El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar la relación entre el pronóstico visual según el Ocular Trauma Score (OTS) y la agudeza visual (AV) a los 6 meses de ocurrido el trauma ocular, en pacientes atendidos en la Unidad de Trauma Ocular del Hospital del Salvador, Santiago de Chile. Se hizo uso de un estudio descriptivo, longitudinal, retrospectivo. Se accedió a los registros clínicos de pacientes atendidos por trauma ocular grave entre el 1 de enero de 2014 al 15 de marzo 2015. 145 pacientes conformaron una muestra de 153 ojos. Se estableció la relación entre OTS obtenido y la AV a 6 meses del trauma mediante el coeficiente de correlación de Spearman. De los ojos estudiados, el grupo mayor N=68 (44,4%) calificó para OTS 3 y el menor N=16 (10,5%) para OTS 1. Se presentaron cinco categorías de visión, en un tiempo inicial la mayoría de los casos presentaron AV de luz, mala proyección-cuenta dedos (n=89). Tras seis meses dicha distribución se desplazó hacia la categoría 20/40 - 20/20 (n=68). Se encontró una fuerte asociación (r=0,711 p=0,000) entre el OTS calculado y la AV luego de seis meses de seguimiento. El OTS demostró poseer un gran valor predictivo y es una herramienta aplicable en nuestro medio, los datos obtenidos indican que existe un mejor pronóstico visual que los obtenidos en otro estudio. Cabe destacar que es la primera instancia en que se evalúa la aplicación del OTS en Chile.
This work aimed to determine the relationship between the visual prognosis according to the Ocular Trauma Score (OTS) and visual acuity (AV) 6 months after the ocular trauma in patients treated at the Eye Trauma Unit from the Hospital del Salvador, in Santiago, Chile. A descriptive, longitudinal and retrospective study was performed. We accessed registers of clinical patients attended for severe eye trauma from 1 January 2014 to 15 March 2015. 145 patients constitute a sample of 153 eyes. A connection was established between the OTS obtained and the AV 6 months after the trauma via the Spearman correlation coefficient. From the eyes studied, the greatest group N=68 (44.4%) qualified for OTS 3 and the smallest N=16 (10.5%) for OTS 1. Five eye categories were presented, in the beginning, most of the cases presented visual acuity with bad projection hand motion (n=89). After six months of distribution, it moved to the category 20/40 20/20 (n=68). A strong relation (r=0,711 p=0,000) was found between the estimated OTS and the AV after six months of tracking. The OTS proved to have great predictive valor and is an applicable tool in our area, the data obtained showed that there is a better visual prognosis than the obtained in other studies. It is worth noting that this is the first stage where the application of OTS is assessed in Chile.

Background: The development of Holmes tremor (HT) after a direct lesion of the midbrain has rarely been reported in the literature, although several etiologies have been linked with HT, such as stroke, brainstem tumors, multiple sclerosis, head trauma, or infections. Phenomenology Shown: A 31-year-old male, having been stabbed in the right eye, presented with a rest and action tremor in the left upper limb associated with left hemiparesis with corresponding post-contrast volumetric magnetic resonance imaging T1 with sagittal oblique reformation showing the knife trajectory reaching the right midbrain. Educational Value: Despite the rarity of the etiology of HT in the present case, clinicians working with persons with brain injuries should be aware of this type of situation.

PURPOSE: To describe the findings of fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging in patients with blunt ocular trauma. METHODS: In this non-interventional retrospective study, we reviewed medical records and imaging examination results. The data analyzed included gender, age, laterality, trauma etiology, time between trauma and imaging, visual acuity, changes in the retinal periphery, fundus examination results, and FAF imaging findings. FAF imaging was performed using a Topcon TRC-50DX Retinal Camera (Tokyo, Japan). RESULTS: Eight eyes from 8 patients were studied. The mean age was 27.6 years (range, 19-43 years). Men (n=7) were more frequently affected by blunt ocular trauma than women (n=1). Physical aggression was the most common trauma etiology (n=3), followed by accidents with fireworks (n=2). Other causes were car accidents (n=1), occupational trauma caused by a grinder (n=1), or being hit by a stone (n=1). Visual acuity ranged from 20/80 to light perception. Traumatic pigment epitheliopathy (TPE) was identified in 5 cases, choroidal rupture in 3 cases, subretinal hemorrhage in 3 cases, and Purtscher's retinopathy in 1 case. Hypoautofluorescence was observed in cases of choroidal rupture, recent subretinal hemorrhage, and intraretinal hemorrhage, and in two cases of TPE. Hyperautofluorescence was observed in cases of old subretinal hemorrhage and at the edge of the lesion in two cases of choroidal rupture. Mild hyperautofluorescence was observed in the posterior pole in Purtscher's retinopathy. Three cases of TPE exhibited hypoautofluorescence with diffuse hyperautofluorescent areas. CONCLUSION: FAF imaging is a non-invasive method for assessing changes in the posterior segment of the eye resulting from blunt ocular trauma. Furthermore, this technique provides valuable information. We described the findings of FAF imaging in cases of TPE, choroidal rupture, subretinal hemorrhage, and Purtscher's retinopathy.

Objetivo: Descrever os achados do exame de autofluorescência do fundo de olho (AFF) em pacientes vítimas de trauma ocular contuso. Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo, não intervencionista, realizado através da revisão de prontuários e exames de imagem. Os dados analisados foram: sexo, idade, lateralidade, etiologia do trauma, tempo decorrente entre o trauma e a realização do exame, acuidade visual, alterações na periferia da retina, diagnóstico fundoscópico e achados ao exame de AFF (realizada no aparelho Topcon TRC-50DX Retinal Camera). Resultados: Oito olhos de 8 pacientes foram estudados. A idade média foi de 27,6 anos (de 19 a 43 anos), o sexo masculino (n=7) foi mais acometido do que o feminino (n=1), agressão física foi a etiologia mais comum do trauma (n=3), seguido de acidente com fogos de artifício (n=2). Outras causas foram acidente automobilístico (n=1), trauma ocupacional com lixadeira (n=1) e pedrada (n=1). A acuidade visual variou de 20/80 a percepção luminosa. Epiteliopatia pigmentar traumática (EPT ) foi identificada em 5 casos, rotura de coroide em 3, hemorragia subretiniana em 3 e retinopatia de Purtscher em 1 caso. Hipoautofluorescência foi observada nos casos de rotura de coroide, hemorragia subretiniana recente, hemorragia intrarretiniana e em 2 casos de EPT. Hiperautofluorescência foi visualizada nos casos de hemorragia subretiniana em degradação, na borda de 2 casos de roturas de coroide e discretamente no polo posterior na retinopatia de Purtcher. Três casos de EPT apresentaram hipoautofluorescência com pontos hiperautofluorescentes difusos. Conclusão: O exame de AFF permite avaliar as alterações do segmento posterior do olho decorrentes do trauma ocular contuso de forma não invasiva, somando informações valiosas. Foram descritos achados do exame ...

OBJETIVO: Traçar perfil clínico, anatômico e funcional da comoção retiniana. MÉTODOS: Pacientes com trauma ocular contuso e quadro fundoscópico de comoção retiniana unilateral há menos de 72 horas foram submetidos ao exame de acuidade visual, biomicroscopia, oftalmoscopia binocular indireta, retinografia, angiografia fluoresceínica, tomografia de coerência óptica e eletrorretinografia de campo total. A eletrorretinografia foi repetida após 15 e 30 dias. A angiografia após 30 dias. RESULTADOS: Foram incluídos 16 pacientes no estudo. No primeiro exame, havia diferença estatisticamente significante entre o olho atingido e o olho controle na amplitude de todas as respostas, sem alteração da relação b/a, e na latência da resposta de cones isolados e do flicker a 30 Hz. No segundo exame, manteve-se a diferença para os potenciais oscilatórios, que desapareceu no último exame. Na angiofluoresceinografia, todos os olhos acometidos mostravam áreas de hiperfluoresceência por transmissão alternadas com áreas de hipofluorescência por bloqueio. Este defeito mantém-se após 30 dias. A tomografia de coerência óptica mostrou diminuição da refletividade na camada dos fotorreceptores. CONCLUSÕES: As alterações encontradas refletiram acometimento de fotorreceptores e de células ganglionares, mas não da camada de células bipolares, além de mobilização precoce de pigmento do epitélio pigmentado da retina. As alterações eletrorretinográficas desapareceram após 30 dias do trauma.
PURPOSE: To investigate clinical, anatomic and electroretinographic changes in eyes that suffered blunt ocular trauma with commotio retinae. METHODS: Patients who presented commotio retinae after unilateral blunt ocular trauma less then 72 hours before were submitted to visual acuity testing, biomicroscopy, binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy, fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography and full-field electroretinography. Full-field ERG was repeated after 15 and 30 days. RESULTS: Sixteen patients were included in the study. On the first examination there was a statistically significant difference between affected and fellow eye in all response amplitudes, without b/a ratio alteration, and a delay in single-flash cone response and 30-Hz flicker implicit time. On the second examination, the difference between the eyes remained for oscillatory potentials, but disappeared on the last examination. In fluorescein angiography, all patients presented mottled hyperfluorescence and hypofluorescent areas, due to alterations in the pigment barrier. On optical coherence tomography, we found optically empty spaces at the site of the lesion. CONCLUSION: Found changes suggested photoreceptor and ganglion cells, but not Müller cell functional alterations, as well as pigment mobilization. These changes disappeared 30 days after the trauma.

The preoperative, operative and postoperative ocular complications in 48 eyes of 39 leprosy patients who underwent standard extracapsular cataract extraction and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, by the same surgeon, were studied retrospectively. Seventeen were male and 22 were female. Thirteen (33%) were paucibacillary (PB) while 26 (67%) were multibacillary (MB) patients. Three patients were smear-positive at the time of surgery. Grade 2 deformity that included claw hands, absorbed fingers, saddle noses and foot drop were present in 64% of the patients. None of the patients had any previous intraocular inflammation although one patient had previously had a Type 1 reaction and 5 patients had previously had Type 2 reactions. Preoperative complications like corneal opacities (3 eyes) and lagophthalmos (5 eyes) were not associated with lower vision postoperatively. No significant operative complications like vitreous loss, endothelial damage or iris tear were encountered, except in one eye where there was a posterior capsular tear. Seventeen eyes (35%) developed uveitis of 3+ or more in the immediate postoperative period, but abated with routine topical steroid eye drops. Six months after surgery 7 out of 47 eyes (15%) had developed posterior capsular opacities. There were no significant differences (p = > 0.05) in the visual acuity outcomes or in ocular complications when MB patients were compared with PB patients. Smear-positive patients were not significantly different from smear-negative patients when postoperative complications were compared. Visual outcomes in the 23 eyes followed up at two years after surgery were 6/18 or higher, except in one eye which had sustained a severe injury one year after surgery. IOLs were found to be safe and beneficial in this series of patients, but a much larger prospective study with matched normal controls is needed to prove the safety and efficacy of IOLs in leprosy patients.
