Indirect traumatic optic neuropathy
Indirect traumatic optic neuropathy (ITON) refers to optic nerve injury resulting from impact remote to the optic nerve. The mechanism of injury is not understood, and there are no confirmed protocols for prevention, mitigation or treatment. Most data concerning this condition comes from case series of civilian patients suffering blunt injury, such as from sports- or motor vehicle-related concu...
متن کاملCharacterization of macular thickness changes in Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy by optical coherence tomography
BACKGROUND To characterize macular thickness (MT) changes in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) patients by cirrus HD-optical coherence tomography (OCT), and to study the correlation between MT and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA). METHODS Fifty-two eyes from 52 consecutive LHON patients and 14 eyes from 14 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were scanned by OCT. Affected eyes we...
متن کامل[Debut of Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy. Macular segmentation analysis using optical coherence tomography].
CASE REPORT Two clinical cases are presented of two family relatives newly diagnosed with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) and G11778A mutation analysis by optical coherence tomography (Cirrus HD-OCT, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, California, USA) layer peripapillary fibers retina (RNFL) and ganglion cell and internal plexiform layers (GCL/IPL) using macular segmentation. DISCUSSION The...
متن کاملMacular spectral domain optical coherence tomography findings in Tanzanian endemic optic neuropathy.
Bilateral optic neuropathy in Dar es Salaam is now considered endemic and is estimated to affect 0.3-2.4% of young adults. The condition is characterized by a subacute bilateral loss of central vision of unknown aetiology. Findings of spectral domain optical coherence tomography have not previously been reported for these patients. All patients diagnosed with endemic optic neuropathy over a 2-y...
متن کاملSpectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Features of Traumatic Macular Retinoschisis
A 30‐year‐old man noticed acute visual loss in his left eye following explosion of a vehicle tire tube while inflating. On presentation, Snellen visual acuity (VA) was 20/20 in the right eye and 2 meters counting fingers in the left eye. Relative afferent pupillary defect was negative. A small area of temporal conjunctival hemorrhage, anterior chamber red blood cells (1+), and inferotemporal ir...
