Presentation
The types and patterns of ocular injury present differently, depending on whether the trauma is blunt or penetrating. [cochranelibrary.com]
Eyes
- Eye Pain
As the anterior chamber fills with white blood cells and pigmented cells, individuals describe a dull or aching eye pain, photophobia, diminished vision, and tearing within three days of the eye injury (Logothetis 2014). [cochranelibrary.com]
Skin
- Flushing
Typical definitions of resolution include absence of signs (anterior chamber cells, ciliary flushing) and symptoms (ocular pain, floaters). [cochranelibrary.com]
Treatment
Mean change in IOP from baseline to one week after treatment, as defined by trial investigators. Proportion of participants with serious ocular adverse events at one week after treatment. [cochranelibrary.com]
Treatment of posttraumatic iridocyclitis involves a cycloplegic (usually scopolamine 0.25% 3 times a day or homatropine 5% 3 times a day) and topical corticosteroids (eg, prednisolone acetate 1% 4 to 8 times a day). [msdmanuals.com]
English if a diagnosis of ulcerative keratitis is confirmed, treatment with tarceva should be interrupted or discontinued. [mymemory.translated.net]
Pathophysiology
Presentation and diagnosis The pathophysiology of traumatic iridocyclitis involves the unmasking or worsening of an underlying inflammatory process arising from a systemic or infectious cause (Sepah 2013). [cochranelibrary.com]
Prevention
In addition, mydriatic agents may prevent iris‐lens adhesions (i.e. posterior synechiae) by keeping the iris dilated and minimizing contact between them. The net effect is to reduce pain and discomfort, and shorten the duration of ciliary spasms. [cochranelibrary.com]
