Introduction: Glaucoma is a disturbance of part or all of the visual field caused by damage to the optic nerve and increased intraocular pressure, and obstruction of the outflow of aqueous humor, which causes optic neuropathy, loss of visual field, and in the final stages, can lead to complete blindness. This study aimed to provide an overview of primary angle-closure glaucoma patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia. Methods: This research was a descriptive observational study with secondary data, where there were 37 research subjects with 61 eyes. This study presents clinical, sociodemographic, and management data of angle-closure glaucoma patients. Data analysis was carried out univariately with SPSS. Results: The majority of angle-closure glaucoma patients are aged 40-64 years and are female. Family history with glaucoma disorders has not provided optimal data because the majority of these data are not found. The majority of glaucoma patients have intraocular pressure ≤ 21 mmHg. The majority of research subjects do not have refractive disorders. The majority of patients receive medical therapy in the form of 2-3 types of eye drops. The majority of patients are diagnosed with PACG. Conclusion: The majority of angle-closure glaucoma patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia, have normal intraocular pressure without refractive errors and receive combination therapy of 2-3 eye drops.

Introduction. Many people in Indonesia are unfamiliar with glaucoma, even though it causes blindness. This fact is because the damage process of glaucoma occurs slowly. If glaucoma is not treated immediately, it can cause irreversible vision loss and blindness. This study aims to present the characteristics of primary open-angle glaucoma patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang, Indonesia. Methods. This study is a descriptive observational study. A total of 33 subjects participated in this study. Data analysis was carried out with SPSS for Windows. Results. Most participants were men aged 40-69 years old with a history of high school education. Most patients had clinical symptoms with a mild cup-to-disc ratio with early degrees of visual field defects and intraocular pressure less than 21 mmHg with therapy. Most patients had no history of hypertension, no history of diabetes mellitus and no family history of similar disorders. Most patients have refractive disorders and received medical therapy. Conclusion. The characteristics of primary open-angle glaucoma patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital have a clinical form of a mild cup-to-disc ratio, refractive disorders and receive medical therapy to control increased intraocular pressure.

Endophthalmitis is a severe form of intraocular inflammation which is caused by bacteria or fungi. It is a medical emergency with an imminent threat to vision and permanent structural and functional complications. The condition affects the anterior and posterior segments of the eye. It may be either exogenous – following penetrating trauma or intraocular surgery, or endogenous, in which the pathogens enter the eye hematogenous. The diagnosis is based on the clinical picture and on specialized testing – aqueous and/or vitreous cultures, with or without additional PCR for panbacterial and panfungal primers. If endogenous endophthalmitis is suspected, blood and urine cultures may also be performed. The most common bacterial pathogens in acute postoperative endophthalmitis belong to the Staphylococcus and Streptococcus groups. Endogenous endophthalmitis is most frequently fungal and caused by Candida. The incidence of post-traumatic endophthalmitis ranges from 0.9 to 17% and of postoperative - from 0.016 to 5.7%, depending on the surgical procedure and the geographic location. Endogenous endophthalmitis has been observed in up to 8% of all cases. Therapy is urgent and may include intravitreal medications or pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), according to the Endophthalmitis Vitrectomy Study criteria. The combination of COVID-19-associated severe pneumonia, systemic corticosteroid therapy, and diabetes appear to be risk factors for endogenous endophthalmitis. The ethology has mostly been linked to fungal infections, especially Candida, as in the pre-COVID-19 era. There has been a tendency to perform PPV with intravitreal medications as the primary procedure, but the results have been mixed.

Introduction: The eyelids or lids have the function of protecting the eyeball and secrete glandular secretions that form a tear film in front of the cornea. This study aimed to assess the characteristics of patients with entropion. Methods: This research is a retrospective study approach. Data was obtained from Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, from January 2019 to December 2021. Medical record data included in this study were patients diagnosed with ptosis, entropion, and ectropion patients. The exclusion criteria were patients with missing medical records and any other palpebra abnormalities. The necessary variables were analyzed descriptively by calculating the prevalence and looking at the patient characteristics of entropion. Results: Most age in patients with entropion are those with age >60 years, which is as much as 66.67% of patients. The most affected eyes were the left eye and both eyes (44.44%) and the superior eyelid (66.67%). In this study, the most common type of entropion was the cicatricial type which was found in 5 patients (55.56%). No spastic and congenital entropion was found in this study. Conclusion: The most common age are those with age >60 years. The cicatricial type was the most common type in patients with entropion at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital.

Introduction: Cataract is the main cause of visual impairment and vision loss in the world, where 33% of the world's population has decreased vision due to cataracts. This study aims to explore the role of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in inhibiting the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1ß, thereby triggering tissue repair in cataract cases in vivo study. Methods: This study is an experimental study with a post-test-only approach with a control group design. A total of 30 rats (Rattus norvegicus) Wistar strain was included in this study (male, 150-200 g, 8-10 weeks). The rats were divided into 3 groups, P1 (the group that was not induced by cataract and not treated with platelet-rich plasma), P2 (the group that was induced by cataract and given 10 uL of intraocular saline injection), and P3 (the group that was induced by cataract and given an intraocular injection of platelet-rich plasma). Plasma 10 uL). Results: The results showed that the P3 group that received platelet-rich plasma treatment showed a significant decrease in IL-1B levels when compared to the P2 group with cataract induced but without PRP administration (p<0.05). Conclusion: Activated platelet-rich plasma has potential as a new therapeutic modality in cataract conditions through inhibition of chronic inflammatory response in vivo studies.

Acute syphilitic posterior placoid chorioretinitis (ASPPC) is defined by the presence of a placoid, yellowish, often solitary lesion, typically involving the areas of the temporal vascular arcades, the juxtapapillary retina, and/or the macular region, with the lesions being present at the level of the outer retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). The visual acuity may range from no light perception to 20/20. There may be associated anterior chamber inflammation and vitritis. Therapy should include antibiotics for neurosyphilis. The role of corticosteroids is controversial. HIV coinfection should always be tested for. With appropriate therapy, the prognosis seems to be good.

Introduction: The human Herpesviridae have been described as a leading cause of infectious uveitis. The most common manifestations are keratouveitis and iridocyclitis. The diagnosis is usually made on clinical grounds. The present therapy is based upon the inhibition of viral replication and the use of anti-inflammatory medications. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted on the records of 206 patients with uveitis from the Clinic of Ophthalmology at University Hospital Alexandrovska, Sofia, Bulgaria. The study period was from January 2012 until August 2019. The diagnosis was based on the clinical exam and, when necessary, on specialized testing – PCR on aqueous humor or vitreous material. We used descriptive statistical methods. Results: Out of 206 patients with intraocular inflammation, 46 (22.3%) were diagnosed with herpetic uveitis. Of them, 35 (76.1%) had anterior uveitis, 7 patients (15.2%) had panuveitis, and 4 patients (8.7%) had posterior uveitis. The mean age was 45.3 years. The leading complications were ocular hypertension, corneal leucoma, retinal detachment, and cataract. Antiviral therapy with acyclovir or valaciclovir, alone or with corticosteroids, was used in all groups. Conclusion: The herpesviruses are important causative agents of infectious uveitis. In our study, non-granulomatous, hypertensive anterior uveitis was the most common clinical entity. There were also a few patients with posterior and panuveitis. VZV was the most common etiologic agent. The panuveitis cohort had the worse prognosis for visual acuity, mostly as a result of retinal detachment. The posterior uveitis presented most frequently as focal retinochoroiditis with a good prognosis.

Loneliness has been termed a social epidemic, especially by people with disabilities; one of them is visual impairment. To our knowledge, no study has obtained specific estimates of depression for young and middle-aged adults with visual impairment (VI). These difficulties may be compounded by discrimination. Observational data revealed that those with sight loss were twice as likely as those with another impairment to have experienced discrimination. There is evidence that individuals with visual impairment have poorer mental health than their impairment-free counterparts. In health care settings, an association between visual impairment and depression has been consistently reported. Greater prevalence of depressive symptoms in those with visual impairment has also been reported. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of and factors associated with loneliness and depression in adults with visual impairment and examine its association with life satisfaction.

Strabismus is a condition due to misalignment of the visual axis of the eyes, also known as a squint. Squint eyes can be clearly seen by others, and give symptoms such as double vision or blurred vision. In a systematic review study revealed that 1 in every 50 people suffer from strabismus, and this disorder greatly affects their quality of life. Psychological impacts on people with strabismus can be caused by environmental factors, such as the non-acceptance of strabismus sufferers in the social environment. If strabismus is not treated in a timely manner in children, besides cosmetic consequences, it can have a dramatic impact on learning abilities, impairing their physiological and psychological performance, ultimately affecting their development and maturity. In particular, a positive effect of strabismus surgery has been demonstrated post strabismus surgery.

Stereoscopic is the ability to perceive visual objects in the depth dimension (in the third dimension). Having a stereoscopic vision is a goal to be achieved. Brown Syndrome is a rare form of strabismus in which an ocular motility disorder is characterized by restriction of the elevation of the adducted eye, whereas Duane Syndrome is a spectrum of eye motility disorders characterized by anomalous contractions of the medial and lateral rectus muscles in actual or attempted adduction of one or both eyes. Involved. Diagnosis and therapy are performed depending on the underlying condition of the disorder.
