  1. Systemic Diseases Prof. Faiz Shakarchi

  2. Diabetic Retinopathy One of the most important causes of blindness

  3. Risk factors: 1-Type of diabetes. More common in type I ( insulin dependent, 40 %), than type II (non-insulin dependant, 20%). 2-Duration of diabetes. After 10 years 50% have retinopathy, while after 30 years 90% have retinopathy 3-Poor metabolic control 4-Hypertension 5-Nephropathy 6-Pregnancy 7-Other factors; smoking, obesity, hyperlipidaema.

  4. 1- Micro-vascular leakage due to loss of pericytes which are responsible for structural integrity of capillaries. There will be saccular out pouching of the capillaries (microaneurysms) and increase leakage of fluids. Chronic retinal edema lead to deposition of hard exudates which compose of lipoproteins. 2- Micro-vascular occlusion due to thickening of the basement membrane, and increase stickiness of platelets. Micro vascular occlusion cause retinal ischemia and secretion of vaso-formative factors which promote abnormal neo-vasculartization on the surface of the retina (NVE) and on the optic disc (NVD). Pathogenesis:It is a microangiopathy, affecting pre-capillary arterioles, capillaries, and post-capillary venules.

  5. Classification of diabetic retinopathy; 1-Background (non-proliferative) microaneurysms, Retinal hemorrhages (blot and dots ), and hard exudates.

  6. 2-Maculopathy, clinical significant macular edema. Microaneurysms, hemorrhages, and hard exudates at the macula. Vision gradually reduced

  7. 3-Pre-proliferative. Large retinal hemorrhage, cotton wool spots (infarction in the nerve fiber layer), venous congestion and dilatation.

  8. 4-Proliferative retinopathy. Abnormal neo-vasculartization on the surface of the retina (NVE) and on the optic disc (NVD).

  9. 5-Advanced retinopathy. Vitreous hemorrhage and tractional retinal detachment.

  10. Management: Early Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy regular ophthalmic examination for detection retinopathy. • Treatment : Background; good diabetic control Maculopathy; Laser phototherapy. Laser burns are directed at the sites of leakage ( micro-aneurysms), avoiding the central fovea. Pre-proliferative and Proliferative retinopathy; Laser phototherapy. The entire retina is treated with laser burns except the macula and area adjacent to the optic disc. Pan retinal photocoagulation (PRP) The Laser burns destroy the ischemic retina and prevent release of vaso-formative factors and causing regression of the abnormal vessels.

  11. Advanced retinopathy; Surgery (Pars Plana Vitrectomy). Removal of the vitreous hemorrhage, vitro-retinal bands and endo-laser through small incisions at pars plana (posterior part of the ciliary body).

  12. Dysthyroid Ophthalmopathy Autoimmune disorder usually associated with abnormal thyroid function Pathogenesis; • Hypertrophy of extraocular muscles • Deposition of glycosaminoglycans • Infiltration with mononuclear cells, macrophage

  13. Clinical features 1-Exophthalmus; most common cause of unilateral and bilateral proptosis 2-Conjunctival hyperemia and edema 3-Lid retraction 4-Lid lag 5-Ophthalmoplegia 6-Optic nerve neuropathy

  14. Ocular Manifestations of hypertension • 1- Branch retinal vein occlusion • 2- Retinal artery occlusion • 3- Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy • 4- Arteriosclerosis of the retinal arterioles • 5- Hypertensive retinopathy; depend on age of the patient, severity and duration of hypertension.

  15. Hypertensive retinopathy • Grade I: Retinal arteriolar attenuation, copper wire, silver wire arteriols • Grade II: Arterio-venous (A/V) crossing changes, constriction of the veins at the A/V crossing. • Grade III; Retinal hemorrhages, hard exudates, and cotton wool spots. • Grade IV: Optic disc swelling (Malignant hypertension)

  16. Sickle cell anemia • Proliferative retinopathy; usually associated with SC and SThal disease. • Tortuous veins • New vessels formation, classically sea-fan configuration • Retinal hemorrhage

  17. Leukemia: • Bleeding in anterior chamber (Hyphemia) • Aggregation of tumor cells in anterior chamber (Pseudo-hypopyon) • Retinal hemorrhage (flam shaped) • Roth spots (hemorrhage with pale ischemic center)

  18. Laser • Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation Characteristics of Laser: • Monochromatic, one color • Coherent, waves in the same phase • Collimate, waves are parallel • High intensity

  19. Mode of action Photocoagulation; The effect of laser in the eye depend on absorption of light energy by ocular pigments (Xanthophyll, melanin, and hemoglobin), to produce therapeutic burn to a pre-selected area with minimum damage on the surrounding tissue. • Argon laser wavelength 488-515 nm. Diabetic retinopathy Photodisruption produce plasma collection of ions and electrons • YAG laser Laser iridotomy, posterior capsulotomy Photoablation: Eximer laser Refractive surgery, elimination the refractive errors by change the surface topography of the cornea.
