Not knowing IOPs can make you a better clinician
August 11th 2015With that in mind, there are several aspects of my own EHR software that I really appreciate over paper charts. Besides the fact that I can actually read what I wrote (or typed), one thing that I particularly enjoy is the fact that I am able to consistently look at a new patient’s optic nerves without knowing his or her intraocular pressure (IOP) values beforehand.
Is glaucoma a neurological disease?
June 16th 2015For years now, there has been considerable evidence indicating that glaucoma should be considered a neurological disease and not an entity isolated to the eyes alone. Perhaps the most compelling evidence for such a characterization is the fact that the retinal ganglion cells affected by glaucoma do not synapse until they arrive at the midbrain (specifically, the lateral geniculate nucleus).
Fast forward 10 years: How will we treat myopia?
May 31st 2015Liverpool, UK-The British Contact Lens Association meeting features several panel discussion on a theme. Topics included a look into the future for managing myopia and contact lens discomfort. In addition, improve the success of your multifocal contact lens fits with expert suggestions.
Field defect, high IOP might not signal glaucoma
February 6th 2015Glaucoma is a term that describes a family of progressive optic neuropathies. All of the glaucomas share characteristic and progressive cupping of the optic nerve head, and this cupping is most easily viewed by means of direct stereoscopic evaluation through a dilated pupil.
A clinical perspective of neovascular glaucoma
December 11th 2014Neovascular glaucoma is a potentially devastating ocular consequence of pathologic neovascularization of intraocular tissue. The symptoms include vision loss caused by both the underlying etiology (such as retinal vascular disease) as well as increased intraocular pressure (IOP), often accompanied by corneal edema, hyphema, or vitreous hemorrhage.
Using glaucoma diagnostic imaging
November 24th 2014Over the last decade, there has been rapid growth in the management of glaucoma. Innovative imaging technologies that aid in the diagnosis of this vision-threatening disease have also been on the rise. Instead of relying on a single diagnostic tool, clinicians may consider leveraging the benefits of several modalities available today.
Rapper’s wife receives controversial implant to change eye color
October 31st 2014Your patients may have seen wife of rapper T.I. and reality star Tameka “Tiny” Harris appear on Good Morning America this week to reveal she had undergone surgery to permanently change her brown eyes to “ice gray,” sparking a national conversation about the safety of such a procedure.
Most fluoroquinolones use not connected with glaucoma risk
October 31st 2014A recent study published in the Journal of Glaucoma found that there was no detected increase in glaucoma risk with current, recent, or past use of systemic fluoroquinolones, but did find a minimal statistically significant increased risk with distant use.
Generics vs. brand-name drugs-different but still safe
September 19th 2014Despite some perceptions, generic pharmaceutical drugs are not necessarily less effective than their branded counterparts. But their true claim to fame is in cheaper pricing, undercutting the brand-name alternatives sometimes by orders of magnitude. But according to Dr. Milton Hom, OD, FAAO, price shouldn't take on the main consideration.
