Noninvasive assessment of tear stability with the tear stability analysis system in tear dysfunction patients.
PURPOSE To evaluate tear film stability in patients with tear dysfunction and an asymptomatic control group by using the novel, noninvasive Tear Stability Analysis System (TSAS). METHODS In this prospective case-control study, 45 patients with dysfunctional tear syndrome (DTS) were stratified into three groups (1, 2, and 3/4) based on clinical severity, with higher scores indicating more seve...
متن کاملEffect of Airflow Exposure on the Tear Meniscus
Purpose. To compare the effect of airflow exposure on the tear meniscus and blink frequency in normal and evaporative dry eye subjects. Methods. In 9 normal subjects and 9 short tear breakup time (SBUT) dry eye subjects, lower tear meniscus height (TMH) and area (TMA) and blink frequency were measured with anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) before and after 5 minutes of airflow...
متن کاملRelationship between tear volume and tear meniscus curvature.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between tear volume and tear meniscus curvature by means of the video meniscometer. METHODS Eleven eyes of 11 patients with severe dry eye were studied (all female; mean +/- SD age, 66.2 +/- 7.7 years; 7 left eyes and 4 right eyes), each of whose puncta had been therapeutically occluded. Four instillations of balanced salt solution were given at inter...
متن کاملThe Trapped Medial Meniscus Tear
Methods: Eight patients with trapped medial meniscus tears were identified from a single surgeon’s academic orthopaedic sports medicine practice between January 2009 and January 2012. Each patient underwent clinical evaluation, MRI, and arthroscopic treatment for meniscus injury. Clinical notes, MRI images, radiology reports, and operative findings were reviewed and compared in a descriptive fa...
متن کاملLateral meniscus root tear and meniscus extrusion with anterior cruciate ligament tear.
PURPOSE To retrospectively determine the prevalence of posterior lateral meniscus root tears (LMRTs), as depicted on magnetic resonance (MR) images, in patients with an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear and to investigate the association of LMRTs with lateral meniscus extrusion and other ligament injuries. MATERIALS AND METHODS Institutional review board approval was obtained; informed co...
