low vision aids
The document provides information on low vision, including definitions, causes, assessments, and aids. It defines low vision according to the WHO and Indian standards. Common causes that can benefit from low vision aids are discussed. Assessment of low vision patients involves testing visual acuity, visual fields, contrast sensitivity, and other factors. A variety of optical and non-optical low vision aids are described, including magnifiers, telescopes, illumination devices, software, and filters to reduce glare. The goals of low vision management and global prevalence of low vision are also summarized.
Presbyopic contact lens description
This document discusses various options for correcting presbyopia with contact lenses, including bifocal, monovision, and multifocal lenses. Bifocal lenses have simultaneous vision designs like concentric, aspheric, and diffractive lenses or alternating/translating designs. Monovision fits one eye for distance and one for near. Factors in fitting presbyopic contact lenses include visual requirements, occupation, binocularity, medication, and tear film status. Fitting requires assessing balance of distance and near vision and allowing adaptation time, with patient education crucial. Presbyopia correction with contact lenses provides an alternative to bifocal glasses but requires careful patient screening and management of expectations.
Dr vinit kumar paediatric refraction
1. This document provides guidelines for prescribing glasses in children, including defining refractive errors, development aspects, and types of retinoscopy.
2. Key points include that cycloplegic refraction is mandatory in children to fully relax accommodation, and that significant refractive errors over ±4D or astigmatism over -1.5D are considered amblyogenic.
3. Guidelines specify that low hyperopia generally does not require correction unless esotropia is present, while moderate to high hyperopia and significant myopia should be fully corrected. The document outlines different approaches to managing myopia and hyperopia in children.
Aniridia and low vision
Aniridia is a congenital condition where the iris is partially or fully absent. It is caused by mutations in the PAX6 gene and is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. Aniridia is associated with low vision due to foveal and optic nerve hypoplasia, nystagmus, cataracts, and corneal changes. Treatment involves managing refractive errors, amblyopia, strabismus early. Low vision devices like telescopes, magnifiers and closed circuit TV help with visual tasks. Medical management includes treatments for glaucoma and surgical interventions for cataracts and glaucoma.
Pediatric Eye Examination
This document provides guidance on pediatric eye examinations from newborns through school age. It describes evaluating the general ocular status, visual reflexes, eye movements, and visual milestones in newborns and infants. Examination techniques are outlined for toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged children, including inspection, light reflex testing, visual acuity assessments, and visual field testing appropriate for each age group.
Spectacles for children
Children's spectacle frames should be appropriately sized for comfort, with robust and lightweight materials that won't cause allergic reactions. Frames should fit securely while avoiding pressure points, and include features like spring hinges, large nose bridges, or gel pads for comfort. Sports frames may have strap attachments to ensure secure fit during active play. Early eye exams within the first ten days of life can help detect and treat vision issues early when the eye is still developing. Sunglasses from an optician provide needed UV protection for children's developing eyes.

Examination techniques are outlined, focusing on special approaches needed for babies and young children. Factors specific to fitting soft lenses, silicone rubber lenses, and rigid lenses in paediatric patients are also described.
Low Vision Aids
This document discusses low vision aids and their use for people with low vision. It defines low vision as visual acuity between 6/18 and 3/60 in the better eye after correction, or a field of vision between 20 to 30 degrees. Common causes of low vision include macular degeneration, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. Optical low vision aids like magnifying spectacles, hand magnifiers, and telescopes use magnification to improve vision. Non-optical aids include increased lighting, contrast enhancement, and electronic magnifiers. Proper evaluation and prescribing of low vision aids depends on the patient's needs, vision status, and motivation. The goal is to prescribe simple, portable devices to help low vision
Visiontherapy
Vision therapy involves various eye exercises and techniques to treat eye movement disorders and other vision issues. Some common techniques described in the document include Brock string, barrel card/3 dot card, chiastopic fusion using colored circles or eccentric circles, tranaglyph, and vergence rock. These techniques aim to develop convergence skills, eliminate suppression, increase fusional vergence ranges and facility, and achieve single binocular vision through activities like fusion of targets at varying distances and under different visual conditions. Equipment used includes strings, cards with dots or circles in varying configurations, prisms, and electronic devices to practice fusion. Therapies continue until specific criteria for convergence ability, awareness of eye movements, and fusion are met.

Eye and your children
Regular eye exams are important for children's healthy development and vision. Common eye problems in children include refractive errors, lazy eye or amblyopia, squint, and watering or blocked tear ducts. A child's eyes are special, as vision helps them learn about the world in their early years and through school. Parents should have their children's eyes examined regularly to allow early detection and treatment of vision problems or eye diseases.
Leucocoria
La leucocoria o "reflejo de gato" se caracteriza por la ausencia del reflejo rojizo normal del fondo del ojo, dando una apariencia blanquecina. Puede deberse a causas como catarata congénita, retinoblastoma, retinopatía del prematuro o hiperplasia del vítreo. El retinoblastoma es un tumor maligno congénito hereditario que requiere tratamiento urgente como la enucleación del ojo afectado para prevenir la metástasis o la muerte.

My Clouding Cornea
1) Congenital clouding of the cornea, also known as congenital corneal opacities, can be caused by conditions present at birth such as sclerocornea, tears in Descemet's membrane from birth trauma or congenital glaucoma, ulcers from herpes simplex virus or bacteria, or metabolic diseases.
2) The most common causes found in one study were Peters anomaly (40.3%), sclerocornea (18.1%), and dermoid (15.3%).
3) Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may include contact lenses, patching, glaucoma surgery, antiviral medication, or penetrating keratoplasty.

COMMUNITY OPHTHALMOLOGY.pptx
Primary health care is a vital component of eye care that includes promotion of eye health, prevention and treatment of conditions that may lead to visual loss. Primary eye care aims to make eye care services universally accessible through community-based programs. A primary eye care worker is trained to manage some eye conditions, diagnose others, and refer patients appropriately. Essential components of primary eye care include health promotion, disease prevention, treatment of common diseases, and rehabilitation. Regular training, supervision, and interaction between full-time eye care workers and volunteer community workers is important for a successful primary eye care program.
Pediatric-Eye-Evaluation-for-Nurses.pptx
Vision disorders are common in children and can negatively impact development if left untreated. A comprehensive eye exam evaluates vision, eye alignment and tracking, focusing ability, and screens for conditions like nearsightedness and lazy eye. Exams are important because many issues have no obvious symptoms. Screenings miss up to 1/3 of problems and may lead to misdiagnoses. Comprehensive exams are recommended at ages 6 months, 3 years, before school, and every 2 years thereafter to catch issues early for best outcomes. Bringing an infant for an exam requires preparing them to be well-rested and not distressed.

Prevention of-childhood-blindness
TIME: 10; 00AM PROMPT
Childhood blindness refers to a group of diseases and conditions occurring in childhood or early adolescence (<16 years of age), which, if left untreated, result in blindness. The World Health Organization (2010) [2] estimation showed that the number of blind children in the world has declined from 1.4 million in 1999 to the current number of 1.26 million. However, in Sub-Saharan Africa, the number has increased by 31% from 129890 to 419000. Childhood blindness is responsible for a high number of “blind years” such that even though the actual number of blind children is much smaller than the number of blind adults, the total “blind years” lived are comparable to those due to age related cataract . Furthermore, blindness in children is related to child mortality. For these reasons, the control of blindness in children is considered a high priority in the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Vision 2020 initiative: The Right to Sight
Eye assessment

It then discusses the various components of history taking including biographical data, chief complaint, review of systems, past medical history and more. The document outlines the process of physical examination including inspection of external eye structures, examination of eyeballs and lacrimal apparatus, and assessment of conjunctiva and sclera. It also discusses various diagnostic evaluations such as visual acuity testing, ophthalmoscopy, tonometry and imaging tests. Finally, it summarizes two research articles on knowledge of eye care among ICU nurses and eye donation among nursing students.
Kids2See Orientation Slide Show
The document discusses a Kids2See initiative that aims to screen children for untreated eye diseases through volunteer-run vision screenings. It outlines that 80% of children's learning is visual, and untreated childhood eye diseases can lead to learning difficulties and preventable blindness. The initiative plans to screen over 140 kindergarten children at two schools using standardized tests, record results, refer children suspected of issues to follow-up care, and inform all families of benefits. The screening is not an exam. It encourages University of Toronto medical student volunteers to get involved by signing up to receive training and screening dates to help run the program.

Binaural hearing using two hearing aids instead of one offers numerous advantages, including improved sound localization, enhanced sound quality, better speech understanding in noise, reduced listening effort, and greater overall satisfaction. By leveraging the brain’s natural ability to process sound from both ears, binaural hearing aids provide a more balanced, clear, and comfortable hearing experience. If you or a loved one is considering hearing aids, consult with a hearing care professional at Ear Solutions hearing aid clinic in Mumbai to explore the benefits of binaural hearing and determine the best solution for your hearing needs. Embracing binaural hearing can lead to a richer, more engaging auditory experience and significantly improve your quality of life.

- 2. THIS MAY BE HOW YOUR CHILD SEES And he may not even know something’s not right
- 3. Why should we be concerned? • 1 in 4 children have eye problems that can affect reading • Development of the visual system is extremely age sensitive Hence, early detection and treatment of visual problems is absolutely critical
- 4. Common eye problems in children • Refractive errors (spectacle number) – 80% of visual impairment in children is due to this factor – Myopia (near-sightedness) – Hypermetropia (far-sightedness) – Anisometropia • Lazy eye – Seen in 1% of children • Squint (crossed-eyes)
- 5. Protecting your child’s eyesight • Sports and your child’s eye – All impact injuries can be prevented by using proper eye protection – Use polycarbonate plastic for lenses and use proper frames • Swimming and your child’s eye – Chlorine in pools causes irritation – Danger of freshwater infections – Use water tight swimming goggles
- 6. Protecting your child’s eyesight • VDUs and our child’s eye – Can give rise to eyestrain, headaches, burning, itching, blurring of vision, double vision and fatigue – Computer monitors: Place so as to minimize reflection and at eye level (preferred viewing distance: 60-80 cms)
- 7. Protecting your child’s eyesight – TV: Watch in a softly illuminated room, never in a dark one (preferred viewing distance: 3-4 mts) – Reading: Place the light source behind your child (Reading material at a distance of 12-14 inches)
- 8. Preserving your child’s eyesight • Loss of vision is the most feared disability • Higher incidence when there is a eye problem in the family • Many problems also linked to lifestyle choices – poor dietary habits, excessive UV exposure
- 9. Be proactive • Start with the diet – Emphasis on fresh vegetables and fruits, whole grains and nuts – Organic low-fat yogurt and eggs – Small amount of fish – Natural unprocessed food – Avoid junk food Will help preserve the circulation to the retina, visual nerve cells and the lens
- 10. Be proactive • Add exercise for circulation – Helps maintain a low blood pressure – Improves circulation to the heart – Preserves blood vessels and maintains blood flow • Protect from UV light – Prevents oxidative damage to the lens – Delays degeneration of lens and retina – Some sunlight important for vitamin D production – Use hats and UV-filtering sunglasses
- 11. Be proactive • Dietary supplements – Over 25% of childhood blindness caused due to vitamin A deficiency – Helpful nutrients: Vitamin E and C, zinc, amino acids – Improve vision and protect the macula and the lens
- 12. Eye examination in children • Vision screening should be done between 3 ½ and 4 years of age • Newborn’s eyes should be examined by a pediatrician • All premature infants should be examined by an ophthalmologist • Conduct routine screening of school children • Any appearance of visual impairment symptoms entails a detailed eye examination
- 13. The gift of vision is precious. And it’s never too early to help your child have a bright future
