HPI: BL is a 57-year-old right-handed female with an eight- month history of visual difficulties in her left eye. She underwent left-sided cataract surgery with lens replacement, but continued to have deterioration of her visual acuity, with complaints of blurriness in the left eye. She also complains of occasional diplopia. A recent ophthalmologic examination revealed exophthalmos.
Question: What is exophthalmos?
Definition
Answer: The eyeball bulges out.
Term
What does the low acuity in the left eye tell us about the optic nerve?
Definition
The pupils constrict to light, so the oculomotor nerves are intact bilaterally. (Besides controlling some movements of the eyes, the oculomotor nerve is responsible for pupillary constriction.)
Term
Diplopia on left lateral gaze suggests?. Together with the exophthalmos?
Definition
an issue with the abducens nerve.. Together with the exophthalmos, the symptoms suggest a mass posterior to the orbit.
