Uveitis main finding

Answer 1

Photophobia - inflammatory condition, inflammation of the iris muscles hence difficulty in accommodation

Question 2

Acute glaucoma - headache due to raised IOP, reduced visual acuity due to stuff in eye?

Question 3

Do you get headaches with corneal ulcer

Question 5

Occlusions in the retina causing sudden vision problems.

Answer 5

Optic disc to fovea - cilioretinal vein
Central retinal vein - all eye would be congested, so you get a bloody retina completely
Central retinal artery - no blood supply to the eye - would be pale
BRAO - half would look pale, other half normal
BRVO - blood in half of

Bloody retina = vein occlusion because the artery keeps pumping but there is a block in the vein so it leaks out instead.
Pale = artery occlusion so no blood supply to the retina

Branch = half the eye
Central - whole

Question 6

Where is the cilioretinal vein?

Answer 6

Optic disc to fovea

Question 7

Visual disturbance, flashing lights, floaters, loss of vision, histroy of hypertension

Retinal detachment - correct answer

Vitrous hameohage - pt would see red

Central artery vein occlusion - half black vision
Central reintal artery occlusion - complete blindness in the eye

Question 8

65 yr old, painful red and watery eye for 3 days, visual acuity reduced.

Answer 8

Conjunctivitis normally you’d just give chloramphenicol, but if reduction in visual acuity you refer for emergency same day as it lead to conjunctivital adhesions

Question 9

Are floaters normal?

Answer 9

Yes it’s a natural maturing process of the eye - aggregation of the vitreous
Only worry if it is increasing in number, frequency or size
