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 کاملNoninvasive assessment of tear stability with the tear stability analysis system in tear dysfunction patients.
PURPOSE To evaluate tear film stability in patients with tear dysfunction and an asymptomatic control group by using the novel, noninvasive Tear Stability Analysis System (TSAS). METHODS In this prospective case-control study, 45 patients with dysfunctional tear syndrome (DTS) were stratified into three groups (1, 2, and 3/4) based on clinical severity, with higher scores indicating more seve...
متن کاملClinical Tests Diagnostic for Rotator Cuff Tear
This clinical outcomes study aimed to determine the commonly used shoulder tests predictive for rotator cuff tear (RCT). The study was carried out in 2 parts involving 400 patients who attended the senior author’s practice (n = 100/group). Part I compared patients with isolated RCTs and a “No-RCT” group. Part II compared RCT patients (some with isolated RCTs, others with RCTs and combined patho...
متن کاملFeasibility Study of Smartphone-Based Tear Volume Measurement System
Evaluation of tear volume is important for diagnosing dry eye disease. At the clinical site, dedicated devices such as slit lamp microscopy or Schirmer’s test strip have been used to quantify tear volume by ophthalmologist. However, these devices have access only in medical office and therefore have limited availability for the public. Tear volume changes with environmental, physical or psychol...
متن کاملMeniscal root tears: a classification system based on tear morphology.
BACKGROUND Meniscal root tears present in many forms and can have profound consequences on the health of knee articular cartilage. While the biomechanics, natural history, and treatment of root tears have been increasingly investigated, the spectrum of meniscal root tear patterns observed during arthroscopic examination has yet to be defined and categorized. PURPOSE To establish a classificat...
