understanding of watery eye ?

How to differentiate epiphora

from lacrimation?

* Epiphora . Watering that occurs secondary to

abnormal excretory system in thepresence of normal tear secretion.

* Lacrimation. Watering that occurs secondary toexcessive tear production in the

Reflex irritation of conj. or cornea (lacrimation):

Rubbing lashes or trichiasis.

PTDs or PTCs.

Conjunctivitis.

Corneal FB or ulcer.

• Inadequte tear drainage (Epiphora):

–Loss of sharpness of lid margin: blepharitis,.

–Ectropiopn : due to failure of lid

apposition onto the globe.

–Failure of the pump mechanism.

–Obstruction : of lacrimal passages.

–Nasal causes: nasal polyp, tumour,

hypertrophied IT bone. or marked deviated septum.

How to reach diagnosis ?• Please at first you must exclude cases of

lacrimation

1-HISTORY

Present history

*Unilateral cases which is more worse out doors

especially in cold windy days are very suggestiveof epiphora

*bilateral cases associated with itching , irritationand photophobia are very suggestive of lacrimation

Past history *Bell,s balsy

*drug intake

How to reach diagnosis ?

2-Examination:

*Inspection (slit lamp).

-Eye lid:

(ectropion,trichiasis,eversion of thelower punctum and lower lid

laxity)-Medial canthus :

:for lacrimal sac swelling (acute

dacryocystitis,mucocele or rarely tumour )

2-PALPATION:

*Palpation of lacrimal sac andregurge test.

Reflux of a mucopurellentmaterial is diagnostic and nofurther investigations are

required.

3-Propping & irrigation.

4-Jones dye test: 1ry. & 2ry.

5-Radiological ex.

6-Nasal examination.

Case• This 26 year old woman was referred

to the eye clinic because of a leftchronic ocular irritation. On slit-lampexamination, the above picture is seen

• What is the cause of her left chronicocular irritation?

ocular irritation?

Pubic louse (Phthirus pubis)and multiple eggs attached tothe eyelashes

•It is most commonly found inthe groin and can be sexually transmitted. Other areas whereit can be found include axillae,

eyelashes and eyebrows. Itcontains claws that allow it tocling to the hairs of these areas.

• The louse lays its eggs within afew days of becoming sexually mature. The tiny, white eggs or

nits are cemented to the base of the hair shafts. After hatching,the nymphs pass through two orthree stages (instars) before

reaching adulthood

How would you treat this condition?

Several options are available:

Manual removal of the liceand nits with forceps

Aapplying petroleum to theedges of the lid margin cankill the lice but has no effecton the nits

How would you treat thiscondition?

Aanticholinesterase such asphysiostigmine 0.25%ointment can be used to kill

the lice

Malathion 1% which is an

organophosphorus can kill both the lice and the nits

Ingrowing

eyelashes and

entropion, upper lid.
