Relationship between tear volume and tear meniscus curvature.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between tear volume and tear meniscus curvature by means of the video meniscometer. METHODS Eleven eyes of 11 patients with severe dry eye were studied (all female; mean +/- SD age, 66.2 +/- 7.7 years; 7 left eyes and 4 right eyes), each of whose puncta had been therapeutically occluded. Four instillations of balanced salt solution were given at inter...
متن کاملThe Trapped Medial Meniscus Tear
Methods: Eight patients with trapped medial meniscus tears were identified from a single surgeon’s academic orthopaedic sports medicine practice between January 2009 and January 2012. Each patient underwent clinical evaluation, MRI, and arthroscopic treatment for meniscus injury. Clinical notes, MRI images, radiology reports, and operative findings were reviewed and compared in a descriptive fa...
متن کاملLateral meniscus root tear and meniscus extrusion with anterior cruciate ligament tear.
PURPOSE To retrospectively determine the prevalence of posterior lateral meniscus root tears (LMRTs), as depicted on magnetic resonance (MR) images, in patients with an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear and to investigate the association of LMRTs with lateral meniscus extrusion and other ligament injuries. MATERIALS AND METHODS Institutional review board approval was obtained; informed co...
متن کاملCorrelation between Tear Osmolarity and Other Ocular Surface Parameters in Primary Sjögren's Syndrome
PURPOSE To investigate the relationships between tear osmolarity and other ocular surface parameters and to determine the diagnostic value of tear osmolarity in primary Sjögren's syndrome (SS) using tear film break-up time, Schirmer I test, and cornea/conjunctiva staining. METHODS We included 310 eyes of 155 patients diagnosed with dry eye disease (39 primary SS and 116 non-Sjögren dry eye di...
متن کاملEffect of Pterygium Surgery on Tear Osmolarity
Purpose. To investigate changes of dry eye test results in patients who underwent pterygium surgery. Methods. Seventy-four patients who underwent primary pterygium surgery were enrolled in this study. At the baseline, 3-, 12-, and 18-month visits, measurements of tear osmolarity, BUT, and Schirmer test were performed. The patients were divided into 2 groups: Group 1, which consisted of patients...
