  • Towards a Chromatic Pupillometry Protocol for Assessing Melanopsin-Driven Post-Illumination Pupil Response in Basic Science and Clinical Investigations
    TOWARDS A CHROMATIC PUPILLOMETRY PROTOCOL FOR ASSESSING MELANOPSIN-DRIVEN POST-ILLUMINATION PUPIL RESPONSE IN BASIC SCIENCE AND CLINICAL INVESTIGATIONS by Shaobo Lei A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Shaobo Lei 2016 Towards a Chromatic Pupillometry Protocol for Assessing Melanopsin-Driven Post-Illumination Pupil Response in Basic Science and Clinical Investigations Shaobo Lei Master of Science Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2016 Abstract The pupillary light reflex (PLR) is mediated by intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglions cells (ipRGCs), a sub-group of retinal ganglion cells that contain photopigment melanopsin. Melanopsin activation drives a sustained pupil constriction after the offset of light stimulus, this so-called post-illumination pupil response (PIPR) is an in vivo index of melanopsin-driven ipRGC photoactivity. PIPR can be assessed by chromatic pupillometry, but consensus on a standardized PIPR testing protocol has not been reached yet. The purpose of this thesis is to develop an optimized PIPR testing methodology, and to use it to investigate clinical and basic science questions related to melanopsin and ipRGCs. Based on previous pilot work on full-field chromatic pupillometry, a new and repeatable method was developed to measure PIPR induced by hemifield, central-field and full-field light stimulation. This chromatic pupillometry system was then used to investigate a series of basic science and clinical questions related to melanopsin and ipRGCs. ii Acknowledgments I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to a number of people who have helped me to see through this thesis project.

  • Presynaptic Effects of Botulinum Toxin Type a on the Neuronally Evoked Response of Albino and Pigmented Rabbit Iris Sphincter and Dilator Muscles
    Presynaptic Effects of Botulinum Toxin Type A on the Neuronally Evoked Response of Albino and Pigmented Rabbit Iris Sphincter and Dilator Muscles Hitoshi Ishikawa,* Yoshihisa Mitsui,* Takeshi Yoshitomi,* Kimiyo Mashimo,* Shigeru Aoki,† Kazuo Mukuno† and Kimiya Shimizu* *Department of Ophthalmology, Kitasato University, School of Medicine, Sagamihara, Japan; †Department of Orthoptics and Visual Science, Kitasato University, School of Allied Health Sciences, Sagamihara, Japan Purpose: To investigate the effects of botulinum toxin type A (botulinum A toxin) on the autonomic and other nonadrenergic, noncholinergic nerve terminals. Methods: The effects of botulinum A toxin on twitch contractions evoked by electrical field stimulation (EFS) were studied in isolated albino and pigmented rabbit iris sphincter and di- lator muscles using the isometric tension recording method. Results: Botulinum A toxin inhibited the fast cholinergic and slow substance P-ergic compo- nent of the contraction evoked by EFS in the rabbit iris sphincter muscle without affecting the response to carbachol and substance P. These inhibitory effects were more marked in the albino rabbit than in the pigmented rabbit. Botulinum A toxin (150 nmol/L) did not affect the twitch contraction evoked by EFS in the rabbit iris dilator muscle. Conclusions: These data indicated that botulinum A toxin may inhibit not only the acetyl- choline release in the cholinergic nerve terminals, but also substance P release from the trigeminal nerve terminals of the rabbit iris sphincter muscle. However, the neurotoxin has little effect on the adrenergic nerve terminals of the rabbit iris dilator muscle. Furthermore, the botulinum A toxin binding to the pigment melanin appears to influence the response quantitatively in the two types of irides.

Journal of Cognition, 1(1): 16, pp. 1–23, DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/joc.18 REVIEW ARTICLE Pupillometry: Psychology, Physiology, and Function Sebastiaan Mathôt Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, NL [email protected] Pupils respond to three distinct kinds of stimuli: they constrict in response to brightness (the pupil light response), constrict in response to near fixation (the pupil near response), and dilate in response to increases in arousal and mental effort, either triggered by an external stimulus or spontaneously. In this review, I describe these three pupil responses, how they are related to high-level cognition, and the neural pathways that control them. I also discuss the functional relevance of pupil responses, that is, how pupil responses help us to better see the world. Although pupil responses likely serve many functions, not all of which are fully under- stood, one important function is to optimize vision either for acuity (small pupils see sharper) and depth of field (small pupils see sharply at a wider range of distances), or for sensitivity (large pupils are better able to detect faint stimuli); that is, pupils change their size to optimize vision for a particular situation. In many ways, pupil responses are similar to other eye move- ments, such as saccades and smooth pursuit: like these other eye movements, pupil responses have properties of both reflexive and voluntary action, and are part of active visual exploration. Keywords: pupillometry; pupil light response; pupil near response; psychosensory pupil response; orienting response; eye movements Seeing is an activity.

Oliver, CPC, CDEO, CRC, CPMA, CPC/CRC-I, All rights reserved Eyes and Vision Eyesight provides the brain with more input than all other senses combined. Each optic nerve contains one million nerve fibers. It is estimated that more than half of the information in the conscious mind enters through the eyes.

Oliver, CPC, CDEO, CRC, CPMA, CPC/CRC-I October 26, 2019 1 Anatomy of the Eye Sequence of Vision Rays of light enter the eye through the clear, domed front of the eyeball, the cornea, where they are partly bent (refracted). The rays then pass through the transparent lens, which changes shape to fine-focus the image, a mechanism known as accommodation. The light continues through the fluid, or vitreous humor, within the eyeball and shines an upside-down image onto the retina lining. The retina contains over 120 million cone cells and about 7 million rod signals. All rights reserved Sequence of Vision Rods are scattered through the retina and respond to low levels of light, but do not differentiate colors. Cones are concentrated in the fovea, need brighter conditions to function, and distinguish colors and fine details. Nerve fibers from the rods and cones connect via intermediate retinal cells to the fibers that form the optic nerve. Through this, the image is transmitted to the visual cortex in the brain, where it is turned upright.

  • Articles Intraoperative floppy Iris Syndrome Associated with Tamsulosin
    articles Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome associated with tamsulosin David F. Chang, MD, John R. Campbell, MD Purpose: To assess the incidence and possible causative factors of a newly recognized syndrome, the intraoperative floppy iris (IFIS). Setting: Clinical practices in Los Altos and San Rafael, California, USA. Methods: A retrospective chart review of consecutive cataract surgeries performed in a 2-surgeon practice over a 12-month period (706 eyes; 511 patients) was used to assess the percentage of cataract patients on systemic sympathetic a-1 antagonist medications as well as the percentage of patients who manifested the IFIS. A separate prospective study of 900 consecutive cases (741 patients) performed by another surgeon was used to determine the incidence of IFIS and the percentage of these patients who were taking a-1 antagonist medications. Results: Three percent (16/511) of the patients in the retrospective study, representing 3.0% (25/706) of the total eyes, were taking tamsulosin (Flomax) for benign prostatic hypertrophy. The overall prevalence of IFIS was 2.0% (10/511 patients). The syndrome was noted intraoperatively in 63.0% (10/16) of the tamsulosin patients but in none of the 11 patients on other systemic a-1 blockers. In the prospective study of 900 consecutive cataract surgeries, the prevalence of IFIS was 2.2% (16/741 patients). Ninety-four percent (15/16) of the IFIS patients were taking or had taken systemic tamsulosin. Twenty-six patients (36 eyes) in the 2 studies had IFIS associated with systemic tamsulosin. Sphincterotomies and mechanical pupil stretching were ineffective in maintaining adequate pupil dilation in this surgical population.
