Complications of Bacterial Keratitis Impacted by Social Determinants of Health: A Case Report.

Introduction: The emergency department commonly evaluates eye pain and vision loss. Typically, these conditions can be managed outpatient; however, delays can lead to advanced pathology.

Case Report: A 48-year-old homeless male presented with left-eye vision loss and pain.

Occupational decompression sickness: A case report.

Decompression sickness describes the clinical pathology that ensues when rapid decompression from a highly pressurized environment causes the formation of venous and extravascular inert gas bubbles. Symptoms vary widely, commonly including arthralgias, myalgias, paresthesias, and numbness. Severe and potentially life-threatening pathology, such as neurologic impairment, cardiopulmonary instability, and gastrointestinal hemorrhage, can occur as well.
