Abstract

Introduction: Vernal conjunctivitis is a chronic, recurrent form of allergic conjunctivitis that occurs mainly in children and is commonly found in warm and humid climates or tropical countries, including Indonesia. Although vernal conjunctivitis is a self-limiting disease, it often leads to visual impairment and significantly affects the patient's quality of life. Methods: This retrospective descriptive study was conducted in Cicendo National Eye Hospital from March to April 2023 using the total sampling method to obtain the clinical features of vernal conjunctivitis patients. Result: This study took 117 patients (234 eyes) registered in electronic medical records from January to December 2022 with an age range of 7-18 years. The mean age of the patients was 10.73 ± 3.02 years, with total of 78 patients (66.67%) being male. A total of 30 patients (25.64%) had a history of atopic allergies. All patients in this study had a bilateral condition. The palpebral type was diagnosed in 85 patients (72.64%). Red eyes were the most prominent symptom experienced in 89 eyes (76.06%). Papillary signs were seen in 203 eyes (86.75%), with an uncorrected visual acuity of 6/6 to 6/18 were found in 163 eyes (69.66%). A small proportion of patients experienced complications in 93 eyes (39.74%). Conclusion: The clinical features of vernal conjunctivitis patients in Cicendo National Eye Hospital are similar to those in other tropical countries. Most patients were male and complained of itching and red eyes. The palpebral type is the most common type. Few distinct features were noted indicating a low association with atopy.

Abstract

Introduction: Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is the primary cause of irreversible blindness in adults worldwide. The characteristics of glaucoma patients and their response to therapy may differ by institution, region, and country. This study aimed to describe the demographic, clinical, and therapeutic aspects of POAG patients at Dr. Sardjito General Hospital Yogyakarta. Methods: This study included POAG patients who underwent full clinical ophthalmologic evaluations at Dr. Sardjito General Hospital Yogyakarta from January to December 2021. Characteristics such as age at presentation, sex, residence, visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), cup-to-disc ratio (CDR), laterality of affected eyes, Humphrey field analyzer-measured mean deviation (MD), and pattern standard deviation (PSD), medical and surgical treatment were recorded retrospectively. Results: Data from 253 POAG patients were collected, the mean age was 52±17.15 years old and the female sex was more common at 58%. The mean IOP was 16.49±8.02 mmHg, and the mean CDR was 0.68±0.18. The mean refractive errors of all eyes were -0.64±0.22 dioptres (D), with 63% of eyes had good visual acuity (6/12 or better), 19% had moderate visual acuity (6/15 to 6/50), and 18% had poor visual acuity (count fingers to no light perception). Furthermore, the mean MD and PSD were -8.89±12.01 dB and 4.73±3.52 dB, respectively. Of all patients, 81% received medication only while 19% received medication and surgical intervention. Trabeculectomy was the most common surgery performed (94%). Conclusion: POAG is generally a bilateral disease and occurs mostly in middle age population. Overall, trabeculectomy was the most common surgery performed in POAG patients.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide with intraocular pressure (IOP) as its main risk factor. Several studies have investigated the association between IOP and caffeine consumption with mixed results. This study aims to review whether caffeine consumption increases IOP thus, increases the risk of glaucoma. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was performed in 4 databases, including Pubmed, Proquest, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane. Last search was conducted on March 20, 2023. We include human studies investigating caffeine impact on IOP and/or glaucoma risk published in English with full text available from 2013 to 2023. The risk of bias was assessed with RoB 2.0 for crossover studies, NIH for cross-sectional and case-control studies. We present our results according to PRISMA guidelines. RESULT A total of 130.012 participants from 7 different studies were included in this review. Three crossover, 3 cross-sectional, and 1 case-control study were evaluated. This study involved a multi-racial population although Caucasian predominated. Five out of 7 studies exhibited a significant association (all p values <0.05) between caffeine consumption and increased risk of developing glaucoma. CONCLUSION Caffeine consumption generally shows a significant impact on developing risk of glaucoma and has been shown to increase IOP in acute settings, reported up to 90 minutes after consumption/ingestion. Limitations of this study include a small number of crossover participants and a high variability of participants (young healthy individuals and glaucoma patients). Further research is advised to investigate the association between caffeine consumption in a longer follow-up time and a more specific population.

Abstract

Introduction: Two of the most popular refractive surgery methods currently used are Femtosecond Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) which creates a flap using femtosecond laser and stromal ablation using excimer laser, and Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE), a flapless procedure in which a lenticule is extracted through a small incision. The aim of this study is to compare the visual acuity results of FS-LASIK and SMILE. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. Data were collected from the medical record of patients who underwent FS-LASIK or SMILE procedure at Cicendo Eye Hospital, the national eye centre, in 2022. Patients were followed up at 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month postoperatively and visual acuity outcomes between the two procedures were compared. Results: A slightly higher percentage of eyes in FS-LASIK (46.6%) achieved a UCVA of 1.0 at 1 day postoperatively compared to SMILE (45.5%). At 1 week and 1 month, SMILE showed superior results with 83% and 94.6% of eyes achieving a UCVA of 1.0, meanwhile FS-LASIK had 72.2% and 86.2%. Residual refractive error at 1 month had a median of -0.6146 and -0.3125 in the FS-LASIK and SMILE groups. Conclusion: This study found better UCVA results in the FS-LASIK group compared to the SMILE group at 1 day postoperatively. Meanwhile, UCVA at 1 week and 1 month postoperatively, showed superior results in the SMILE group. Residual refractive error at 1 month postoperatively also showed better results in SMILE than FS-LASIK.

Abstract

Introduction and Objective: Bevacizumab or Ranibizumab was widely used as therapy for macular edema (ME) in retinal vein occlusion (RVO) and diabetic retinopathy. The purpose of this study was to comparing short-term outcomes for patients who received intravitreal Bevacizumab (IVB) injection or Ranibizumab (IVR) for ME due to RVO Methods: This was observational, cross sectional study comparing patients received IVB or IVR. Primary outcomes data (visual acuity and central macular thickness/CMT) and secondary outcomes data (number injection and intra ocular pressure/IOP) were collected at baseline and 3 months after injection Results: There were 4 eyes in each group. There were no significant difference in mean change of visual acuity (-0.2750.25 vs -0.150.5 logMAR; p=0.676) and CMT (-171.50 129.08 vs -98.2537.67 m; p=0.345) in IVB vs IVR groups. There were also no significant difference in mean change of IOP (22.16 vs 24.69 mmHg; p=1) and number of injection (2.250.50 vs 1.750.9; p=0.401 ) in both groups.   Conclusion: In short-term both IVB and IVB have relative similar outcomes on increasing visual acuity and decreasing CMT in ME due to RVO

Abstract

Introduction: Internuclear ophthalmoplegia (INO) characterized by impaired adduction of the affected eye caused by a lesion in the medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF). The common cause of INO is demyelinating disease including multiple sclerosis. INO arguably the most discrete localizing sign in medicine, has considerable value in predicting multiple sclerosis. Due to its high spatial resolution, MRI has allowed us to depict in vivo the anatomic organization of the human oculomotor nerve complex, the MLF, and related structures in the brainstem. Case Report: A 48-year-old female presented with blurred vision of both eyes for 2 weeks, but then slowly resolved. Best corrected visual acuity presentation on both eyes were 20/20 with normal intraocular pressure (IOP). Adduction deficit observed on the left eye with no nystagmus. Convergence are not impaired in both eyes. Anterior segments was normal except minimal lens cloudiness in both eyes. Funduscopic examination result also within normal limit. Patient had undergone Computerised Tomography (CT-Scan) and the result was normal, no ischemic area or Space occupied lesion (SOL) or intracranial bleeding were found. Brain MRI showed bilateral optic perineuritis and multiple lesion in bilateral frontoparietalis and in the left side of the pons suggested multiple sclerosis. Discussion: Impairment of adduction movement on the patient’s left eye caused by demyelinating plaque related multiple sclerosis on the left side of the pons as shown MRI imaging. Management in this patient is based on the underlying condition. Conclusion: Internuclear ophthalmoplegia in this cases maybe caused by lesion in the medial longitudinal fasciculus could be related with multiple sclerosis.

Abstract

Introduction: This study aimed to discuss  the prognosis of optic neuritis in a patient with cerebral toxoplasmosis related to an immunocompromised condition.  Case Report: A 28-year-old female complained of blurred vision and double vision 2 weeks before admission, accompanied by headache, low extremities weakness, dysphonia, and dysphagia. Visual acuity of both eyes was 6/30 and worsened to 6/60 in a couple of days. Anterior segment examination revealed anisocoria pupil, and RAPD was positive in the left eye. Funduscopic examination showed a blurry margin and hyperemia of the optic nerve head. There was impaired eye movement, indicating oculomotor and abducens nerve palsies. High titer of IgG Antibody Toxoplasma (264) and very low titer of CD4 (<50) with non-reactive HIV rapid test were found in laboratory findings. Multiple ring enhancement was shown in MRI finding. Unfortunately, patient passed away during hospitalization due to respiratory failure. Discussion: Toxoplasmosis-associated optic neuritis is rare and usually becomes potentially serious. Although parasite detection by microscopy and bioassay is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis, clinical diagnosis relies more on serological examination methods. The high proportion of deaths from this disease is mostly caused by late diagnosis of the infection. Conclusion: Optic neuritis that accompanied by systemic disorders needs special attention and comprehensive treatment among multidisciplinary divisions, especially in the immunocompromised condition. Early detection and primary prevention are important to improve prognosis and survival rate.
