🥠 Eyelid pathology
almost always unilateral 📷
ant. uveitis → give mydriatic eyedrops + NSAID to prevent synnechia development (!closed angle glaucoma)
- after trauma
- pyogenes or StaphAureus
inflamm + pus
- pain
- lid edema + erythema
- suppuration of eyelid (localized [i.e. hordelum] or diffuse)
- systemic : Penicillin
- surgical : incision + drainage
ac. staphylococcal abscess of zeiss + lash follicle 📷
- non-pharma: hot compresses + epilation of eyelash
- local AB ointments 3x/day
= small abcess of Meibomian glands
- tender
- swelling within the tarsal plate
- local AB ointment
- surgical
meibomian cyst a chronic lipogranulomatous inflammatory lesion caused by blockage of gland orifices and stagnation of sebaceous secretions.
increase risk for chalazion for pat with acnea rosacea or seborrheic dermatitis
onset: painless nodule
- occasionally upper lid chalazion may press on the cornea and cause blurred vision ( induced astigmatism)
- painless, roundish, firm lesion in the tarsal plate.
- eversion of the lid may show associated polypoid granuloma (if lesion has ruptured through the tarsal conjunctiva.)
- +- associated blepharitis or acnea rosacea.
- small chalazia may disappear spontaneoulsly,
- persistent lesions ⇒ surgical treatment.
inflammation lid margin by staph aureus
- Erythematous → hyperemia
- Seborheic - crusts (hard+brittle) base of eyelash 📷
- Necrotic (rare)→ intrafollicular abcess, scars, necrosis, absence of eyelashes
inflammation of sourrounding:
- ext. hordeolum
- conjunctivitis
- marginal keratitis 📷
- topical ABs + steroids
- wash eyelashes with baby shampoo
lower eylids turned outward 📷
- asympt
- tearing / irritation
typically senile
paralytical (VII palsy)
scars (chemical burn)
Types:
1.congenital 2. acquired - involutional (senile)
surgery
grafts, suturing (tarsorrhaphy for paralytic)
- cicatriceal - chemical burnsurgical (lid grafts) tarsorrhaphy
- paralytic: CN VII palsy
tarsorrhaphy suturing of the eyelids
=lid margin is turned inward the globe ulceration of the cornea
senile
scars→ after conjunctivitis (i.e. clamydial conj)
spastic - only intermittent
Types : 1. congenital 2. acquired
- involutional (senile)
- cicatriceal
- spastic
Schnippschnapp surgery
= involuntary closure of the eyelid 📷
unknown etiology
- incontrolled blinking, twiching or closure of the eyelids
- involuntary contractions of the orbicularis oculi muscle
- botulinum toxin injection in orbiculari muscle
- surgical (excision of the orbicularis muscle of upper lid)
lid margin is abnormally low (malposition) → insufficient upper eyelid retraction
- congenital
- senile
- myogenic (myasthenia gravis)
- neurogenic (CN3)
- traumitc
- tumor
