Presentation
We present the case of a female patient who grinded a ferrous sulfate tablet and placed it at the conjunctival fornix of her left eye. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Conclusion: Ocular siderosis can present with a tonic pupil and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of this condition. [binajournal.org]
A neovascular membrane with lymphocytic infiltration is present within the cup (figs. 10 and 16). Some vit reous hemorrhage is present. Macrophages contain ing granular pigment which does not stain positively for iron is present in the vitreous. [kundoc.com]

Stone Cutter
One of these patients was a stone-cutter who had one, possibly two small intra- ocular foreign bodies in the upper eye lid revealed by X-ray examination. [docslide.net]
-
Inguinal Hernia
The general physical examination showed a blood pressure of 160/125 mm Hg, bilateral inguinal hernias and radiologie evidence of narrowing of the right hip space and eburnation and thinning of the right acetabulum. [kundoc.com]

Dentist
a 55-year-old Caucasian dentist, was ex amined in January, 1966. He had had a central vein occlusion in his right eye two and a half years previously. Four days before examination he began to have pain in the right eye. [kundoc.com]

Iridodonesis
Other findings on ocular examination not related to siderosis included corneal scars, iris defects, iridodonesis, dislocated lens, and macular scar. The intraocular pressures were within normal limits in all the patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Suggestibility
Since the ERP is generated by photolysis of visual pigment and requires orientation of the pigment molecules by outer segment disc membranes, the normal ERP amplitudes suggest that the photoreceptor outer segments have normal photopigment density, are [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
These findings suggested that iron toxicity produced more damage to the inner retina than to the outer retina. Key words Electroretinogram siderosis retina This is a preview of subscription content, log in to check access. [link.springer.com]
These findings suggest that iron retinotoxicity leads to a dysfunction of all layers but the changes may be reversible in the early period of the disease. [karger.com]

Anisocytosis
The red blood cells showed marked anisocytosis and poikilocytosis with target cells. Hemoglobin electrophoresis (agar gel) showed S-C hemoglobinopathy. The VDRL test for syphilis was negative. [kundoc.com]

Lymphocytic Infiltrate
There is also slight lymphocytic infiltration in the more superficial portions of the nerve but the latter is otherwise unaltered. (For comparison with fig. 16.) [kundoc.com]
Treatment
This study summarizes ocular siderosis with respect to pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and sequelae, with the aim of assisting clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of ocular siderosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The fact that spots of local scleral siderosis grew smaller during treatment of patients with general ocular siderosis suggests that desferrioxamine may be of value in the treatment of local siderosis. [docslide.net]

Herein, we report a case of siderosis bulbi after penetrating trauma that was lately treated with vitrectomy to remove the foreign body, and despite treatment resulted in ocular globe atrophy. [ingentaconnect.com]
Prognosis
These effects significantly decrease the quality of life of patients and lead to poor prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
It is easily explainable considering that the development of macular lesion is associated with worse visual prognosis. [docksci.com]
Some causal factors perhaps contributing to the good prognosis in this case are: (1) only a slight degree of ocular tissue damage, (2) early encapsulation of the iron fragment embedded within the pars plana ciliaris, (3) no rust spots on the fovea, and [wwe.geoscience.net]
