lid is turned inward

50
Q

extropion

A

lid is turned outward

51
Q

entropion/extropion can cause what?

A

tearing

52
Q

difference between bacterial & viral conjunctivitis?

A

bacterial has a lot of discharge, viral does not

53
Q

If there is no improvement of bacterial & viral conjunctivitis, what do you order?

A

C and S, gram stain

54
Q

What do you see on chronic allergic conjunctivitis?

A

abrasions on cornea

55
Q

which is worse with chemical conjunctivitis, alkaline chemicals or acidotic chemicals?

A

alkaline burns worse so thats why we do PH testing to see which it is!

56
Q

Subconjunctival Hemorrhage, what is it and how does it develop?

A

small blood rupture in the conjunctival tissue, develops after straining or coughing

57
Q

How is visual acuity with hyphema?

A

its decreased

58
Q

Hyphema

A

blood in anterior chamber of eye, cause by trauma, refer to opthalmologist

59

60
Q

Is Episcleritis bilateral or unilateral?

A

bila

61
Q

Episcleritis s/s

A

no discharge, lactimation, photophobia

62
Q

photophobia

A

intolerance of light

63
Q

Scleritis

A

inflammation of sclera that can result in severe destructive disease

64
Q

Scleritis s/s and is it unilateral or bilateral?

A

painful, “boring” pain, unilateral, photophobia

65
Q

what do we check for with scleritis?

A

autoimmune diseases!

66
Q

Keratitis

A

infection of cornea

67
Q

what happens to visual acuity with Keratitis?

A

decreases

68
Q

Keratitis s/s

A

discharge, cornea cloudy

69

pain, photophobia, cliliary flush, visul acuity decreased

74
Q

Periorbital/ orbital cellulitis

infection of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue around eye

75
Q

which is a medical emergency periorbital or orbital cellulitis?

A

orbital we need to do a CT scan

76
Q
