๐Ÿ‘๏ธ LOOK CLOSELY AT THIS EYEโ€ฆ SOMETHING IS MISSING.

Not because of an injury.
Not because someone removed it.
But because the eye didnโ€™t fully develop that part before birth.

This is called UVEAL COLOBOMA.

๐Ÿ” What exactly is uveal coloboma?
Coloboma occurs when a normal developmental opening in the developing eye fails to close completely during pregnancy. The result is a missing or underdeveloped portion of eye tissue.

It can affect different parts of the eye, including the iris, ciliary body and choroid.

๐Ÿ‘€ What can someone with coloboma experience?

It depends on the location and extent of the defect. Some people may have little or no visual symptoms, while others may experience:

โ€ข Blurred or reduced vision
โ€ข Light sensitivity (photophobia)
โ€ข Visual field defects
โ€ข Difficulty seeing in low-light conditions
โ€ข Abnormal appearance of the pupil or retina

โš ๏ธ And here's the important partโ€ฆ

A person can be born with coloboma and not realize that anything is wrong, especially when the condition affects only part of the eye.

That is why a comprehensive eye examination is so importantโ€”particularly in children with unusual pupil appearance, reduced vision, or other developmental eye abnormalities.

๐Ÿง  FUN FACT:
The appearance of a coloboma can vary dramatically depending on which ocular structure is affected. Some are obvious from the outside, while others can only be discovered during a detailed retinal examination.

๐Ÿ“ธ The fundus image you're looking at shows what uveal coloboma can look like inside the eye.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Your eyes don't have to hurt before they need attention.
If you or your child has unexplained reduced vision, an unusual-looking pupil, or any visual abnormality, don't ignore it. Get a comprehensive eye examination.

Early detection helps us understand the condition, monitor vision, and identify associated eye problems. โค๏ธ

That tiny object that suddenly โ€œjumpsโ€ into your eye may look harmlessโ€ฆ until it causes a corneal abrasion, infection, inflammation, or even permanent vision problems.

From dust and sand to metal particles, wood fragments, chemicals, flying debris, and even accidental injuriesโ€”our eyes are constantly exposed to things that can cause damage.

And the scary part? Many eye injuries happen in seconds.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Protective eyewear is not only for the workplace.

Wear appropriate eye protection when:
๐Ÿ”น Grinding, drilling, welding, or cutting materials
๐Ÿ”น Working with chemicals or cleaning agents
๐Ÿ”น Playing contact or high-speed sports
๐Ÿ”น Handling machinery or tools
๐Ÿ”น Working in dusty or windy environments
๐Ÿ”น Doing anything where particles can fly toward your face

And please, never assume that because an object enters the eye, you can simply rub it out. Rubbing can turn a small problem into a much bigger injury.

If something enters your eye:
๐Ÿ‘‰ Stop rubbing.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Rinse gently with clean water or sterile saline if appropriate.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If the object is embedded, painful, or your vision changes, seek professional eye care promptly.

๐ŸŽฅ Watch the video closely: this is what removing a foreign body from the eye can look like.

Your eyes give you something irreplaceableโ€”your sight.

So make eye protection a habit, not an afterthought.

Protect your eyes before an accident happens. ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Have you ever seen white patches inside the eye and wondered what they could be?

One possible explanation is Myelinated Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (MRNFL).

Normally, the nerve fibers inside the retina do not contain myelin because myelin would interfere with the passage of light. However, in some people, myelin extends abnormally into the retina, appearing as bright white, feathery patches during an eye examination.

๐Ÿ” Should you be worried?

In many cases, MRNFL is simply a congenital finding and may remain unchanged throughout life. However, when extensive, it can sometimes be associated with:

โ€ข Reduced vision
โ€ข Nearsightedness (myopia)
โ€ข A lazy eye (amblyopia)
โ€ข Visual field defects

That is why a detailed eye examination is important. Not every white-looking area in the retina means the same thing, and only a proper retinal examination can help determine what is actually present.

๐Ÿ“ธ The back of your eye can reveal things you may never know you have!

Even when your vision seems perfectly fine, regular comprehensive eye examinations can help detect unusual retinal findings early.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ When was your last comprehensive eye check-up?

Take a close look at the optic disc and surrounding retina... ๐Ÿ” Something definitely doesn't look normal! ๐Ÿ‘€

In this young patient, some retinal blood vessels are abnormally dilated and directly connect an artery to a vein.

This is a retinal arteriovenous malformation, a rare congenital vascular abnormality.

What diagnosis would you have considered first when looking at this fundus photograph?

A sudden increase in pressure inside the chest or abdomen โ€” such as from heavy lifting, forceful coughing, vomiting, straining, or even intense physical exertion โ€” can cause tiny retinal blood vessels to rupture.

The result? A sudden, painless drop or disturbance in vision, often caused by a collection of blood in front of or within the retina.

๐Ÿ” What might you see on fundus examination?
You may notice a well-defined preretinal/subhyaloid haemorrhage, often appearing as a sharply demarcated red area over the macula or around the optic disc.

Interestingly, the patient may otherwise have a relatively healthy eye.

๐ŸŽฅ Take a closer look at the video.
Can you identify the characteristic retinal finding?

๐Ÿ’ก Clinical pearl: Not every sudden visual disturbance is caused by refractive error. A careful fundus examination can reveal the real cause.

What do you think this finding represents? ๐Ÿ‘‡

Take a close look at this video. ๐Ÿ‘€

This is SYMBLEPHARON โ€” an abnormal adhesion between the palpebral conjunctiva (inner surface of the eyelid) and the bulbar conjunctiva (surface of the eyeball).

It usually develops when the conjunctiva is severely inflamed or damaged, leading to healing with scar tissue that causes the eyelid and eyeball to become partially or completely stuck together.

๐Ÿ” COMMON CAUSES INCLUDE:
โ€ข Severe chemical or thermal eye injuries ๐Ÿ”ฅ
โ€ข Ocular cicatricial diseases
โ€ข Severe conjunctivitis
โ€ข Stevens-Johnson syndrome
โ€ข Ocular trauma or surgery
โ€ข Chronic inflammatory conditions

โš ๏ธ WHY DOES IT MATTER?

Symblepharon isn't just an unusual-looking eye finding. Depending on its severity, it can cause:
๐Ÿ‘‰ Restricted eye movements
๐Ÿ‘‰ Difficulty opening the eye completely
๐Ÿ‘‰ Abnormal eyelid position
๐Ÿ‘‰ Persistent irritation and discomfort
๐Ÿ‘‰ Corneal exposure and damage
๐Ÿ‘‰ Reduced vision in severe cases

๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธ MANAGEMENT

Treatment depends on the cause and severity. Mild cases may require treatment of the underlying inflammation and careful monitoring, while significant adhesions may require surgical release of the scar tissue. In some cases, measures such as amniotic membrane transplantation may be considered to reduce recurrent scarring.

๐ŸŽฅ Now watch the video closelyโ€ฆ

Have you seen a case of symblepharon before?

And here's the question for clinicians and students ๐Ÿ‘‡

What ocular condition or injury would you suspect if a patient presents with extensive symblepharon?
