Article Synopsis
- Gonococcal dacryoadenitis is a rare condition that can be difficult to diagnose, particularly when there's little clinical suspicion for it.
- Early diagnosis is crucial because the infection can spread, potentially leading to serious complications like corneal perforation.
- A case study highlights the importance of urgent evaluation and treatment for all cases of purulent dacryoadenitis and suggests considering gonococcal dacryoadenitis in sexually active patients with unexplained symptoms.
Childhood glaucoma poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to ophthalmologists. Difficulty in examination and limitations on ability to perform structural and functional testing of optic nerve make diagnosis and verification of glaucoma control difficult in children. It is well known that an excessive loss of hyperopia is a useful sign in alerting the examining ophthalmologist to the possible diagnosis of glaucoma.

Patients And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records (from 1995 to 2013) of 44 glaucoma subjects with unilateral DH and 50 normal controls. In the DH group, 33 had bilateral fundus photos for planimetric analysis (Cyoptique GL), 15 had spectral domain-optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), 15 had VF indices (Humphrey Visual Field Analyser), and 39 had ≥ 5 perimetry outputs for progression analysis (Progressor).
