Low visual acuity and asteroid hyalosis
A 56 years old man was admitted to the ophthalmology department for low visual acuity since his 45 years old with no amelioration after optic correction. The physical exam found visual acuity at 1/10 on the right eye and 9/10 on the left one, clear cornea, intraocular pressure at 14 mmhg on both eyes, the fundus of the right eye showed multiple yellow mobile vitreous particles that are absent o...
متن کاملTactile acuity is enhanced in blindness.
Functional imaging studies in blind subjects have shown tactile activation of cortical areas that normally subserve vision, but whether blind people have enhanced tactile acuity has long been controversial. We compared the passive tactile acuity of blind and sighted subjects on a fully automated grating orientation task and used multivariate Bayesian data analysis to determine predictors of acu...
متن کاملVisual Acuity Before and After Occlusion Therapy in Children and Adolescents (Aged 5-13 years) Amblyopia
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of occlusion therapy on visual acuity in children and adolescents (aged 5-13 years) with amblyopia. Methods: This experimental study followed a pretest-posttest design. Totally, 72 people with amblyopic eyes (visual acuity between 20/100 and 20/25) were selected through convenient sampling. The visual acuity was assessed at 1, 3, and 6 months after starting occlu...
متن کاملCorrelation between Visual Acuity and Optical Coherence Tomography-Measured Retinal Thickness in Diabetic Macular Edema
Background and Objective: Diabetic macular edema (DME) is one of the common complications of diabetes which significantly accounts for preventable visual impairment and blindness. Central macular thickness (CMT) is a feature found in DME patients. This study aims to determine the relationship between optical coherence tomography (OCT)-measured CMT and visual acuity (VA) in patients with DME bef...
متن کاملRefrigerator blindness: selective loss of visual acuity in association with a common foraging behaviour.
The Case: Three male offspring, aged 9–14 years, of one of the authors (M.B.) were observed to experience visual problems profound enough to imply functional blindness. The visual deficit was evident on almost every occasion when any one of the children of this physician went to the refrigerator and opened the door. The acute visual problem encountered was noted to be part of a consistent behav...
