A

Central loss
• Nuclear cataract
• Macular degeneration

Peripheral loss
• Open-angle glaucoma

One-sided loss
• Hemianopsia
• Quadrant anopsia

22
Q

Moving specs or strand in the visions

Fixed

•Are there flashing lights in the field of vision?

A

Moving specs or strand
- Vitreous floaters
Fixed
• Lesion in the retina or visual pathways.

Are there flashing lights in the field of vision?
•Flashing lights with new vitreous floaters.
•Detachment of vitreous body from the retina.

23
Q

Red eye with gritty sensation

A

Viral conjuctivitis

24
Q

Red painful eye includes

A
  • Hyphema
  • episcleritis
  • acute angle closure glaucoma
  • herpes/fungal keratitis
  • foreign body
  • saecoid uveitis
25
Q

Lesion in the brainstem, cerebellum, CN III/VI palsy

A

Horizontal Diplopia

26
Q

CN II or IV palsy

A

Vertical Diplopia

27
Q

Problem of the cornea or lens

A

Diplopia in one eye with the other closed

28
Q

Diseases associated:

  • Sensorineural hearing loss
  • Conductive hearing loss
A 
Sensorineural hearing loss
• Inner ear
• Cochlear nerve 
• Trouble understanding speech
• Complain that others mumble
• Noisy environment make hearing worse

Conductive hearing loss
• Problems in the external and middle ear.
• Noisy environment may help hearing become better.

29
Q

Medications associated symptoms of earache or vertig

A
  • Aminoglycosides
  • Aspirin
  • NSAID’s
  • Quinine
  • Furosemide
30
Q
  • Inflammation of the external ear canal
  • Infection of the middle ear
  • *yellow-green discharge
A
  • Otitis Externa
  • Otitis Media
  • Acute otitis externa and acute or chronic otitis media with perforation usually
31
Q

When associated with hearing loss and vertigo.

A

Ménière disease

32
Q

Vestibular disease due to peripheral causes in the inner ear

A
  • Benign positional vertigo
  • Labyrinthitis
  • Vestibular neuritis
  • Ménière disease.
33
Q

Central Neurologic Cause of Vertigo

A
  • Cerebellum or Brainstem
    • Ataxia
    • Diplopia
    • Dysarthria
34
Q

Detects lesions in the anterior and posterior visual pathway.
• Two tests to achieve the best results:

A
  • static finger wiggle test

* kinetic red target test.

35
Q

Which test will you perform in assessing for visual fields by confrontation?

A

static finger wiggle test

36
Q

A difference in pupillary diameter of 0.4 mm or greater is called

A

anisocoria

37
Q

Which of the following examinations will you perform to assess for visual field defects?

A

Static finger wingle test

38
Q

Anterior pathway defects of Visual Fields by Confrontation

A
  • Glaucoma
  • Optic neuropathy
  • Optic neuritis
  • Glioma
39
Q

Posterior pathway defects of Visual Fields by Confrontation

A
  • Stroke

* Chiasmal tumors

40
Q

Occlusion of a branch of the central retinal artery may cause a horizontal (altitudinal) defect. Ischemia of the optic nerve can produce a similar defect.

A

Horizontal Defect

41
Q

A lesion of the optic nerve, and of the eye itself, produces unilateral monocular blindness.

A

Blind Right Eye (RIght Optic Nerve)

42
Q

A lesion at the optic chiasm (such as pituitary tumor), may involve only fibers crossing over to the opposite side. SInce these fibers originate in the nasal half of each retina, visual loss involves the temporal half of each field.

A

Bitemporal Hemianopsia (Optic Chiasm)

43
Q

A lesion of the optic tractm interrupts fibers originating on the same side of both eyes. Visual loss in the eyes is, therefore, similar and involves half of each field (hemianopsia).

A

Left Homonymous Hemiaopsia (Right Optic Tract)

44
Q

A partial lesion of the optic radiation in the temporal lobe, may involve only a portion of the nerve fibers, producing, for example, a homonymous quadrantic (pie in the sky) defect.

A

Homonymous left Superior Quadrantic Defect (Right Optic Radiation, Partial)

45
Q

A complete interruption of fibers in the optic radiation, produces a visual defect similar to that produced by a lesion of the optic tract.

A

Left Homonymous Hemianopsia (RIght Optic Radiation)

46
Q

Visual Fields by Confrontation Diseases
• Enlarged blind spot
•Occurs in conditions affecting the optic nerve

A
  • Glaucoma
  • Optic neuritis
  • Papilledema
47
Q

Inward deviation of position and alignment of the eyes

A

Esotropia

48
Q
  • Outward deviation

* Seen in Graves disease or ocular tumors

A

Exotropia

49
Q

•Upslanting palpebral fissures of the eyelids

A

Down syndrome

50
Q

Red inflamed lid margins occur in

A

blepharitis
