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...

Arboviral Encephalitis01:25

Arboviral Encephalitis

42
Arboviral encephalitis refers to brain inflammation caused by arthropod-borne viruses, particularly those transmitted through mosquito vectors. Among these, West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, is a significant public health concern. WNV is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus. Human infection typically begins when an infected mosquito introduces the virus into the dermis during feeding. The primary transmission cycle involves birds as amplifying hosts...

Viral Meningitis01:18

Viral Meningitis

137
Viral meningitis is the most common form of meningitis and is often referred to as aseptic meningitis to indicate the absence of bacterial involvement. It is generally milder than bacterial meningitis, with symptoms including fever, headache, stiff neck, drowsiness, nausea, photophobia, and vomiting. Rarely, more severe manifestations or death may occur. Common causative agents include enteroviruses, particularly coxsackie A and B viruses and echoviruses, all members of the Enterovirus genus...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Optic perineuritis (OPN) can be a manifestation of Behçet disease (BD), often presenting with rapid, severe vision loss. While recovery is limited with corticosteroids, OPN in BD has a lower relapse rate compared to idiopathic cases.

Area of Science:

  • Neuro-ophthalmology
  • Autoimmune diseases

Background:

  • Optic perineuritis (OPN) is an uncommon optic neuropathy.
  • Its association with Behçet disease (BD) has not been previously described.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the clinical features, treatment response, and outcomes of OPN in patients with BD.
  • To identify features distinguishing BD-associated OPN from idiopathic OPN.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective case series review.
  • Inclusion criteria: diagnosis of OPN and meeting international criteria for BD.
  • Study period: 2008-2014.

Main Results:

  • Ten of 21 OPN patients (12 eyes) had BD.
  • OPN developed a mean of 4 years after BD onset; BD diagnosis was delayed in 6 patients.
  • 75% of affected eyes had severe visual loss (≤20/200).
  • 50% of patients showed improved visual acuity after high-dose corticosteroids.
  • 64% of affected eyes achieved good visual outcome (≥14/20) at follow-up; no subsequent neurological events occurred.

Conclusions:

  • OPN can be a manifestation of BD, potentially more common than idiopathic OPN in non-Western countries.
  • BD-associated OPN typically presents with rapid, severe visual loss.
  • Patients with BD-associated OPN show less visual recovery with corticosteroids but have a lower relapse rate.
