Intra-ocular operations in Egypt.

The last-named may also be due to purulent ophthalmia, which is more prevalent in Eastern countries (Egypt, Palestine, Syria, India, etc.).

The sphincter iridis in brown and black eyes is stronger than that in green or blue eyes, and the extra-ocular ...

Intra-ocular foreign body.

IN the 10 years 1946 to 1955, 816 cases of intra-ocular foreign body were admitted to Moorfields Eye Hospital, and 272 of them, which are analysed in this report, have been followed up for at least 3 years, no other method of selection being used. If the out-patient notes were not sufficiently up to date, a letter was written to the patient at his last known address asking him to re-attend for ...

Intra-ocular Hydatid Cyst.

INTRA-OCULAR parasites have been referred to as ophthalmological curiosities (Costi, 1934; Duke-Elder, 1940). Larvae of Filaria loa, Filaria bancrofti, Dracunculus medinensis, and Taenia solium have been observed only infrequently inside the eyeball. Taenia echinococcus infestation is by far the rarest of the parasitic diseases of the eye, only eleven cases having so far been reported in the li...

Intra-ocular gnathostomiasis.

INTRA-OCULAR helminthiasis is very rare in temperate regions (Ashton, 1960) and comparatively rare in the tropics. Invasion of the human eye by Gnathostoma spinigerum is rarer still, although many cases in remote and backward areas may have gone unreported. The most recent was that reported from Burma by Ko Gyi (1960). Gnathostoma spinigerum was first recovered from a gastric tumour in the tige...
