Generally, diseases outlined within the ICD-10 codes H00-H06 within Chapter VII: Diseases of the eye, adnexa should be included in this category. Pages in category "Disorders of eyelid, lacrimal system and orbit"
Autosomal dominant optic atrophy can present clinically as an isolated bilateral optic neuropathy (non-syndromic form) or rather as a complicated phenotype with extra-ocular signs (syndromic form). Dominant optic atrophy usually affects both eyes roughly symmetrically in a slowly progressive pattern of vision loss beginning in childhood and is ...
Macular hard drusen in the right eye. 65-year-old diabetic woman. Drusen, from the German word for node or geode (singular, "Druse"), are tiny yellow or white accumulations of extracellular material that build up between Bruch's membrane and the retinal pigment epithelium of the eye. The presence of a few small ("hard") drusen is normal with ...
(H02.5) Stye, an acne type infection of the sebaceous glands on or near the eyelid. (H02.6) Xanthelasma of eyelid (H03.0*) Parasitic infestation of eyelid in diseases classified elsewhere Dermatitis of eyelid due to Demodex species ( B88.0+ ) Parasitic infestation of eyelid in: leishmaniasis ( B55.-+ ) loiasis ( B74.3+ ) onchocerciasis ( B73+ )
A necropsy study of 737 cases showed a 2.4% incidence with 2 out of 15 (13%) bilateral, [2] perhaps indicating the insidious nature of many cases. An autosomal dominant inheritance pattern with incomplete penetrance and associated inherited dysplasia of the optic disc and its blood supply is suspected.
Bilateral severe visual loss (simultaneous or sequential) usually occurs, but there are reports of unilateral visual loss. [3] Patients can have an associated relative afferent pupillary defect. [5] CRION is associated with at least one relapse, and up to 18 relapses have been reported in an individual. [6]
Radiation optic neuropathy (RON) is also thought to be due to ischemia of the optic nerve that occurs 3 months to 8 or more years after radiation therapy to the brain and orbit. It occurs most often around 1.5 years after treatment and results in irreversible and severe vision loss, which may also be associated with damage to the retina ...
The most common strabismus finding is large angle exotropia which can be treated by maximal bilateral eye surgery, but due to the progressive nature of the disease, strabismus may recur. [14] Those that have diplopia as a result of asymmetric ophthalmoplegia may be corrected with prisms or with surgery to create a better alignment of the eyes.
