    Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that cause damage to the optic nerve and can lead to vision loss and blindness. It is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, affecting an estimated 79.6 million people by 2020. There are two main types: open-angle glaucoma, where fluid passes too slowly through the eye's drainage system, and acute or angle-closure glaucoma, which develops suddenly when the fluid flow becomes blocked. Risk factors include age over 60, family history, and conditions like diabetes. Treatment options include eye drop medications to lower pressure, laser procedures, and surgery. Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is an inflammation of the conjunctiva that lines the

    • Glaucoma refers to a group of optic neuropathies that cause
    progressive damage to retinal ganglion cells. This damage leads to
    cupping of the optic nerve and ultimate visual loss.

    • Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide;


    however, the pathophysiology of glaucoma is poorly understood and
    the exact factors leading to its progression are unclear. An estimated
    79.6 million persons are expected to have glaucoma worldwide by
    2020.
    Prevalens
    • Leading cause of blindness
    • Glaucoma tends to run in families
    • It is five time more common in African-American than in Caucasians
    Types of Glaucoma
    Acute or angle closure glaucoma (close-angle)
    • It develops suddenly, pressure rise quickly because normal fluid flow
    within the eye becomes blocked.
    • A structure called the angle (where iris and cornea meet) closes

    • Open-angle glaucoma
    The fluid passes too slowly through the meshwork drain
    Types of Glaucoma
    Symptoms
    Open Angle Glaucoma Angle Closure Claucoma

    Eyes pain and redness Vision is lost painlessly and gradually

    Blurred vision Peripheral vision lost first

    Halos around lights at night Tunnel vision (see only in front of us)

    A Hazziness in the cornea

    Nausea an vomiting

    Extreme weakness
    Risk Factors
    • Anyone can develop glaucoma
    • Higher risk: African-Americans >40y.o, Everyone >60 y.o, people with
    family history of glaucoma
    • People with diabetes or hypertension
    Another etiology for Open Angle
    Glaucoma
    • Eye defects that develop before birth
    • Eye injuries
    • Eye tumors
    • Medical problems: diabetes
    • Medication: corticosteroids
    Diagnosis

    Pachymetry

    Visual
    Tonometry
    acuitytest

    Visual field
    test

    Dilated eye
    exam
    Treatments
    • Medicines
    Eyedrops lower eye pressure
    These need to be taken regularly
    Side effects: headaches, stinging, burning, and redness in the eyes
    • Laser trabeculoplasty
    It helps fluid drain out of the eye.
    Side effects: inflammation.
    • Conventional surgery
    It makes the new opening for the fluid to leave the eye.
    Side effects: cataract, cornea inflammation, infection inside the eye.
    Nursing Roles In Glaucoma Patient
    Psychological impact of the diagnosis
    • Appropriate counseling
    • Psychological support for hope in the future
    Damage to the visual field, side-effect of treatment, cost of treatment
    • Education programme
    • Anxiety related gradual visual disturbances
    • Assess how glaucoma affect quality of life
    • Prepare the patient how to cope out door activities
    • Collaboration with other proffessional: doctor, social worker…
    Conjunctivitis
    • Pinkeye
    • Inflammation of the conjunctiva

    • Highly contagious, rarely serious – Not damage the vision
    Classic Symptoms
    • Pink or red color in the white of the eye(s)

    Causes
    • Viruses
    • Bacteria
    • Irritans (shampoos, dirt, smoke, pool chlorine)
    • A reaction to eyedrops
    • An allergic reaction
    • Fungi, amoebas, parasite
    Notes
    • Steroid drops or combination drops containing steroids should not be
    used routinely.
    • Steroids can increase the latency of the adeno-viruses, prolonging the
    course of viral conjunctivitis
    • Steroid worsen condition in : herpes, bacteria, or fungus  leading to
    corneal melt and blindness
