’s chart. The letters are: i. It consists of series of black capital letters on a white board arranged in lines, each progressively diminishing in size. ii. Lines comprising letters have such a breadth that they will subtend at an angle of 1 minute at the nodal point of the eye at a particular distance. iii. Each letter is designed such that it fits in a square. iv. The sides of the letter are 5 times the breadth of constituent lines. v. At given distance, each letter subtends at an angle of 5 minutes at the nodal point of the eye. 8. What does normal 6/6 visual acuity represent? It represents the ability to see 1 min of arc which is close to theoretical diffraction limits. 9. Explain LogMAR charts. i. Used for academic and research purposes. ii. This is a modification of Snellen’s chart, where each subsequent line differs by 0.1 log unit in the minimum angle of resolution (MAR) required for that line. iii. They have equal number of letters in each line. iv. Used at a distance of 4 meters. 10. What is the procedure of testing visual acuity (VA) using Snellen’s chart? i. Patient is seated at a distance of 6 m from the Snellen’s chart because at this distance the rays of light are practically parallel and patient exerts minimal accommodation.

McLEOD, E. 0. OJI, E. M. KOHNER, AND J. MARSHALL From Moorfields Eye Hospital and Institute of Ophthalmology, London SUMMARY A patient with temporal arteritis developed a variety of ischaemic lesions in the eyes. Infarction of the inner retina and optic nerve head was delineated on presentation by white swelling in the retinal nerve fibre layer. The role of interrupted axoplasmic transport in the production of this sign is discussed. Outer retinal infarction was also noted on presentation and subsequently gave rise to striking pigmented scars. Temporal arteritis often presents with visual loss, the central venous tributaries were of normal and necropsy examination in such cases shows wide- calibre and colour.

  • 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.

Clinical Professor IU School of Optometry Indianapolis Eye Care Center Retinal Vascular Disease No financial disclosures Hypoperfusion Syndrome Occurs when the eye lacks blood perfusion secondary to carotid artery blockage or ophthalmic artery blockage. Terminology debate: venous stasis retinopathy vs. hypoperfusion syndrome Why is venous stasis retinopathy a poor term for this condition? Hypoperfusion Syndrome Patient may complain of dull, chronic ache in the affected eye Photostress issues / dazzle TIA symptoms may or may not be present (amaurosis fugax) Possible bruit / decreased pulse strength in carotid Hypoperfusion Syndrome Bruit at 30-85% blockage; swishing sound Bell vs. diaphragm Definitive diagnosis requires carotid imaging Hypoperfusion Syndrome Peripheral dot / blot hemorrhages Dilated veins Relatively spares the posterior pole Ocular Ischemic Syndrome With ocular NVD / NVE / NVI ischemic Iritis syndrome same Sluggish pupil findings plus……….. Conjunctival congestion Corneal Edema 80% unilateral / 20% bilateral Ocular Ischemic Syndrome Rare! Only 10% of eyes with 70+% blocked carotids 60% CF or worse VA by one year: 82% if NVI is present Teichopsia: colored afterimages after viewing lights More likely in patients with increased homocysteine and CRP Ocular Ischemic Syndrome When presented with Question about TIA these ocular findings……. Check carotids Arrange for carotid testing (Doppler has limits) ESR C-reactive protein CBC Ocular Ischemic Syndrome Treatment: Systemic management (diet, drugs, surgery) PRP / cryotherapy? Avastin / Lucentis / Eyelea? Five year mortality rate of 40% Sickle Cell Retinopathy Hemoglobinopathy affecting mostly AA (8% in US carry trait, .15% have SS dis.) 60,000 in US: 250,000 born yearly w-wide Malaria and natural selection (sickle trait carriers and sickle cell patients are resistant to malaria) AC, SA, SS, Sthal, SC.
