Usually, patients present complaining of a confined burning, tender swelling on one eyelid. Either the upper or lower lid may be involved. In some cases, the complaint may start as generalized edema and erythema of the lid that later becomes localized. Patients will frequently have a history of similar prior lesions of the eyelid. With external hordeolum, pain, edema, and swelling are localized to a discrete area of the eyelid that is tender to palpation. The styegenerally appears as a pustule with mild erythema of the lid margin. Pustular exudate may be present. The characterful small town of Tréguier in Côtes-d'Armor, evangelised in the 6th century, is one of the seven stops on the Breton pilgrimage, the Tro Breiz. The leaves have a high reputation as a 'cure-all' in Africa, where they are used in the treatment of a wide range of conditions. They are most commonly taken in decoctions or are mixed with foods[332 ]. The bitter tasting leaves are antitussive, appetizer, blood purifier, diuretic, febrifuge, galactagogue, laxative, pectoral and tonic[332 ]. They are used to treat a wide range of conditions such as: pulmonary and respiratory complaints, including coughs and fevers; digestive tract problems including colic, dysentery and diarrhoea; infectious diseases including syphilis, beriberi and leprosy; and various other conditions such as impotence, rheumatism and oedema[332 ]. The powdered leaves are mixed with food as a general tonic and blood restorative after any exhausting condition, and especially given to women after childbirth to promote the flow of milk[332 ]. The leaves are commonly made into an infusion, combined with those of Combretum micranthum, for treating fever, chest and rheumatic conditions, and as a nasal douche for cold in the head[332'. Combined with tamarind pulp, the leaves are held to be a good laxative and appetizer[332 ]. The plant has a special reputation as a preventive of leprosy and many people drink a cold decoction of the leaves every morning and evening; in particular it is given to the newborn child, and to the child of a leper parent, or when there is the least suspicion of hereditary taint or early symptoms[332 ]. The dried leaves are smoked in a pipe and the smoke is blown through the nose as a remedy for colds[332 ]. They are mixed with tobacco for smoking as a treatment for coughs and respiratory trouble[332 ]. The powdered leaves are added to a snuff taken for headache and sinusitis[332 ]. The leaves are applied externally to bring healing to the body - they are considered antiseptic and vulnerary. They are applied to wounds, sores in the mouth, syphilitic chancres and phagadenic ulcers[332 ]. The leaves are applied to skin infections and in poultices on inflammatory swellings and for guinea-worm; they have been applied to tumours to maturate them and as a treatment for skin-diseases[332 ]. A leaf-decoction is used as a body-wash and for bathing new-born babies[332 ]. The fruit and leaves are common ingredients in more or less ceremonial prescriptions for strengthening and preventing disease in young children[332 ]. The twigs are chewed for symptomatic relief of scorpion stings[332 ]. The powdered and boiled roots are considered a remedy for diarrhoea and dysentery[332 ]. The fruits, baked and reduced to a powder with salt added to mask the bitter taste, are considered a sovereign cure for hiccups[332 ]. Leafy stems have been found to contain traces of alkaloids and tannins[332 ]. Ash of the roots and leaves appear to be particularly rich in magnesium, calcium, strontium, titanium, iron and aluminium[332 ]. Pharmacologically the plant has positive action on coughs, is hypotensive, antidiarrhetic and anti-inflammatory[332 ].Optic disc swelling is seen on fundoscopy in one-third of patients during the active phase. In the absence of observable papillitis, signs and symptoms of ON are usually sufficient to establish the diagnosis of retrobulbar neuritis. A complete dilated eye examination is recommended including formal automated perimetry for all patients with suspected ON [1] [3] [7]. The Optic Neuritis Treatment Trial (ONTT) was a randomized, controlled clinical trial that defined the treatment for ON [7]. In the ONTT, testing for etiologies other than MS was not helpful in typical ON. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) however was helpful in defining the risk for MS. Patients suspected of having an infectious, inflammatory, or autoimmune etiology for ON however based upon atypical features in the history or examination may benefit from further testing. Slit lamp biomicroscopy for anterior segment inflammation (uveitis) and posterior segment evaluation for vitreous cells and posterior uveitis is recommended [3]. The degree of vision impairment may range from near-normal acuity to no light perception [16]. Nearly any visual field defect may be seen on automated visual field testing but central scotomas are most common. Color perception is significantly impaired (red hues are notably desaturated) and contrast sensitivity is diminished. Patients may experience recurring photopsias. Vision loss may be exacerbated after exercise or elevation of body temperature (Uhthoff phenomenon). Most subjects in each cohort recovered visual function in the first 1 to 3 months. Visual improvement occurred more rapidly in subjects treated with intravenous methylprednisolone, but there was no difference in the cohorts receiving oralcorticosteroids and placebo. Visual acuity did not fully returnin many subjects with initial visual acuities of 20/200or worse.Visual outcomes at six months were similar in all cohorts butoptic neuritis recurred twice as often in subjects who received prednisone.

Three different glands within the eyelid are implicated in the pathogenesis of hordeolum when they become infected by S. aureus. Infection of Zeis and Moll glands (ciliary glands) causes pain and swelling at the base of the eyelash with localized abscess formation. Termed external hordeolum, these produce the typical appearance of a stye with a localized pustule of the eyelid margin. The meibomian glands are modified sebaceous glands that are found in the tarsal plate of the eyelids. Theyproduce an oily layer on the surface of the eye that helps to maintain proper lubrication of the eye. When a meibomian gland becomes acutely infected, it results in an internal hordeolum. Due to its deeper position within the eyelid, internal hordeolahave a less defined appearance than external hordeolum. They came up with a set of nine equations with nine unknowns to be able to determine the six parameters required for a satellite orbit. And to solve these equations they needed all their mathematical vector analysis skills and also the computing power of UNIVAC ( one of the first digital computers), which the head of the APL laboratory gave them for their promising research.Insall J, Goldberg V, Salvati E (1972) Recurrent dislocation and the high-riding patella.

Mem Acad Chir 85:645–654 Optic neuritis usually presents with the acute onset of monocular eye pain and vision loss in a young adult. Pain is usually associated with eye movements and often precedes loss of vision. Patients often report having had similar events in the same or fellow eye.

For atypical ON, corticosteroids are frequently given in the acute phase until the testing can be completed. Patients who do not respond to initial IV steroid therapy (e.g., NMO or MOG) may benefit from early plasma exchange (PLEX) or IVIG. At one year there were no differences in visual function (acuity, visual field, color discrimination, and contrast sensitivity) betweensubjects who received placebo and corticosteroids (VA of 20/40 or better: placebo (95%), intravenous methylprednisolone (94%), and oral prednisone (91%) [21].Visual recovery [22], [23], [24], [25], visual field results [26], [27], and neurologic consequences of ON [28], [29], [30], [31], [10], [32]have been reported at three years 7864737 [33], [34]and 15 years [35], [36].
