Eyedocs Flagged corrections Flashcards
Thickness of cornea
Central 0.5-0.6mm
Peripheral 0.6-0.8mm
How to work out power of CL
f(CL) = f(glasses) - vertex distance
Which puctum is more medial?
Superior punctum is more medial
Inferior pucutm is more lateral
What tumour impairs olfaction
Meningioma below frontal lobe - olfactory groove meningioma
What is the grey line
Mucocutaneous junction - outer keratinised skin squamous epithelium
Stratified columnar epithelium of tarsal conjunctiva
Where is occulomotor nerve in relation to optic chiasm?
LAteral to chiasm
Chiasm is inferior to olfactory tract
Floor of recess of third ventricle
Where are touton cells seen
Juvenile xanthogranoloma
Recurrent hyphema from iris
Yellow orange papules on skin
Touton cells are fusion of epithelioid cells (macrophages) with nuclei surrounded by foamy cytoplasm
What does working distance of 2/3m indicate in retinoscopy
-1.5D power
0.5m is -2D power
After cycloplegia do you need stronger or weaker convex lenses
Stronger convex lenses because of indeced hypermetropia of eye from loss of ciliary tone
What is effect of against the rule astigmatism on convex lenses
Horizontal meridian of cornea is steeper
For hypermetropic eye, less plus required for horizontal meridian so horizontal meridian reflex neutralised first as plus increased

Enzyme for O2 radical to O2 and H2O2
Superoxide dismutase
Enzyme for H2O2 to H2o +O2
Catalase
Enzyme for H2O2 to GSSG and H2O
GSH peroxidase
What is the origin of inferior oblique
Maxillary bone just lateral to the nasolacrimal canal
What is Sampaolesi’s line
Pigmentation anterior to Schwalbe’s line in pigment dispersion syndrome and pseudoexfoliations
Power in relation to image length and object length
Power = 1/f2 = 1/i - 1/o
Note object length will be negative as you need to travel back from lens to get to it
