Glaucoma: Overview01:25

Glaucoma: Overview

Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure that damages the retina and optic nerve, leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated. The human eye has various components, including the cornea, iris, pupil, lens, and optic nerve. Aqueous humor is secreted by the epithelium of the ciliary body in the posterior chamber and flows through the trabecular meshwork and canal of Schlemm, maintaining normal intraocular pressure. The trabecular meshwork and the canal...
Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment01:28

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment

Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Ophthalmic Pathology

Background:

  • Corneoscleral epithelial cysts are uncommon lesions.
  • They can arise secondary to ocular trauma, such as scleral rupture.

Observation:

  • A case of a corneoscleral epithelial cyst originating from a traumatic scleral rupture is presented.
  • Diagnosis was achieved using Ultrasound Biomicroscopy (UBM) and In Vivo Confocal Microscopy (IVCM).

Findings:

  • A lamellar corneoscleral graft was performed for surgical excision.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the cystic nature and epithelial origin.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the utility of UBM and IVCM in diagnosing rare corneoscleral cysts.
  • Effective management involves surgical intervention, such as lamellar grafting, with subsequent histopathological analysis.
