Suture Reaction in the Human Cornea

Moore, Thomas E.;Aronson, Samuel B.

1969 Archives of Ophthalmology

Abstract The corneal grafts of two patients in which different sutures were used were studied by clinical and histologic criteria. Patient 1, whose graft had been sutured with 8-0 virgin silk, demonstrated a markedly more severe inflammatory reaction than patient 2, whose graft had been sutured with 10-0 monofilament nylon.

Clinical Features of Superior Limbic Keratoconjunctivitis in Australia: A Probable Association With Thyrotoxicosis

Cher, Ivan

1969 Archives of Ophthalmology

doi: 10.1001/archopht.1969.00990020582002pmid: 5348829

Abstract In Sydney, Australia, ten patients affected by superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis (SLKC) have been observed in one ophthalmic practice during a four-year period. Among the ten patients, three were found to be actively thyrotoxic, and two others had already undergone treatment for proven hyperthyroidism. Reference is made to a possible etiological contribution by the special anatomy of the upper conjunctival fornix and by secretions entering the conjunctival sac. The association with thyrotoxicosis revives the matter of an immunological (possibly auto-immune) origin for SLKC. A viral-induced mechanism has not been excluded. References 1.

Acute Follicular Conjunctivitis of Epizootic Origin: Feline Pneumonitis

Ostler, H. Bruce;Schachter, Julius;Dawson, Chandler R.

1969 Archives of Ophthalmology

doi: 10.1001/archopht.1969.00990020587003pmid: 5388669

Abstract A bedsonial (chlamydial) agent was found to be the cause of an acute follicular conjunctivitis in man. It was resistant to sulfonamides and did not possess an iodine-staining matrix. It was readily recoverable from the patient's conjunctival sac and from a cat believed to have been the host animal. Experimentally, it produced a conjunctivitis in kittens and was readily recoverable from their conjunctival sacs. This agent is believed to be identical with the agent of feline pneumonitis.

Color Perception in Unilateral Aphakia

Spitalny, Lawrence A.;Devoe, John B.;Fenske, H. David

1969 Archives of Ophthalmology

doi: 10.1001/archopht.1969.00990020592004pmid: 5348830

Abstract This case report is an illustration of color perceived by an artist with monocular aphakia. Awareness of subtle differences in color has practical importance in vocations that depend upon accurate color recognition. An artist's interpretation and illustration of these differences offers a basis upon which our understanding of color perception may be more accurately defined and modified. The selection of a brown tint contact lens improved this patient's perceptual color balance toward preoperative values. References 1.

Mycobacterium fortuitum Infection of the Cornea: A Report of Two Cases

Zimmerman, Lorenz E.;Turner, Larry;McTigue, John W.

Abstract Although Mycobacterium fortuitum is being incriminated with increasing frequency as the cause of both minor and major infections in man, only two ocular infections by this acid-fast bacillus have been recorded. Both followed corneal injury by foreign bodies. The present paper records two new infections by M fortuitum, one of which was apparently superimposed on a very long-standing, recurrent ulcerative keratitis of undetermined cause, while the other followed penetrating keratoplasty for keratoconus. The infection led to perforation of the cornea and enucleation of the eye in the former; it was controlled by debridement and specific therapy in the latter. References 1.

Infection of the Orbit by an Atypical Mycobacterium

Abstract A Negro child developed a chronic, debilitating disease which simulated Schüller-Christian-Hand disease. Biopsy and culture of bilateral orbital masses revealed the presence of atypical mycobacteria of the Avian-Battey strain. The organisms were subsequently recovered from other body sites. The unusual clinical and histopathological features of this case were probably related to the biologic activity of this rare and atypical mycobacterium. References 1.

The Peripheral Eyeground in Chronic Respiratory Disease

Abstract Complete eye examination, including indirect ophthalmoscopy and scleral depression was performed in 71 patients, 40 years and over, with chronic pulmonary disease of varying etiology. Seventeen percent of these subjects had one or more retinal breaks. Among 106 subjects used as controls 10% had one or more retinal breaks. The first second vital capacity (FSVC) was measured in 204 patients with retinal detachment and it was not significantly lower than expected. However, an FSVC of less than 70% was seen in 44% of the patients with retinal detachment and lattice degeneration of the retina but only in 33% of patients with retinal detachment but without lattice degeneration.

Zonular Traction Tufts of the Peripheral Retina in Cadaver Eyes

Foos, Robert Y.

1969 Archives of Ophthalmology

doi: 10.1001/archopht.1969.00990020616009pmid: 5348832

Abstract Zonular traction tufts of the peripheral retina were found in 15% of the 750 autopsy cases studied, were bilateral in 15%, and, thus, were present in 9% of the 1,500 eyes examined. These lesions were present at birth and occurred with equal frequency in all decades beyond the first. Of the affected eyes, 64% had one lesion, 33% had two to three, and 3% had four or more lesions. Eighty-one percent of the tufts were found in the nasal quadrants, 58% in the inferior quadrants. Six percent of the tufts were longer than 1.00 mm; 16% were based farther than 0.5 mm behind ora serrata. Trophic complications included holes in the base of tufts (partial in 10%; full-thickness in 4%). Tractional complications included rupture of tuft (5%) and full-thickness tears (three cases).

Abstract A patient with Cogan's syndrome, additional ocular findings characteristic of periarteritis nodosa, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis associated with an acute febrile illness is presented. Though the categorical relationship of this patient's disease to periarteritis nodosa remains uncertain, the unique constellation of findings further emphasizes the intimate relationship of Cogan's syndrome to inflammatory vascular disease.
