  22. Corneal Scrapings (January 16) • No growth after 4 days

  23. Problem List • Blurring of vision • Corneal Ulcer • Microbial keratitis • Cicatricialectropion • Hypertension • Diabetes

  24. Blurring of vision

  25. Microbial keratitis/Corneal Ulcer • Keratitis  Inflammation of the cornea. • Central ulcers usually are infectious ulcers secondary to corneal epithelial damage.

  26. Common symptoms • Since the cornea has many pain fibers, can cause pain and photophobia. • Occasional blurring of vision, especially if centrally located. • Although tearing and photophobia commonly accompany corneal disease, there is usually no discharge except in purulent bacterial ulcers.

  27. The lesion is situated centrally, away from the vascularized limbus. • It is often accompanied by hypopyon, a collection of inflammatory cells seen as a pale layer in the inferior anterior chamber.

  28. Pertinent History • Contact lens wear • Trauma • Topical ocular medications • Decreased immunologic defenses • Aqueous tear deficiencies • Recent corneal disease • Structural alteration or malposition of the eyelids

  29. Workup • Examination of corneal scrapings, stained with Gram's and Giemsa's stains • Cultures for bacteria are usually obtained in all cases at first presentation. • It is important that therapy is not withheld if an organism cannot be identified on microscopic examination of corneal scrapings, although it may have to be empirical based upon the clinical features.

  30. Central suppurative ulceration was once caused almost exclusively by S.pneumoniae infection complicating corneal trauma, particularly occurring in patients with obstructed nasolacrimal ducts.

  31. Dacryocystorhinostomy • DCR is a surgical procedure to restore the flow of tears into the nose from the lacrimal sac when the nasolacrimal duct is blocked. • 77.5% Ex.DCR • 90% in Ex.DCR with silicone intubation

  32. Treatment

  33. Ectropion • Usually bilateral and is a frequent finding in older persons. • May be caused by relaxation of the orbicularis oculi muscle, either as part of the aging process or following seventh nerve palsy. • The symptoms are tearing and irritation. • Exposure keratitis may occur.

  34. Cicatricialectropion • Caused by contracture of the anterior lamella of the lid. • Treatment requires surgical revision of the scar and often skin grafting.

  35. Hypertension • Currently managed on clonidine, amlodipine • Diabetes • No medications given

  36. Course in the Wards • Day 2 • Patient noted blurring of vision on the left eye, abrupt, no trauma, pain, pruritus, tearing,photophobia

  37. Day 3 • GS/CS of corneal scrapings • Start tobramycin

  38. Day 4

  39. Day 5 • Ulcer, OD • Dimensions: 2.2mm x 2mm

  40. Day 6 • Plan: for cicatricialectropion repair once corneal ulcer resolves • Do lid taping before sleeping

  41. Day 7 • Decreased level of hypopyon

  42. Day 9 • Ulcer, OD • Dimensions: 1.6mm x 1.6mm • Decreased level of hypopyon

  43. Day 10 • Ulcer, OD • Dimensions: >1mm X >1mm • (+) hypopyon
