Q

Legal blindness based upon visual fields definition

A

Visual field is restricted to 20 degrees (patient can only see within this angle of their vision)

  • Widest field diameter subtends an angle no greater than 20 degrees, meaning they can only see up to 20 degrees, outside of that they have little to no vision

Q

Specifically-tinted contact lenses for patients with color vision deficiency are prescribed in what way?

A

Monocularly with tinted lens worn on NON dominant eye
* red-tinted CL for red-green color vision deficiency
* does not correct the deficiency but aids in discrimination of confused colors

17
Q

What is the staining result of hyaline deposits in granular dystrophy using Masson trichrome?

A

Bright red staining

Masson trichrome is specifically noted for its ability to highlight hyaline deposits in granular dystrophy.

18
Q

What does Masson trichrome allow for during tumor assessment?

A

Distinction between smooth muscle and collagen

This aids pathologists in identifying tumor characteristics.

19
Q

What are the staining colors for nuclei, collagen, and cytoplasm when using Masson trichrome?

A

Nuclei: black, collagen: blue, cytoplasm/muscle/erythrocytes: red

These specific colors help in visual differentiation of tissue components.

20
Q

What types of cells does methylene blue stain?

A

Devitalized cells, mucus, corneal nerves

It is also used to stain the lacrimal sac before surgery.

21
Q

Why is it important to perform a cell culture before applying methylene blue?

A

Because methylene blue is bacteriostatic

This property can interfere with bacterial growth assessments.

22
Q

What type of cells does lissamine green stain?

A

Dead or degenerated cells

It is particularly useful for early detection of dry eye syndrome.

23
Q

What are the properties of lissamine green besides staining?

A

Mild anti-viral properties

This quality can be beneficial in certain ocular conditions.

24
Q

What does rose bengal stain?

A

Degenerated and dead cells, mucous strands

It is utilized for evaluating dry eye and corneal lesions.

25
Q

What conditions can rose bengal help evaluate?

A

Dry eye, corneal and conjunctival lesions, dendrites

Its staining properties aid in diagnosing various ocular conditions.

26
Q

What type of dye is sodium fluorescein?

A

A dye, not a stain

This distinction is important in its application.

27
Q

What is the utility of sodium fluorescein in ocular evaluations?

A

Detection of conjunctival and corneal lesions

It fluoresces under specific lighting conditions, aiding in visualization.

28
Q

How does sodium fluorescein accumulate in the eye?

A

In the defect and fluoresces under a cobalt blue filter

This property is crucial for assessing corneal integrity.

29
Q

What is one application of sodium fluorescein in contact lens fitting?

A

Evaluating tear break-up time

This assessment is essential for ensuring proper lens fit and comfort.

30
Q

What additional diagnostic use does sodium fluorescein have when administered intravenously?

A

Detecting retinal neovascularization, macular lesions, central serous retinopathy, malignant melanomas

This application expands its utility beyond ocular surface evaluation.
