Glaucoma: Overview

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: Treatment

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
Infectious Diseases
Virology

Background:

Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral illness with various systemic and ocular manifestations.
Ocular complications of dengue fever are not uncommon, but specific inflammatory conditions like choroiditis are rarely reported.

Purpose of the Study:

To report a case of choroiditis as an ocular manifestation during dengue fever.
To document the clinical findings and emphasize a rare presentation of dengue virus infection.

Main Methods:

Case report of a 35-year-old female patient presenting with visual disturbances during dengue fever.
Ophthalmic examination including funduscopy to evaluate the posterior segment of both eyes.

Main Results:

The patient presented with blurred vision during dengue fever.
Fundus examination revealed characteristic findings of choroiditis, including yellow deep choroidal lesions, subretinal macular dots, a hyperemic disc, and a small retinal hemorrhage in the right eye.
The left eye exhibited similar, though smaller, discrete lesions.

Conclusions:

This case represents a hitherto undescribed instance of choroiditis in a patient with dengue fever.
The findings suggest that choroiditis may be a potential, albeit rare, ocular complication of dengue virus infection, warranting further investigation.
