| Most ocular complications involve the cornea but may also include the conjunctiva, uvea, sclera, retina, and surrounding structures. |
|
| In a cryopexy procedure, a probe with a frozen tip is placed externally on the sclera over the area of a retinal hole or tear. |
|
| The remaining chapters include discussions of tumors of the orbit, eyelid, conjunctiva, cornea and sclera, uvea, and optic nerve. |
|
| The whole eye is not used, only the cornea, the transparent front of the eye, and the sclera, the white part of the eye. |
|
| Over the sclera lies the conjunctiva, a clear mucous membrane that protects the eye from becoming dry. |
|
| The absence of pigment in the human sclera highlights the iris and thereby enhances the interpretation of eye movements. |
|
| As far as iridology is concerned, it doesn't matter whether the iris, sclera, eyelid or the nostril are examined. |
|
| Under direct microscopic visualization, three tiny incisions are made through the sclera a few millimeters behind the limbus. |
|
| External examination includes a penlight evaluation of the lids, conjunctiva, sclera, cornea, and iris. |
|
| At the external border between the cornea and the sclera is the external scleral sulcus depression. |
|
| The limbus is the thin area that connects the cornea and the sclera, the white part of the eye. |
|
| Examine the bony orbit, lids, lacrimal apparatus, conjunctiva, sclera, cornea, iris, pupil, lens and fundi. |
|
| The theory is that a white sclera surrounding a darker iris and pupil helps people work out where everyone else is looking. |
|
| Pseudostrabismus occurs most often when a broad nasal bridge covers the nasal sclera unequally. |
|
| In those diseases causing thinning of the cornea or sclera, perforations have been known to occur with the use of topical steroids. |
|
| Tissues that are not considered leukocyte-rich include, among others, bone, cartilage, corneas, ligaments, sclera, skin, and tendons. |
|
| More anteriorly, the optic nerve is surrounded only by the smooth meningeal or inner layer of the dura, which blends with the sclera of the eyeball. |
|
| The front transparent part of the eye, protective envelope of the sclera or the white of the eye. |
|
| The uveal tract is a vascular layer of tissue that is, a layer rich in blood vessels lying next to the inner surface of the sclera. |
|
| During a vitrectomy, the doctor makes a tiny incision in the sclera. |
|
|
|
| Episcleritis, in contrast to scleritis, is typically a benign, self-limited inflammation of the tissues immediately covering the sclera. |
|
| Inflammation of the deeper sclera, called scleritis, is more severe and is often painful. |
|
| The liquid that slowly accumulates in the bleb is reabsorbed by the blood vessels located in the sclera and conjunctiva. |
|
| The haptic was reinserted intraocularly, and the outstaying sutures were tied with conventional knots over the sclera or under the scleral flaps. |
|
| Physical examination revealed jaundice, sclera icterus and mild abdominal tenderness over the right upper quadrant with an enlarged liver. |
|
| The plaque is sutured to the sclera and radiation is emitted to the apex of the lesion at an effective tumoricidal dose. |
|
| On occasion, scleritis can be severe enough to destroy areas of the sclera and pose a significant threat to the health and visual function of the eye. |
|
| Inflammation of the sclera, called scleritis, can cause intense, boring pain and, if severe, could be associated with life-threatening systemic disease. |
|
| The posterior part of the uvea, the choroid, is essentially a layer of blood vessels and connective tissue sandwiched between the sclera and the retina. |
|
| At its circumference the cornea joins the white of the eye, called the sclera. |
|
| The outer layer is the tough coat composed of the cornea and sclera, the innermost is the retina, a thin light-receptor layer, and the middle layer is the uvea. |
|
| Suuronen's doctoral research involved the use of tissue engineering methods to develop a model of the cornea, complete with nerves and surrounding sclera tissue containing blood vessels. |
|
| The choroid is another layer that lies between the sclera and the retina, comprised mainly of blood vessels that nourish the eye's third tunic, the retina. |
|
| In front of the iris there is a port-hole in the sclera about 11 mm across. This part of the eye is more convex, and is covered by the cornea, a perfectly clear membrane. |
|
| The successful reattachment of the retina involves sealing the retinal tear with a silicone material which is sutured to the sclera to position the eyeball inwards. |
|
| About fout to six incisions remove several layers of sclera, leaving a fine layer of tissue that lets the aqueous humor percolate through it like a coffee filter. |
|
| Choroidal thickness was defined as the distance between the retinal pigment epithelium to the inner margin of the sclera. |
|
| The corneal epithelium is keratinized and the sclera is thick enough to withstand the pressures of diving. |
|
| The device cannula was positioned through a sub-Tenon episcleral approach over the globe between the sclera and Tenon's capsule. |
|
| The tumour involved the anterior chamber, ciliary body, choroid and sclera, with extension into the episcleral and orbital soft tissues. |
|
|
|
| The sclera covers the vitreous humor, a jelly-like material that fills the eyeball and is mostly water. |
|
| Diaton tonometer takes quick and painless measurement of IOP through upper eyelid, at tarsus and sclera, without touching or influence of the cornea vs. |
|
| The disease is characterized by an abnormally elongated eye with a physical stretching of the sclera, choroid and retina, resulting in degenerative and progressive changes. |
|
| In dogs, the infection occurs in an acute or chronic form characterized by ocular nodules that are often evident on the eyelids, conjunctiva, and sclera. |
|
| Halegoua-De Marzio, the patient's physical examination showed normal mental status, icteric sclera, mild abdominal distension and lower extremity edema. |
|
| In severe cases, the Acanthamoeba can move into the sclera and also attack the optic nerve, giving rise to the severe pain associated with this infection. |
