Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives01:14

Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives

3.6K
The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
Albinism
Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

Microbiome of the Eye01:22

Microbiome of the Eye

75
The human eye has a specialized microbiota that reflects its unique anatomical and immunological environment. This low-biomass microbial community predominantly colonizes the conjunctiva and eyelid margins, playing a vital role in ocular surface homeostasis and defense. Despite its proximity to the richly colonized facial skin, the ocular surface maintains a distinct microbial profile due to continuous mechanical and biochemical defense mechanisms.The conjunctival surface hosts fewer microbial...

Glaucoma: Overview01:25

Glaucoma: Overview

1.7K
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...

Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy01:16

Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy

16.0K
Confocal microscopy is an advanced microscopic technique. The prime advantage of the confocal microscope over other microscopy techniques is its ability to block the out-of-focus light from the illuminated samples using pinholes. It is widely used with fluorescence optics to obtain high-resolution, sharp contrast images. Unlike optical microscopes, confocal microscopes use a focused beam of light laser to scan the entire sample surface at different z-planes. These microscopes are, therefore,...

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment01:27

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

1.1K
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.
Drugs such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, α2- and...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Cutaneous rosacea frequently co-exists with ocular rosacea, affecting up to 50% of patients.
  • Ocular rosacea impacts an estimated 10 million individuals in the U.S., yet remains underdiagnosed.
  • Misdiagnosis is common, particularly when ocular symptoms appear without accompanying skin manifestations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the significant prevalence of ocular rosacea.
  • To emphasize the diagnostic challenges, especially in cases lacking cutaneous involvement.
  • To underscore the importance of recognizing ocular rosacea's symptoms.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on ocular rosacea prevalence and diagnosis.
  • Analysis of diagnostic criteria and clinical presentations.
  • Case study review focusing on misdiagnosed ocular rosacea.

Main Results:

  • Ocular rosacea is highly prevalent, often associated with cutaneous rosacea.
  • A substantial number of patients with ocular rosacea are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed.
  • Absence of skin findings complicates the diagnosis of ocular rosacea.

Conclusions:

  • Increased awareness and diagnostic vigilance for ocular rosacea are crucial.
  • Ophthalmologists and dermatologists must consider ocular rosacea even without visible skin signs.
  • Timely diagnosis and management of ocular rosacea can prevent complications.
