A: lack of the lens
CS of eq chronic uveitis
Permanent corneal opacity, cataract, sec. glaucoma, choroiditis, bulb atrophy
Why subpalpebral drainage
continuous eye drops in horse, Tarsorrhaphy
indications: painful ocular conditions, tarsorrhaphy,
long term therapy
What is the T-shaped cartilage
Cartilaginous skeleton at base of 3rd eyelid gland
CS of acute eq uveitis
enophtalmos, epiphora, ciliary injection into cornea, hypopyon, opacity
Anterior uveitis?
iritis, cyclitis
What is the job of the uvea?
prevent leakage of proteins to the eye. vascular part of bulbus
CS acute glaucoma
IOP>25 mmHg, opacity, mydriasis, no PLR!
Cannula for injection of air?
27G
Grid keratotomy:
Only in non-melting ulcers (sm animals)
Descemetocele
requires surgical intervention
Tear production
gland of 3rd eyelid, tear gland, and accessory tear gland
CS melting ulcer
pain, and uveitis, corneal edema, hypopyon
How are collagen fibres arranged?
parallel layers
What is corectopia?
abnormal location of pupil
Glands of the eyelid
Zeiss, Moll and tarsal gland
Multiple rows on upper lid
dog
What is TSCP
Transscleral laser cyclophotocoagulation at 35 sites 3 mm behind limbus
Most common tumor in uvea?
Melanoma
How does aqueous drain
Schlemm’s canal in iridocorneal angle and uveoscleral route
Human ophthalmology sutures
10/0 and 11/0 non-abs. atraumatic nylon
Which glands produce ptf
Lacrimal gl, gl of 3rd eyelid, tarsal gl, goblet cells in conjunctiva
Hereditary open angle glaucoma
Beagle and poodle, secondary: obstructive angle-uveitis
Consequence of increased IOP
Destroy all ocular structures
Which animals have cilia on the lower eyelid
dog
Systemic inj?
Only if inflamed! AB, hyperosmotic most common
What is chemosis?
Edematous swelling of conjunctiva
Conjunctival vessels
Bright red, vessels in fornix, adrenaline has good effect
CS of acute eq uveitis
Enophthalmos, epiphora, ciliary injection into cornea, hypopyon, opacity
Intraocular tampon
Cellulose
Signs of acute uveitis
Decreased IOP, miosis, cornea edema
Cataract surgery – which one has post lens capsule left intact?
ECE – extracapsular
Anterior synechiae
Iris adhere to cornea
What to evaluate in traumatic eyelid injury
Condition of globe and lacrimal puncta
When should you not dilate the pupil
Glaucoma and lens luxation
Iris tumors?
melanoma
What is corpora nigra?
Aid in control of light entering through the constricted pupil, only herbivores
Which part of fundus is pigmented
Non-tapetal fundus
Why conjunctival cyst
Obstruction of duct of conj.gl., ectopic glandular tissue
What is conjunctiva
Well vascularized mucous membran
What does ciliary body do
Structure in the eye that releases aqueous humour within the eye. Also contain ciliary muscle, which changes
the shape of the lens when your eyes focus (accommodation)
Most important drainage of aqueous in horses
uveoscleral
Reasons for retinal haemorrhage?
Cat with hypertension, ethylene glycol toxicosis, ehrlichiosis
What is symblepharon
Adhesion of conjunctiva on itself or on cornea
Parasympatholytic effect on the eye
Mydriasis and Cycloplegia-Inhibit parasympathomimetic and cause
CS of uveitis
Mitosis, blepharospasm, photophobia, epiphora
intravitreal injection?
At lat canthus, 2-3 mm from limbus, gentamycin inj in glaucoma
Reasons for corneal edema
Glaucoma, inflammations, endothelial dystrophy
Components of uvea
Iris, corpus ciliary, choroid
Absorption after topical administration ?
Most is washed out, conjunctival capillaries absorb, or penetrate cornea. Lipid sol. best (transcellular). (Water
sol – intracellular absorption)
Nasolacrimal drainage
Only when you can’t use subpalpebral
What is the point of intraocular surgery
improve drainage
Suspension?
Drug in small particles – tear dissolve it, longer contact time
How is CEA seen on ophthalmoscope?
Folds seen as epsilon like stripes
Trichiasis
Cilia arising from normal located follicles but are pointed in abnormal position
What is collie eye anomaly (CEA)/Retinal dysplasia(RD)
Scleral ectasia=sclera protrudes into the eye around area of optic nerve head
3rd eyelid flap
