Iris transillumination defects in patients with primary open angle glaucoma.
PURPOSE To examine the incidence and pattern of iris transillumination defects in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) with and without vascular dysregulation, in comparison to controls. METHODS We prospectively examined 24 patients with POAG (M/F 10:14; mean age 59 +/- 14, range 21-76 years) and 23 controls (M/F 10:13; mean age 52 +/- 15, range 25-86 years). Vascular dysregulatio...
متن کاملLyst mutation in mice recapitulates iris defects of human exfoliation syndrome.
PURPOSE Human eyes with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) exhibit a distinctive pattern of iris transillumination defects that are recapitulated in Lyst mutant mice carrying the beige allele. The purpose of this study was to determine the anatomic basis for Lyst-mediated transillumination defects, test whether Lyst mutant mice develop other features of XFS, and describe the molecular basis of the beig...
متن کاملAlbinisme oculocutané: iris en transillumination
L'albinisme regroupe un ensemble d'affections héréditaires liées à une anomalie de biosynthèse de la mélanine secondaire à un déficit variable en tyrosinase, enzyme impliquée dans la synthèse de ce pigment. La mélanine est élaborée dans des cellules spécialisées de la peau, des cheveux, de l'épithélium pigmenté de la rétine et au niveau de l'iris. L'examen à la lampe à fente d'un sujet albinos ...
متن کاملMoxifloxacin and bilateral acute iris transillumination
Recent publications have alerted clinicians to a syndrome of uveitic transilluminating iris depigmentation associated with systemic fluoroquinolones and other antibiotics. Bilateral acute iris transillumination, which is associated with loss of the iris pigment epithelium and results in iris transillumination, differs from the previously described bilateral acute depigmentation of the iris, whi...
متن کاملBilateral acute iris transillumination: Case report.
Bilateral acute iris transillumination (BAIT) is a recently defined disease characterized with bilateral acute, severe pigment dispersion of iris and pupil sphincter paralysis. The etiopathogenesis of the disease is unknown, but antibiotics such as moxifloxacin, clarithromycin, viral infections, and fumigation therapies were considered as probable etiologic factors. A 33-year-old female was ref...
