Diagnosis of Syphilitic Bilateral Papillitis Mimicking Papilloedema

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Syphilis produces myriad nonspecific signs and symptoms. For example, optic disk swelling might be seen in patients with syphilis as a result of cranial hypertension (papilloedema), inflammatory optic neuritis with papillitis, or optic perineuritis.

To study the role of retinal nerve fiber layer versus optic nerve head parameter in the diagnosis of glaucoma using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography

open access: yesNational Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2023
Background: Glaucoma is a chronic progressive optic neuropathy with characteristic optic disk and visual field (VF) changes, high intraocular pressure (IOP) being important risk. Detection and monitoring of optic disk and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL)

Actuation of Micro-Optomechanical Systems Via Cavity-Enhanced Optical Dipole Forces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We demonstrate a new type of optomechanical system employing a movable, micron-scale waveguide evanescently-coupled to a high-Q optical microresonator. Micron-scale displacements of the waveguide are observed for milliwatt(mW)-level optical input powers.

Malignant Hypertension: Ocular Manifestations

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2006
Malignant hypertension may be the first manifestation of systemic hypertension. We report a clinical case of a Caucasian 41-year-old man with no previous history of blood hypertension seen at casualty because of blurred vision.

Optic Nerve Sonography in the Diagnostic Evaluation of Pseudopapilledema and Raised Intracranial Pressure: A Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesNeurology Research International, 2015
Introduction. Differentiating pseudopapilledema from papilledema which is optic disk edema and a result of increased ICP (intracranial pressure) is important and can be done with noninvasive methods like orbital ultrasound examination. Method. This was a

Imaging of the Lamina Cribrosa using Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The lamina cribrosa (LC) is the presumed site of axonal injury in glaucoma. Its deformation has been suggested to contribute to optic neuropathy by impeding axoplasmic flow within the optic nerve fibers, leading to apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells. To

A New Family of Light Beams and Mirror Shapes for Future LIGO Interferometers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Advanced LIGO's present baseline design uses arm cavities with Gaussian light beams supported by spherical mirrors. Because Gaussian beams have large intensity gradients in regions of high intensity, they average poorly over fluctuating bumps and valleys
