Buphthalmos: a Twelve-year Review at Ibadan Abstract Objective: To review the presentation, management, follow-up and outcome of management of children presenting with buphthalmos at the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan. [ajol.info]

In addition, the patient presented a 3 mm epithelial defect in his left eye (OS) and subcapsular cataract OU. [scielo.br]

It can be presented at birth or appear in the early childhood. In most cases the buphthalmos affects both eyes, but the effect can be different on both eyeballs. [humanitas.net]

• Sparse Hair

  DISCUSSION Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a congenital syndrome characterized in general terms by sparse hair, severe oligodontia, missing or scanty eye brows, lashes and reduced sweating. [scielo.br]

• Sparse Fine Hair

  He had been diagnosed with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in childhood, based on sparse, fine hair, brow and eyelashes hypotrichosis, poor tolerance to heat due to low ability to sweat. [scielo.br]

Treatment Treatment involves surgically opening a hole in the iris to allow flow of aqueous humor, thus relieving the pressure in the posterior chamber of the eye. Early treatment is critical for preserving vision. [wikidoc.org]

Treatment is both medical and surgical. 0 0 Congenital open-angle glaucoma that results from dysgenesis of the angle structures accompanied by increased intraocular pressure and enlargement of the eye. Treatment is both medical and surgical. [dictionary.university]

TREATMENT: Surgical treatment, at the earliest possible time, is essential if vision is to be saved. IMPLICATION: If visual fields are restricted, Orientation and Mobility instruction is indicated. [tsbvi.edu]

Treatment Treatment Options: No information regarding treatment is available but cataract and corneal surgery may be beneficial. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

The earlier the defect appears, the less favorable the prognosis. Long-term visual prognosis is fair. Depending on when treatment is instituted, there may be lowered acuity or restricted visual fields. [tsbvi.edu]

Prognosis Guarded Treatment Anterior chamber centesis is performed to decompress the anterior chamber If hydrophthalmos is due to adhesion of the iris to the cornea or other structural deformities, treatment is confined to removal of diseased eyeball. [ecoursesonline.iasri.res.in]

Prognosis The prognosis for primary congenital glaucoma depends on the age of onset. Glaucoma that presents at birth is more difficult to treat, with at least half of the affected eyes becoming legally blind. [eyewiki.aao.org]

Prognosis: Goniotomies and trabeculotomies are not always successful. [alpfmedical.info]

Prognosis is excellent if surgery is performed before the cornea is damaged. [wikidoc.org]

Historically, it was just after the 19th century with the invention of the ophthalmoscope and the tonometer that the etiology of the buphthalmos was related to glaucoma and its distinction of the normally sized protuding globe and other forms eye enlargement [scielo.br]
