Q

Is the lens a hydrophilic or lipophilic structure?

A

Lipophilic compounds can slowly pass into and through the lens cortex.

30
Q

What is the best way to get a drug to the vitreous?

A

Hydropphilic drug injection.

Oral hydrophilic drugs don’t pass blood retinal barrier.

31
Q

What kind of drugs have access to retina?

A

Lipophilic drugs cross much more easily in both directions.

Many drugs are toxic to the retina and ONH

32
Q

Which drug was the first prodrug?

A

Propine.

Drug going from inactive to active form once it hits the target tissue.

33
Q

What are examples of site-specific drugs?

A

Lotemax

Alrex

34
Q

Describe site-specific drugs

A

The effective form of the drug is rapidly and predictably transformed into its an inactive form.
Alrex
Lotemax

35
Q

What’s so good about BAK?

A

Quarternary surfactant
Very effective antimicrobial
Long shelf life making it stable

36
Q

What’s so bad about BAK?

A

Disrupts lipid layer of tear film
Mess with the cornea, conj
Increase penetration of drugs.

37
Q

What is the preservative that most ppl are allergic to?

A

Mercurials (Thimerosal).
Many countries use this.
Contact sensitivity increase

38
Q

List some other preservatives?

A

Chlorhexidine

Chlorbutanol

39
Q

T/F? Chlorbutanol does not disrupt tear film and has a short shelf life?

A

True

Combined with EDTA

40
Q

What is the name of disappearing preservatives?

A

Oxidative preservatives

41
Q

Name two examples of Oxidative preservatives?

A

Purite

Sodium Perborate

42
Q

How does Sodium perborate work?

A

Converted to H2O2 and then oxygen and water once in the eye.

43
Q

How does Purite work?

A

Dissipates into water and NaCl when exposed to light

44
Q

Which receptor inhibits sympathetic activity?

A

Beta receptor

45
Q

Which pathway contains a bigger innervation?

A

Para Sympathetic

46
Q

Which pathway has a faster response?

A

Para Sympathetic

47
Q

Phenylephrine acts on which receptor?

A

Alpha 1 receptor

48
Q

T/F?

Phenylephrine leads to a loss of accommodative abilities?

A

True
2D.
Tropicamide doesn’t have that great of an effect.

49
Q

Is there a difference b/w 2.5% and 10% phenyl in pupil dilation?

A

Nope

50
Q

Sympathetic activity works together with parasympathatetic activity?

A

True

51
Q

What are some other uses of phenyl?

A

Breaking posterior synechiae - use 10%
Peripheral corneal vasoconstriction during LASIK - use 10%
Prevention of miotic systs during POAG or accomm esotropia - use 2.5% soln
Ptosis from sympathetic denervation - use 1%
