what conditions is tilted disc syndrome seen in?
Crouzon and Apert syndromes
Crouzon syndrome inheritance and what is it and to how to treat it?
AD
results in proptosis b/c of :
shallow ocular orbits,
maxillary hypoplasia
abnormal craniofacial formation,
hypertelorism
potential strabismus
treat the exposure keratopathy
what is Oculoglandular syndrome ?
unilateral follicular conjunctivitis + lymphadenopathy on the same side as affected eye
what is Sjogren’s ? what is it associated with?
dry eye and dry mouth, either from destruction tear and salivary glands, or from infiltration with lymphocytes.
It is associated with autoimmune diseases of the rheumatic or collagen vascular variety.
what VF defect is seen in those with tilted disc syndrome?
bilateral superior and temporal
what ocular anomaly is associated with a tilted disc?
sinus inversus
what is situs inverses?
retinal blood vessels emerge from the disc and first go nasally before going to their natural destination
when performing direct opthalmoscopy. How will the refractive error of the patient (if left uncorrected) alter the image?
pt’s RE:
OD: - 7.00 -1.25 x175
OS: -6.75 -1.00 x 174
magnification = power of the eye (D) / 4
60 D of power in eye
myopes add power
hyperopes remove power
60+7 = 67
67/4 = 16.75x
what is the average axial length?
24 mm
how does an increase in axial length affect power in the eye?
1mm increase causes a myopic shift of 2.5 D
if hyperopic patient, the axial length would shorten theoretically
what refractive power is associated with those with tilted discs?
myope
what type of lens do you give a patient who is bothered by fluorescent light?
rose tint + AR coating
what is the best way to prescribe prism in aspheric glasses?
grind them in
pincushion
edges less magnified
distortion due to plus lenses
barrel
edges more magnified
distortion due to minus lenses
what are aspheric lenses? what type of coating must you have with it?
must have anti-glare coating with it
they have abase curve that changes progressively form the center to the edge of the lens.
makes them thinner and lighter
(+) lenses - flatten to periphery
(-) lenses steepen to periphery
What is this?
herpes Zoster keratitis
- no terminal end bulbs, because more tapered , more infiltrative
how to differentiate from herpes simplex vs herpes zoster?
zoster - shingles (Varicella virus) - located at one dermatome on one side of the body
- dendritic lesions stain with both NaFL + rose bengal
- more infiltrate vs. ulcerative
HSV - becomes active during stress, everyone is exposed to it. Uni follicles + lymph + decreased corneal sensitivity + skin vesicles
- bulbs stain with rose bengal and main part stains with NaFl
what does Behçet’s disease cause?

what is one and a half syndrome ?
bilateral condition where one eye can’t move laterally at all
other eye can only move out (with nystagmus upon abduction - contra to the lesion)
convergence is spared
ex. right side lesion
- both eyes can’t look right, but OS can look left , with left beat nystagmus

clavulanic acid + amoxicillin = augmentin
what is this?
posterior embryotoxin = prominent and anteriorly displaced schwalbe’s line
what is this?
agenfeld anomaly = peripheral iris strands attached to the posterior embryotoxcin
what complication is axenfeld anomaly associated with?
glaucoma
what is Rieger anomaly ?
axenfold anomaly + iris thinning _ corectopia (displaced pupil)
what is Peter’s anomaly
central corneal opacity + iris strands adhering to the opacity margin -> looks like a donut
what is antimetropia?
one eye is myopic and the other is hyperopic
what is aniseikonia? Symptoms
size difference of perceived images between the eyes
will be symptomatic - HA, diplopia, dim vision, nausea etc.
what is the racial predilection for posterior embyotoxin?
none
how do you measure the trifocal segment height for glasses?
lower edge of the pupil margin - 1 mm
how should you measure add power in glasses
Turn the glasses around backward. remeasure distance sphere power at a point above the optical center and them measure the sphere power through the near segment
abbe values of polycarbonate
30
abbe value of trivex
43-45
abbe value of Cr-39
58
abbe value of crown glass
58
what is Charles Bonnet syndrome?
see hallucinations - nonthreatening , know not real
most common hallucination = smiley faces
blink a lot to clear the faces
what ocular condition has the highest association with Charles bonnet?
age-related macular degeneration
what is this?
angioid streaks
conditions causing angioid streaks
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (most common)
Ehler-Danlos syndrome,
Paget’s disease of bone,
Sickle cell disease
Idiopathic
what is the pathophys of angioid streaks?
small dehiscences in the collagenous and elastic portions of Bruch’s membrane
what are common ocular findings associated with angioid streaks?
peau d’ orange
optic disc drusen
how do you treat/ manage angioid streaks?
FA
acids vs alkaline burns pathophys
alkaline burns occur more often and continue to penetrate the cornea after the initial trauma.
acidic burns - coagulate protein and the epithelium
corneal treatment post chemical burn
- irritate with saline
- cyclo for pain (NO phenyl because of vasoconstriction)
- antibiotic
- steroid - to decrease inflammation
in severe cases can use:
ascorbic acid - promotes collagen growth
citric acid - decreases inflammation
tetracyclines - decrease inflammation and ulceration
aspirin contraindications
any GI issues , can increase GI bleeding
how to calculate seg inset?
(Patient’s distance PD - near PD )/2
how to calculate minimal blank size
(frame pd - patient’s pd) + ED
hand neutralization
plus lens spherical = against motion
- need minus lens to neutralize
minus lens spherical = with motion
when sphere is neutralized - then will see no motion
same for cylinder
how to determine if prescription glasses you are wearing are polarized ?
place in front of a liquid crystal display - ex. phone, tv - when oriented perpendicular - should blacken out
how to insert a lens into a polycarbonate frame
- cannot heat frame!
- insert temporal first, then nasal from front of the frame
what frames cannot be heated?
polyamide
copolyamide
carbon fiber graphite
polycarbonate
what causes toxocariasis ?
round worm found in puppy poop
what is Gilbert’s syndrome and how does it affect the eyes?

corticosteroids
what is toxoplasmosis treatment?
pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine + corticosteroids (treated in immunocompromised patients
note not everyone needs to be treating - self limiting

what is iridodonesis?
caused by ruptured/damaged zones leading to lens lents movement and quivering or the iris

movement/ vibration of the lens
how do you treat lens subluxation and symptoms?
- monitor usually unless causes high astigmatism, diplopia monocular, glaucoma or inflammation
- glasses to neutralize astigmatism
opaque iris cls - prism ballast soft lens with a decentered pupil
- rarely - pilo

what causes a pupil sparing CN 3 palsy?
microvascular disease - HTN, DM
CN 3 anatomy
pupil fibers located superior medial
compression/anurysm -> pupil involving CN 3 palsy b/c of location of pupil fibers
vasa nervous fibers -> do not contain pupillary fibers -> affected by microvascular disease (HTN/DM)
CN3 palsy treatment
monitor if not pupil involving -> resolution typically can occur w/o treatment
