Midterm Pictures Flashcards
Thinning of NFL
1) surface NFL - CRA, innermost, acquires interaxonal glial tissue posteriorly
2) prelaminar - SPCA (ZH), axons & astrocytes w/ significant incr in astroglial tissue
3) lamina cribrosa - SPCA (ZH), specialized ECM of fenestrated scleral tissue, hyaluronate in surr myelin that decr w/ age & high IOP
4) retrolaminar - SPCA (medial/lateral perioptic nerve SPCA), decr in astrocytes, acquires myelin, post limit is clear 3-4mm
1) ZH
2) SPCA - prelaminar, laminar, retrolaminar
3) CRA - surface NFL
1) zone beta - “bare”, depigmentation, broad, irregular, retraction of of RPE & thinning/absence of choroid
2) zone alpha - “
focal atrophy of the rim aka notch

Drance/flame-shaped hemorrhage - leads to loss of rim tissue over time, think NTG
Drance/flame-shaped hemorrhage
Barring - “soft” sign, vessels app to be “floating” due to lack of support from rim tissue (rim thins, leaves area of pallor)

Bayonetting - double angulation, “z” pattern, supported at the edge
Nasal cupping - advanced glaucoma, space b/w nasal rim & BVs, color retained temporally
RNFL defect - true NFL defect assoc w/ a notch
top - fibers present
bottom - fibers not present
Bayonetting - double angulation, “z” pattern, supported at the edge
NFL defect
Neovascular Glaucoma - Rubeosis Iridis
Normal IOP unless pre-existing POAG
Neovascular Glaucoma - NVA, Rubeosis Iridis
Neovascular Glaucoma - Open-Angle Stage
Marked rubeosis and hyphema
Hallmark sign of this stage: fibrovascular membrane covering ant chamber angle & ant surface of the iris
Neovascular Glaucoma - Angle-Closure stage
Ectropion uvea frequent (presence of iris pigment epithelium on the anterior surface of the iris)
Anterior synechiae
