Crystals in the cornea (the clear covering of the eye) Yellow, shiny deposits on the retina; Progressive atrophy of the retina, choriocapillaries and choroid (the back layers of the eye). This tends to lead to progressive night blindness and visual field constriction.
Corneal opacity, "clouding" in the eyes; Pallor mortis, paleness which happens in the first 15–120 minutes after death; Livor mortis, or dependent lividity, a settling of the blood in the lower (dependent) portion of the body; Algor mortis, the reduction in body temperature following death. This is generally a steady decline until matching ...
Recurrent corneal erosions may occur. The hallmark of Schnyder corneal dystrophy is the accumulation of crystals within the corneal stroma which cause corneal clouding typically in a ring-shaped fashion. [citation needed] Posterior corneal dystrophies – Fuchs corneal dystrophy presents during the fifth or sixth decade of life. The ...
The World Health Organization (WHO) publishes a classification of known diseases and injuries, the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, or ICD-10. This list uses that classification.
The Chandler variant of ICE is characterized by pathology on the inner surface of the cornea leading to abnormal endothelial pump function. [2] [5] Other features include possible mild iris changes, corneal edema, and normal to slight elevations in intraocular pressure. [1] [5] Cogan-Reese variant is characterized by multiple pigmented iris ...
Ocular neuropathic pain, also called corneal neuralgia, is a spectrum of disorders of ocular pain which are caused by damage or disease affecting the nerves. Ocular neuropathic pain is frequently associated with damaged or dysfunctional corneal nerves, [ 1 ] but the condition can also be caused by peripheral or centralized sensitization. [ 2 ]
Livor mortis (from Latin līvor 'bluish color, bruise' and mortis 'of death'), postmortem lividity (from Latin post mortem 'after death' and lividitas 'black and blueness'), hypostasis (from Greek ὑπό (hypo) 'under, beneath' and στάσις (stasis) 'a standing') [1] [2] or suggillation, is the second stage of death and one of the signs of ...
Macular corneal dystrophy, also known as Fehr corneal dystrophy, is a rare pathological condition affecting the stroma of cornea first described by Arthur Groenouw in 1890. [1] Signs are usually noticed in the first decade of life and progress afterwards, with opacities developing in the cornea and attacks of pain.
