Glaucoma: Overview01:25

Glaucoma: Overview

560
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

485
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...

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment01:27

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

440
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...

Prosopagnosia01:24

Prosopagnosia

159
Prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness, is the inability to recognize faces. In severe cases, individuals with prosopagnosia may not recognize close family members, including parents and spouses, by their faces. For instance, someone with prosopagnosia might walk past their child in a crowd, only realizing their mistake upon noticing their child's distinctive backpack or favorite jacket. Prosopagnosia specifically impairs facial recognition, while the recognition of other objects or...

Summary

Dragged-fovea diplopia syndrome (DFDS) causes double vision due to foveal displacement from retinal issues. Treatments include occlusion or prisms, though no cure exists for this condition.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neuroscience
  • Vision Science

Background:

  • Dragged-fovea diplopia syndrome (DFDS) is characterized by binocular double vision.
  • It arises from foveal displacement secondary to retinal disorders like epiretinal membranes or maculopathies.
  • DFDS results from a sensory mismatch between peripheral motor fusion and central foveal fusion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To consolidate current knowledge on DFDS.
  • To detail diagnostic methods and therapeutic strategies for DFDS.
  • To clarify nomenclature, acknowledging synonyms like central-peripheral rivalry (CPR)-type diplopia.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review to synthesize existing data on DFDS.
  • Description of the Lights On - Lights Off test for diagnosis.
  • Overview of management options including monocular treatments and prisms.

Main Results:

  • DFDS is diagnosed via the Lights On - Lights Off test.
  • Effective management strategies include monocular occlusion/blurring and Fresnel prisms.
  • No definitive cure for DFDS is currently available.

Conclusions:

  • DFDS is a distinct entity causing diplopia due to foveal displacement.
  • Diagnosis relies on specific clinical tests.
  • Management focuses on alleviating symptoms through various optical and occlusive methods.
