Abstract:
Purpose. To evaluate Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) as an adjunct to traditional slit lamp examination of donor corneas with suspected Anterior Stromal Opacities.Methods. Seven corneas suspected of having anterior stromal opacities by slit lamp examination were evaluated with FD-OCT. Each cornea was evaluated to confirm the presence of opacity and, if present, the depth of opacity was measured.Results. The opacity depth ranged from 82 μm to 624 μm. The initial slit lamp impressions of five of the seven corneas were confirmed by OCT. In two corneas, the OCT findings were d

Abstract:
Ocular health assessment consists of various types of examinations that aim to find pathological conditions in the eye so that it helps ophthalmologists to diagnose and provide therapy for ocular disorders suffered by the patients. Slit-lamp biomicroscope is one of the most important eye assessments and has become the standard in assessing the pathological condition of the anterior part of the eye. This examination is performed using a stereoscopic biomicroscope instrument in combination with a bright illumination source. The results of the anterior segment examination using slit-lamp biomicro

Another unique finding is the demonstration of “glittering” of the light beam at the edges of the intracorneal cyst by a slight change in the angle of retroillumination.

Examination of the optic nerve head (ONH) is essential for the diagnosis of glaucoma and assessment of its progression. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy with a handheld lens is the best method of ONH examination since it provides good stereopsis and magnification.

As a result of its subjective nature, a standardised approach should be utilised for clinical ONH evalaution, including an assessment of ONH size and careful evaluation of the neuroretinal rim contour, the presence of retinal nerve fibre layer

Abstract:
Exudative age-related macular degeneration is the most common cause of vision loss of people over the age 60 in the developed countries. The cause is not clear yet, but since Avastin is largely used for the treatment, therefore, this study was conducted to assess the influence of avastin. <strong>Methods: </strong>All the 76 patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration came under intravitreal bevacizumab injection by an ophthalmologist with 1/25 mg in 0/05 ml. The second and third injections were repeated one month after the first injection. Patients were followed up one week, one

Abstract:
Background and Objectives: Pediatric Sjögren’s syndrome is a rare autoimmune disease with a heterogeneous clinical expression and limited pediatric-specific diagnostic criteria. Ocular involvement often represents an early manifestation, yet it may go unrecognized in children due to poor symptom reporting and the underuse of objective diagnostic tools. This retrospective study evaluated six pediatric patients with Sjögren’s syndrome, integrating systemic and ocular findings with a focus on early immunological and clinical markers. Materials and Methods: All patients underwent ophthalmological

We report long-term alterations of anterior corneal stroma after excimer laser surface ablation for a high astigmatism. The patient claimed progressive visual loss in his right eye (RE) during the last 3 years after bilateral laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) surgery. His examination comprised visual acuity (UDVA and CDVA), slit-lamp examination, corneal topography and tomography, AS-OCT, and confocal microscopy. The UDVA was 0.1 in his RE and 1.0 in the left eye. The CDVA in the RE was 0.8. The slit-lamp examination showed a stromal lesion in the inferior paracentral corneal zo

Introduction: Conjunctival cysts are usually asymptomatic but they can cause foreign body sensation and contribute to dry eye disease. The purpose of this case report is to describe the presentation and treatment of an infected inclusion cyst of a conjunctival nevus in a healthy 36-year-old patient. Case Presentation: A healthy 36-year-old man presented to the emergency department for redness and pain in his left eye for 1 day. Slit-lamp examination revealed a conjunctival hyperemia and a conjunctival nevus with 4 inclusion cysts, one of which was filled with purulent material. Fluorescein sta

Abstract:
Visual acuity is a measure of the eye's ability to distinguish the shape and details of an object at a certain distance. To measure visual acuity, you can use the Snellen chart. A refraction examination is an examination that determines the type and magnitude of refractive errors (myopia, hypermetropia and astigmatism). This examination can also provide information on the lens strength needed to correct it. Examination using a slit-lamp can examine the anterior and posterior segments of the eye, which include the conjunctiva, cornea, anterior chamber, pupil, lens and retrolental space. Objecti

Abstract:
Diabetes-related eye examinations focus on detecting the impact of diabetes on ocular health, including diabetes-related retinal disease (DRD), diabetes-related macular edema (DME), glaucoma, and cataracts. Screening and early treatment can often halt or reverse the level of DRD and protect eyesight. This chapter reviews the 10 key elements of a diabetes-related eye exam: history, visual acuity, intraocular pressure, pupils, extraocular motility, visual field, external examination, slit-lamp examination, dilated funduscopic examination, and diagnostic testing.

Abstract:
Background: The incidence of allergic conjunctival diseases (ACDs) is gradually increasing worldwide. Both ophthalmologists and non-ophthalmologists prescribe eye drops to treat ACDs; however, there are many cases which are treated without sufficient examination and diagnosis of the eyes. We have invented a portable, recordable, and smartphone-attachable slit-lamp device—Smart Eye Camera (SEC). The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic abilities of ACDs between the SEC and the conventional, non-portable slit-lamp microscope.
