The swelling may distort a person s central visual perception vision , as the macula is near the center of the retina at the back of the eyeball. This area holds tightly packed cone cell cones that provide sharp, clear central vision to enable a person to see detail, form, and color that is directly in the direction of gaze. Macular edema sometimes appear for a few days or weeks after cataract surgery , but most such cases can be successfully treated with NSAID or cortisone eye drops .

Presentation Reinke s edema causes the vocal folds to wiktionary bilateral bilaterally swell giving them an uneven, sac like appearance. Individuals with Reinke s Edema typically have low pitched, husky voices. Causes Common causes of Reinke s edema include Tobacco smoking smoking , Gastroesophageal reflux disease gastroesophageal reflux , hormonal changes such as hypothyroidism and chronic voice abuse. Histology Histopathology biopsy of the vocal cord may be used to help in diagnosis in some cases. Histology shows oedema in the stroma. Treatment The first course of treatment is to remove the source of the irritant e.g. smoking cessation, vocal rest, etc. . This can be effective if done soon after development of the edema. Surgery is also an option and can result in some restoration of the voice but is ineffective in complete restoration of the voice to its original state. Decortication of the vocal cords, i.e. removal of a strip of epithelium, is done first on one side and 3 4 weeks later on the other side. Eponym It is named for Friedrich B.

essay like date February 2012 Gerard Edema 1652 1700? , was a Dutch landscape painter who settled in England. Biography Edema is stated to have been a native of Friesland . He was a pupil of Allart van Everdingen , from whom he learnt to paint landscapes of a wild and savage nature, with a predilection for rocks and waterfalls. He came to England about 1670, in his eighteenth year, and shortly afterwards made an expedition to Norway to collect subjects for his pictures. These travels he extended to Surinam in Dutch Guiana, the West Indies, the English colonies in America, and Newfoundland. He returned to London with a great number of paintings representing the novel and unknown scenery which he had visited, and their strange and awe inspiring character earned him the name of the Salvator Rosa of the North. He had no difficulty in disposing of any number of them to the merchants whose business was connected with those countries, and his landscapes were eagerly sought after by the nobility. Edema, having no talent for figures and buildings, was usually assisted in this line by Jan Wyck. Sir Richard Edgcumbe, being anxious to have a series of views of Mount Edgcumbe painted for his house there, employed Edema, Wyck, and Vandevelde to execute them in concert. They remained some time at Mount Edgcumbe, and produced several views which still exist. Unfortunately for Edema his prosperity led him into luxurious habits and to an inordinate love of the bottle, which caused his death at Richmond about 1700. Two landscapes by him are at Hampton Court. He was a clever painter, but owed his ...

Under examination the retina appears opaque and white in colour in the periphery but the blood vessels are normally seen. Usually there is no leakage of fluid and therefore it is not considered a true edema. The choroidal fluorescence in fluorescent angiography is absent. Visual acuity ranges from 20 20 to 20 400. The prognosis is excellent except in case of complications of choroidal rupture, hemorrhage or pigment epithelial damage. The outcome can be worsened in the case of retinal detachment, atrophy or hyperplasia. Visual field defects can occur. In late cases cystoid macular edema sometimes develops which can further lead to macular destruction. Commotio retinae is usually self limiting and there is no treatment as such. It usually resolves without any complications and sequelae. References Reflist Category Disorders of choroid and retina disease stub ... more details

Persistent edema of rosacea also known as Chronic upper facial erythematous edema, Morbihan s disease, or Rosaceous lymphedema is a hard, nonpitting edema found on the areas involved, those mainly being the forehard, glabella, upper eyelids, nose, and or cheeks. ref name Fitz2 Freedberg, et al. 2003 . Fitzpatrick s Dermatology in General Medicine . 6th ed. . Page 689. McGraw Hill. ISBN 0071380760. ref Persistent edema of rosacea is an uncommon cutaneous condition characterized by a hard, nonpitting edema restricted to the forehead, glabella, upper eyelids, nose, and cheeks. This condition is also known as chronic upper facial erythematous edema, Morbihan s disease, morbus Morbihan, and rosaceous lymphedema. Despite the name, it is unclear whether this condition is a distinct disease or a rare complication of rosacea. Generally, there are few symptomatic complaints aside from redness and facial contour changes. The edema typically worsens slowly over months to years and is often on a background of chronic inflammation. There are no specific laboratory findings associated with this condition, and the histology tends to be similar to that seen in rosacea. The differential diagnosis includes acne vulgaris, streptococcal cellulitis, and Melkersson Rosenthal syndrome, as these conditions can also rarely manifest with a similar edema, as well as other forms of rosacea, lupus erythematosus, and sarcoidosis. Most cases of this condition tend to be recalcitrant to treatment, with topical and oral antibiotic regiments commonly used for rosacea generally being ineffective. For the severe forms of this disease, oral isotretinoin therapy has been used, and the condition responds well to doses of 0.5 to 1 mg kg day. However, unlike in the treatment of acne vulgaris, lasting responses to isotretinoin generally do not occur, and long term maintenance therapy with oral tetracyclines is usually ...
