  3. Lids Lids

  4. Lids Normal

  5. Lids Ectropion • Eyelid turning outward • Document with location (I.e. “ectropion LLL”)

  6. Lids Entropion • Eyelid turning inward • Document with location (I.e. “entropion LLL”)

  7. Lids Dermatochalasis (D’chalasis) • Redundancy of skin in eyelids • Atrophy of elastic tissue

  8. Lids Upper Lid Folds • Increased amount of folds • Document as: “high UL folds”

  9. Lids Hooding • When upper lid comes over lid margin • Document as: “Hooding”

  10. Lids Ptosis • Drooping of the upper eyelids • Document with location (I.e. “Ptosis RUL”)

  11. Lids Papilloma • Growth on eyelid • Document with location (I.e. “papilloma RUL”)

  12. Lids Trichiasis • Inward growth of eyelashes • Document with location (I.e. “trichiasis RLL”)

  13. Lids Chalazion • Inflamed lump in meibomian gland

  14. Lids Blepharitis • Inflammation of eyelid margins • Redness, swelling, itching, crusting

  15. Lids Ecchymosis • Bruising • Document with location (I.e. “ecchymosis RUL”)

  16. Adnexa

  17. Adnexa Normal

  18. Adnexa Decreased Tear Lake • Tear lake not smooth • Also can have increased break up time • Document as: “decreased tear lake” • Misc – TBUT = 10 sec

  19. Conjunctiva

  20. Conjunctiva Quiet

  21. Conjunctiva Injection • Tissue redness and swelling

  22. Conjunctiva Sub-Conjunctival Hemorrhage (SCH) • Blood below conjunctiva and above sclera • Document as: “SCH” with location (i.e. “SCH OD temp, inf, nas”)

  23. Conjunctiva Hyperemia • Congestion of blood vessels • Causes redness

  24. Conjunctiva Bleb • S/P trabeculectomy for glaucoma • Document if flat or formed

  25. Cornea

  26. Cornea Normal

  27. Cornea Arcus • White deposit of cholesterol

  28. Cornea Edema • Swelling of tissue from fluid accumulation

  29. Cornea Superficial Punctate Keratitis (SPK) • Small superficial corneal lesions • Often due to dryness • Usually seen with staining

  30. Cornea Anterior Stromal Scarring • Scarring on the Stroma (middle layer of the cornea)

  31. Cornea Amiodarone Whorls • Deposits from long-term use of Amiodarone

  32. Cornea Abrasion • Scraped area of corneal surface • Accompanied by loss of epithelium • Usually seen with staining

  33. Cornea Astigmatic & Radial Keratomtery (AK / RK) cuts • S/P AK or RK • Document with location (I.e. “AK cuts OU”)

  34. Cornea Keratic Precipitates (KP) • Inflammatory cells and white blood cells that enter aqueous and adhere to corneal endothelium

  35. Cornea Guttata • Small whitish hyaline deposits on inner surface of cornea

  36. Cornea Lasik Flaps • S/P Lasik • Location = direction of flap opening • Document with location (I.e. “Lasik flap inf. – healed”)

  37. Cornea Neovascularization • New blood vessel growth • Document location (I.e. “OD inf.”)

  38. Cornea Pinguecula • Benign yellowish-brown elevation of sub-conjuntival tissue on either side of cornea

  39. Cornea Pterygium • Wedge-shaped growth in bulbar conjunctiva • May advance over the cornea

  40. Cornea PK • S/P corneal transplant • Note sutures: • None • 360* • Running 360*

  41. Cornea Suture • occ. used S/P PEIOL • Document with location (I.e. “suture temp.”)

  42. Cornea Descemets Folds • Folds in the Descemet’s membrane

  43. Cornea Ulcer • Area of epithelial loss • Associated with inflammatory cells in cornea & AC

  44. Cornea Band Keratopathy • Horizontal band of calcium deposits • In superficial layer of cornea

  45. Cornea Haab’s Striae • Breaks or tears in Descemet’s membrane • Usually from forceps use during delivery

  46. Anterior Chamber
