Addies Tonic Pupil
Efferent pathway. Affected eye is big. POOR direct. Near response is slow but prolonged. will dilate with 0.125% pilocarpine. Veriform movement
Addie’s Syndrome
Decreased corneal sensitivity, deep tendon reflex, tonic pupil
Argyll-Robertson
Tectum. Pupil normal or small and irregular. NO direct. GOOD near. Can be unilateral–>bilateral
APD
Afferent. Normal pupil. Pupil dilates with direct.
Horner’s Syndrome
Sympathetic. Anisocornia in dark. Small pupil. POOR direct and near. Hydroxymethamine 1. One eye-post 1. both-pre
CN III palsy
Eye is down and out. No direct or near response. An emergency
Normal exophathalmous readings
12-21. Up to 24 if black
Diff. in exophathalmous
1-2 mm
Pachymetery
Measures the corneal thickness
Normal corneal thickness
550 nm. Must be within 5 of each other. 570 for white.
Thin cornea
Will have decreased pressures. More at risk of glaucoma as abnormally low
IOP and Pachy
Must adjust IOP by 4 mm hg for every 80 micrometers off average
Insurance and cataract
Must be worse then 20/40
PAM
PT. is dilated. On the SLAMP. Dial in ES. NO rxn. Improvement means good candidate. Smallest line is PA.
BAT
Pt. NOT dialted. Habitual rxn. Acuity will get worse with light if have cataracts.
Super pinhole
Pt. is dilated. Habitual RXN. 5 ft. test distance. Vas should improve.
Interferometer
When they get half right this is their PA. No Rxn. Dilated. For amblyopes and dense cataracts
Cataract test where you are NOT dilated
BAT
Cataract test where you do not wear glasses
PAM, interformeter
Cataract test where you wear glasses
pinhole and bat
+ sidel sign
If you put fluoroscene on and it leaks out. The cornea has ruptured
Loupe and magnet
Superficial FBs
Spud
Mini golf club. Good for embedded FBs
Polytome
swiss army knife
Needle
Sterile cheap
Alger brush
Use to clear up metabolic FB. Leave rust deeper than bowman’s.

Instructions for pt.
When to do stromal puncture
Pt. with RCE
Care after FB removal
AB, patch, tell them they loose 1/2 field
Patch rule
Patch never sees sunset twice.
OCT
Ocular Coherence Tomography
AS-OCT useful with…
Keratoconus, corneal degenerations, recurrent micro cysts, corneal scars, cornea transplant, angle closure
