More and more people suffered from the car otid artery obstruction. It is reported that it's around 69% of these patients the first clinical manifes tation of carotid occlusive disease is the ocular ischemic syndrome. Owing to th e most symptoms of the ocular ischemic syndrome are very obscure, so there are a lways overlook or made a misdiagnosis of this entity in clinical. Fundus fluores cein angiography (FFA) is the best procedure to find this entity. We should pay close attention to notice the early phase of FFA. It is the most specific FFA si gn in ocular ischemic syndrome, and it is a distinctly unusual finding to find t he ocular ischemic syndrome. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2008, 24: 79-81)
PURPOSE:In search of the mechanism for photic retinal injury. METHODS:A visible light damage model was established in the primary cultured healthy,adult human RPE cells by using intense fluorescence light (2 400 Lx). RESULTS:Electron microscopy revealed swelling of the mitochondria and obscurity of nuclear membranous structure in the light damaged cells. The decrease or dissolution of organelle,vacuolization of cytoplasm and myelinic degeneration were found in some severely damaged cells. The level of intracellular SOD was decreased to 41% of that of the controls (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:The structure of the RPE was damaged by the light radiation and the level of intracellular SOD was decreased. These suggested the light damage might be associated with the production of free radicals and the lipid perioxide reaction in membranous structure of cell. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12: 174-175 )
In recent years, more and more new diagnostic and examining techniques are popularized, which improves the level of ocular fundus disease diagnosis and treatment. Because of the uneven distribution of diagnostic and therapeutic instruments resources, low level of application techniques, and different professional level of the doctors, the improvement and development of the application of the equipments and level of the diagnosis and treatment were inhibited. Appropriate understanding and applying basic diagnostic techniques of ocular fundus disease and comprehensive promoting the professionalsprime; levels are an urgent problem needs to be solved.
PURPOSE:To discuss the clinical characteristics and differential diagnosis of peripapillary subretinal hemorrhage(PPSRH). METHOD:Retrospective analysis of the clinical documents including mainly the ocular manifestations and the findings of fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA)of 37 patients (38 eyes)with PPSRH. RESULTS:In all of these 37 patients,36 were myopes, 31 were young persons ,the average age was 21 years old,and 36 were affected unilaterally. The subretinal hemorrhage revealed itself in 4 types :PPSRH (5 eyes),PPSRH with disc iaemorrhage (21 eyes),PPSRH with vitreous hemorrhage (2 eyes), and PPSRH with disc hemorrhage and vitreous hemorrhage (10 eyes). In the FFA, the hemorrhages showed blocked fluorescence and the optic discs showed irregular hyperfluorescence at the late phase. All of the hemorrhages were absorbed within 3 weeks to 3 months without any treatment. CONCLUSIONS:According to the manifestation of the optic discs in FFA PPSRH might be complicatton of the buried optic disc drusen. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1997,13: 143-145 )
