Objectives: To study the prevalence of common ocular disorders in primary and upper primary school children between 5 to12years of age. To screen primary school children studying in government schools. Materials and methods: In the present study, a total of 50 government schools were visited. A total of 5000 children were examined. The materials consisted of Ophthalmic screening kit which has b...

PURPOSE Fluorescein angiographic studies revealed prolonged arteriovenous passage (AVP) times and increased fluorescein filling defects in normal tension glaucoma (NTG) compared to healthy controls. The purpose of this study was to correlate baseline AVP and fluorescein filling defects with visual field progression in patients with NTG. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with a follow-up period of...

of fresh defects (Fig. 7). If the occurrence of maximal defects were the only sequence occurring in glaucoma then the chances of finding reversible and predictive signs in the visual field would be small and unlikely, but the early incomplete evidence, such as we have at this time, suggests that established defects do undergo change; this gives us hope that by employing more sophisticated physi...

We report the clinical and radiologic features of a 31-year-old woman who suffered incongruous binasal and bitemporal visual field defects and severe sudden visual loss due to hypoperfusion of bilateral lateral geniculate bodies following anaphylactic shock induced by 500 mg amoxicillin per os. Complete neuroophthalmologic examinations were performed regularly for visual acuity, color vision, p...
