A cataract operation is indicated to
Restore visual acuity and for congenital and traumatic cataracts.
A child with strabismus has to wear prescribed glasses
Accommodative esotropia - 50% success?
A newborn child with bilateral dense cataract should be operated
as soon as possible (usually before 2 months as it leads to amblyopia).
A normal human cornea is
11.5mm diameter, and 0.5-0.6mm thick in centre and 0.6-0.8mm at the periphery.
Refractive power is ~43D.
A patient with anterior uveitis feels
Pain constantly, worse during accommodation and sharp light.
A patient with suspected retinal detachment is examined by
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) or with the indirect ophthalmoscope.
A peripheral iridectomy is indicated in
Angle closure glaucoma
Acute conjunctivitis is
Common, bilateral, mucopurulent, glossy, transparent cornea, normal IOP and normal visual acuity.
Treated with antibiotics.

Anisometripia means
a different refractive power in each eye
Anterior chamber is the chamber between
The cornea and the iris
Aphakiais
the absence of the lens of the eye due to surgical removal, a perforating wound or ulcer, or congenital anomaly.
Arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) is treated by
Steroids (start with oral prednisone 80mg/day and/or i.v. hydrocortisone 250mg/day with slowly decreasing dose according to the ESR value)
Astigmatism is
The different refraction of the eye at different meridians
Atopic or anaphylactic immunological (type 1) is
Acute allergic conjunctivitis
Bacterial conjunctivitis is treated by
Antibiotic drops and ointment
Bacterial corneal ulcers we do NOT use
Corticosteroids
