OSPE: 15

The device is used to correct emmetropia. What is it?

ANSWER

Is an intracorneal ring which is used to flatten the

cornea and reduces refractive error.

Figure 1Slit-lamp photo of the right eye showing an area of 90% thinning peripherally, extending from the 6:00 to the 1:00 o'clock position. Neovascular changes within the furrow are present with an intact epithelium and a leading edge of lipid deposition anteriorly. The left eye showed similar but much milder changes with a 10% thinning over a three clock hour area.

Examination Vision: CF at 4 ft OD ph 20/200; 20/30 OS ph 20/20 .

Pupils: Normal OU, No APD .

Slit lamp examination: See Figure 1.

Applanation Tonometry: 15 mmHg OU .

Fundus examination: Normal OU .

Corneal Topography: See Figure 2

Question1) What is your diagnosis?2) What is the male female ratio of the disease?3) Which portion of the cornea it starts from?4) What type of astigmatism is there?5) What are the potentially sight threatening

complications in this disorder?6) How would you manage this condition in early and

late stages?

Answer

1) Terrien's marginal corneal degeneration.

2) Male : Female 3:1.

3) Superonasal portion of the cornea,

4) Against the rule astigmatism.

5) Spontaneous perforation or perforation due to minor

trauma occurs in approximately 15% of patients.

06) In early stage, spectacle or RGP or Piggy bag

contact lens. In late stage, Surgery, involving either

crescent-shaped excision of the gutter with suturing

of the margins or peripheral lamellar transplantation,

gives variable results.
