Penetrating eye injuries are commonly caused by sharp objects like needles, sticks, or glass. They can cause mechanical damage to eye structures as well as introduce infection. Symptoms include redness, pain, and vision loss. Examination may reveal lacerations or penetration of the sclera or cornea. Treatment depends on the severity but generally involves antibiotics to prevent infection, with suturing of larger wounds. Globe rupture from blunt trauma risks extrusion of intraocular contents and requires careful examination to avoid further damage.

This document discusses advances in treatment for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) through ranibizumab injection. It defines AMD and its dry and wet types. Ranibizumab injection works on wet AMD by inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which causes abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina. The document covers dosage and administration of ranibizumab injections, their mode of action binding to VEGF receptors, potential adverse effects, and precautions for use. Barriers to AMD treatment include the high cost of ranibizumab injections.
Eye injuries can occur from direct trauma, chemical contamination, infection, allergies, or other medical conditions. Some common signs of eye injuries include pain, redness, blurred vision, swelling and watering. The treatment for an eye injury depends on its cause but generally involves flushing the injured eye with water and seeking immediate medical attention to prevent further damage.
Anti-VEGF agents such as bevacizumab, ranibizumab, pegaptanib, and aflibercept are used to treat retinal diseases caused by abnormal blood vessel growth due to VEGF overexpression. They work by inhibiting VEGF to prevent new blood vessel proliferation and leakage. Common uses include treating wet age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusions, and retinopathy of prematurity. Ranibizumab and aflibercept are approved by the FDA, while bevacizumab is commonly used off-label. Monthly intravitreal injections are typically required initially, then treatments are extended based on disease response. Adverse events include inflammation, increased intraocular pressure, and

This document provides information about amblyopia (lazy eye), including its symptoms, causes, diagnosis, and treatment. It also discusses blepharitis (eyelid inflammation), corticosteroid cream used to treat inflammation, and an antibiotic/corticosteroid eye drop combination used to treat bacterial eye infections where steroid treatment is required.
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases characterized by optic nerve damage often associated with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Risk factors include increased IOP, age, family history, race, and diabetes. Goals of treatment are to lower IOP, control IOP fluctuation over 24 hours, and preserve vision while balancing medication efficacy and side effects. Common glaucoma drug classes lower IOP by decreasing aqueous humor production or increasing outflow, and are dosed 1-3 times daily with possible side effects like redness, fatigue, and drowsiness. Plateau iris syndrome is when the iris remains occluded after iridotomy due to anteriorly positioned ciliary processes; argon laser peripheral iridoplasty
Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion for Dry Eye Diseaseeyedoc34
Two randomized controlled trials compared the efficacy and safety of cyclosporine 0.05% and 0.10% ophthalmic emulsions to their vehicle in treating moderate to severe dry eye disease. Both concentrations of cyclosporine significantly improved corneal staining and blurred vision compared to vehicle after 4-6 months. Cyclosporine was well tolerated with few discontinuing due to adverse events. The studies found topical cyclosporine effective and safe for treating dry eye disease.
This document provides information on nursing management of patients with eye disorders. It begins with definitions of visual impairment and functional limitation of the eye. It then discusses management of various causes of blindness such as nutritional deficiencies, refractive errors, infections, and cataracts. The role of the nurse in caring for visually impaired patients is described, including considerations for physical environment, patient interaction, mobility assistance, and providing information. Common ocular drugs are classified and discussed, including anti-inflammatory drugs, mydriatics and cycloplegics, lubricants, and antiglaucoma drugs. Specific drugs are explained in terms of their mechanisms, indications, formulations, dosages, and side effects.
Although optometrists do not perform laser vision correction here in the United States, they can still provide a valuable role in this procedure that is gaining unprecedented popularity.
Closed ocular trauma from blunt force can damage the eye internally without leaving external injuries. Symptoms may not appear for years, including vision problems, light sensitivity, and double vision. Thorough vision screening is important for trauma patients, as 64% have undiagnosed vision loss. Symptoms range from color blindness to phantom visions in 20% of patients. Low vision rehabilitation helps patients cope through magnifiers, lighting adjustments, and using other senses to aid activities like reading and mobility. Proper assessment is needed to diagnose and treat vision effects of closed ocular trauma.
This study aimed to determine the incidence of posterior capsular opacity (PCO) after small incision cataract surgery in age-related cataracts and identify associated risk factors. A total of 125 eyes were followed up for 6 months post-operatively. The overall PCO incidence was 29.6%. PCO was significantly lower in patients who received continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis compared to envelope capsulotomy (22.2% vs 43.2%), and in those who underwent hydrodelineation compared to no hydrodelineation (22% vs 50%). Intraoperative complications like uveitis and iridodialysis were also associated with increased PCO risk. The study concluded that PCO

1) The document discusses resistance to anti-VEGF injections for wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD), including treatment regimens, therapy failure, and treatment switching.
2) It finds that resistance can occur through tachyphylaxis or tolerance, and that switching therapy from ranibizumab to aflibercept or bevacizumab can be effective for patients who do not respond to or lose response to ranibizumab over time.
3) A trial switching patients to aflibercept who were incomplete responders to multiple ranibizumab injections found mean central subfield thickness decreased by 27.3 μm and 15.6% of eyes had a decrease in thickness of
Corneal abrasion is a loss of the outermost layer of the cornea caused by physical or chemical trauma. Symptoms include eye pain, sensitivity to light, tearing, and blurred vision. Diagnosis is made through slit lamp examination with fluorescein dye, which reveals defects in the corneal surface. Treatment focuses on pain relief with anesthetic drops or analgesics, prevention of infection with antibiotic drops, and protection of the eye with patching or bandage contact lenses until the epithelium heals, which usually occurs within 1-2 days for minor abrasions. Prognosis is generally excellent with prompt treatment, but deep or untreated abrasions risk infection and scarring.

Macular Degeneration - Update on clinical trial results and new treatmentspresmedaustralia
The CATT study found that ranibizumab (Lucentis) and bevacizumab (Avastin) produced similar visual acuity outcomes for wet AMD over 2 years. However, bevacizumab was less effective in reducing retinal swelling. There were also more serious systemic side effects with bevacizumab. While deaths, heart attacks and strokes were low with both drugs, CATT was not large enough to determine if there were meaningful differences in these rare but serious side effects. More research is still needed to determine longer term safety and efficacy.
Topical chemo therapeutic treatments for non melanoma skin cancerJeremy Gathercole
This document provides information on topical treatments for skin cancers and pre-cancers including 5-fluorouracil (5FU) cream and imiquimod cream. It discusses the mechanisms of action, indications, instructions for use, side effects, costs and comparisons between the two treatments. 5FU cream is effective for solar keratoses, Bowen's disease and some basal cell carcinomas. Imiquimod cream shows variable responses but is useful for solar keratoses and superficial basal cell carcinomas. Both have local side effects but 5FU only has local effects while imiquimod can cause systemic side effects. Compliance is better with 5FU due to shorter treatment duration. Guidance from dermatology specialists is
Enhancement of ischemic wound healing by inducement of local angiogenesisJeffrey Spiegel
This study investigated whether delivering activated pro-angiogenic monocytes to an ischemic skin flap in rats could improve vascularization and wound healing. Fifteen rats underwent surgery to create an ischemic skin flap model. The rats were divided into three groups: one group received a collagen gel containing M2 angiogenic monocytes applied to the flap, one control group received cell-free collagen, and another control received no treatment. After one week, there were no differences in wound healing or skin viability between groups. However, histological analysis found the monocyte-treated group had significantly greater vascular improvement than one control group, and a trend toward greater vascular improvement than the other control group. These results suggest delivery of activated monocytes may improve vascularization

Reversal of a HLA dermal filler induced facial artery occlusionDr. Patrick J. Treacy
Severe vascular adverse events, such as occlusion, can occur after treatment with dermal fillers in the glabellar and nasolabial regions. The author proposes that late onset vascular occlusion may be caused by hyaluronic acid expanding and compressing underlying arteries after injection. To treat impending necrosis from filler-induced vascular occlusion, the author recommends higher than normal doses of hyaluronidase, intravenous steroids, and other measures to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery. While most adverse reactions are mild and transient, practitioners must understand vascular anatomy and have protocols in place to promptly treat more serious complications like vascular occlusion.
Dry socket (alveolar osteitis) is a painful condition that sometimes occurs after tooth extraction where the blood clot fails to form or dislodges prematurely. Risk factors include difficult extractions, trauma, smoking, oral contraceptive use, and pre-existing infections. Symptoms include intense pain, exposed bone in the socket, and delayed healing. Treatment focuses on managing pain and supporting new blood clot formation and wound healing. The use of concentrated growth factors which contain platelets and cytokines has shown promise as it can help establish a microenvironment to support tissue regeneration in dry socket healing.
Dr Patrick Treacy shares some of his most challenging
aesthetic dermatological cases. This month, he talks about the reversal of a dermal filler facial arterial occlusion with hyaluronidase and intravenous steroids
Bortezomib is a proteasome inhibitor approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma and has known manageable toxicities. Blepharitis is an inflammatory condition of the eyelid that leads to formation of chalazia both causing visual field disturbance. Bortezomib induced blepharitis has not been

This retrospective study examines 9 cases where surgical correction was needed for complications from semi-permanent lip fillers. The patients had experienced migration of the fillers Bio in Blue and Bio-Alcamid, resulting in hard nodules along the lips. Previous treatments like steroid injections had not resolved the issues. Through small incisions, the doctor was able to surgically remove the nodules. Biopsies found no foreign body giant cells. The study concludes that while semi-permanent fillers aimed to provide longer-lasting results, they carried higher risks like infection and migration compared to temporary fillers, necessitating their removal from markets. Surgical removal can effectively treat complications when conservative methods fail.
This document discusses complications that can arise from infusion therapy in critically ill infants and strategies to prevent them. It summarizes that:
1) Particles in infusion systems can cause inflammation, damage to blood vessels, and organ dysfunction. The use of inline filters can remove micro- and nano-particles and reduce complications.
2) Drug incompatibilities can also lead to particles that impair drug efficacy. Having separate lines for incompatible drugs and using standard operating procedures can prevent this.
3) An educational workshop teaches physicians, nurses and pharmacists about preventing complications through inline filtration, standard line arrangements, vascular access training, and handling of infusion equipment and drugs.

Facial danger zones techniques to maximize safety during soft tissue filler i...Nhat Nguyen
Given the popularity of facial fillers as a nonsurgical alternative to rejuvenation, the authors describe techniques to maximize safety when injecting in facial danger zones. Reported complications can include blindness, stroke or death from inadvertent damage or cannulation of vasculature. The authors outline preferred injection methods in areas like the glabella/brow, temporal region, lips and nasolabial folds with respect to pertinent anatomy. The goal is to minimize risk by using reversible fillers, small needles and cannulas, and avoiding direct injections near vulnerable arteries. Practitioners must recognize complications and address them immediately.

The FDA issued an update on serious complications associated with transvaginal placement of surgical mesh for pelvic organ prolapse. Based on reports from 2008-2010, complications were found to not be rare and included mesh erosion, pain, infection and organ perforation. The literature review found erosion to be the most common mesh-related complication and that mesh contraction can cause vaginal pain and tightening. The FDA recommends considering non-mesh alternatives first due to risks and that mesh placement requires specialized training. Surgeons should discuss risks and benefits of all options with patients.

A Rationale for Postsurgical Laser Use to Effectively Treat Dental Implants_F...DrCarlosIICapitan
This document describes two case reports that demonstrate how using a laser after regenerative surgery for peri-implantitis can lead to improved outcomes. In the first case, the initial surgery was only partially successful in treating advanced peri-implant bone loss. Five months later, the area was treated with an Nd:YAG laser, along with soft tissue curettage and antibiotics. One year later, the clinical outcomes had greatly improved with reduced soft tissue inflammation and probing depths within normal limits. The second case similarly showed improved results after using a CO2 laser following an initial unsuccessful regenerative surgery. The cases suggest that lasers may help treat peri-implantitis by removing titanium particles and cement remnants that can persist after other
This document discusses the reversal of dermal filler-induced facial artery occlusion. It notes that while adverse reactions to dermal fillers are usually mild and transient, significant vascular complications can occasionally occur. It theorizes that late-onset vascular occlusion may result from hyaluronic acid expanding and compressing underlying vessels. It then outlines a case of a patient who developed erythema and pain after HA injection and was treated with hyaluronidase, steroids, and oxygenating cream, with symptoms resolving within 5 days. The author proposes adding intravenous steroids to the standard reversal protocol and discusses prevention through anatomy knowledge and proper technique.

Telomeres act as a biological clock for aging. As cells divide, telomeres become shorter until cell division stops. Researchers discovered activating the telomerase enzyme in mice extended their telomeres, reversing signs of aging. However, fully understanding if and how telomerase could slow human aging requires more research due to biological differences between mice and humans. Currently, the best anti-aging approaches are healthy lifestyle habits and cosmetic procedures to look youthful.
This document discusses considerations for plastic surgeons when evaluating teenage patients who want plastic surgery. It notes that determining when a teenager is mature enough to make an irreversible decision about their appearance is challenging. While some surgeries like rhinoplasty may help boost confidence after teasing, changing one's looks may not solve deeper issues. The document suggests waiting until transitional periods like summer vacations to allow for recovery without social pressures. Overall, surgeons should investigate patient goals and whether surgery aligns with healthy development rather than superficial reasons.

This document discusses research showing that perceptions of beauty are hardwired in the human brain. Studies have found that babies and other animals stare longer at attractive faces than unattractive ones. Features like youthful skin, symmetrical features, and characteristics associated with health and fertility are universally perceived as beautiful. However, preferences are also shaped by cultural backgrounds and experiences. While most beauty standards are universal, enhancing features associated with femininity can make faces appear more attractive. Plastic surgery procedures aim to make features like eyebrows, forehead, chin, and jawline appear more delicate and feminine.
