AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
This paper highlights the case of a 46-year-old female patient who seeks ophthalmic medical advice for her complaint about double vision on right gaze. Patient's medical history reveals several symptoms like headaches, progressive hearing loss on right side and dysphonia for which all investigations proved irrelevant. Thourough clinical examination, lab exams and imaging techniques revealed the cause for this symptoms i.e. glomic tumour with middle ear extention. We find this case to be exceptional as ocular symptoms led to the diagnose of a non-ocular serious, possible life threatening condition, bearing in mind that previously occured non-ocular symptoms couldn't elucidate the cause.

Introduction: Ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy (UVF dermoscopy) is a novel diagnostic technique for identifying and diagnosing numerous skin tumors, inflammatory dermatoses, and infectious diseases. The ultraviolet (UV) band has a wavelength ranging from 10 to 400 nm. When intense UV radiation with shorter wavelengths strikes a target chromophore, visible light (VL) with a longer wavelength and lower energy is produced in the skin.

Because glomus bodies play an important role in thermoregulation in the digits of the hand and foot, glomus tumors predominantly arise in these locations. Only six incidents of glomangiomas have arisen in the forearm since 1991.
