Podcasts about ocular

Is your child/client constantly skipping words while reading, losing their place on the page, or avoiding reading altogether? These might not be “reading problems”—they could be visual problems.In this episode, we break down how ocular motor skills—specifically saccades, pursuits, and convergence—are essential for reading success. You'll learn how these visual skills impact everything from decoding to attention span, and why children with ADHD, sensory processing disorder, or retained primitive reflexes are at higher risk for visual-motor challenges.LINKSRelationship Between Ocular Motility and Motor Skillshttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11698614/Primitive Reflex Integration and Reading in the Classroomhttps://jneuroscience.com/2023/02/26/primitive-reflex-integration-and-reading-achievement-in-the-classroom/Statistics of Infants' Natural Visual Experience https://jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx?articleid=2792416We'd love to answer your questions on the podcast!

E também recebemos o Dr Lucas Zago que é especialista em retina pela EPM e Coordenador Médico do Programa Olhar para Todos.No Episódio de hoje conhecemos os bastidores do Programa Olhar Para Todos: Um programa do Governo de Goiás que oferece atendimento oftalmológico gratuito a estudantes da rede pública estadual, incluindo exames, diagnóstico, entrega de óculos e encaminhamento para tratamentos, quando necessário. Já beneficiou mais de 20 mil alunos, visando melhorar o desempenho escolar e reduzir a evasão. A iniciativa, realizada em parceria com a UFG, SEDUC e OVG, pretende atender todos os mais de 495 mil estudantes até 2026. Material Suplementar:Livro: Saúde Ocular no SUS Vídeo sobre o projetoSite do Projeto Olhar Para TodosDetalhes sobre o Projeto:O Projeto tem objetivo de promover saúde ocular gratuita aos estudantes, por meio de avaliação, diagnóstico, acompanhamento especializado e entrega gratuita de óculos.O Governo de Goiás, por meio da Secretaria de Estado da Saúde (SES), em parceria com o Centro de Referência em Oftalmologia da Universidade Federal de Goiás (Cerof/UFG), Secretaria de Estado da Educação (SEDUC) e Organização das Voluntárias de Goiás (OVG), já atendeu 20.062 estudantes da rede pública estadual nos últimos 7 meses. O número corresponde a 64,1% dos alunos das escolas visitadas e que tiveram autorização dos pais/responsáveis.O Olhar Para Todos, lançado em novembro de 2024, é considerado o maior programa público de saúde oftalmológica do Centro-Oeste. Por meio de um consultório móvel, a ação disponibiliza oftalmopediatras e equipamentos de ponta nas escolas para realização de exames e, se necessário, oferta de óculos e/ou encaminhamento, via regulação estadual, para acompanhamento ambulatorial ou cirúrgico pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS).O programa já esteve em 59 escolas da rede estadual de educação e encaminhou 1.201 estudantes para acompanhamento no Cerof/GO que oferece atendimento especializado em problemas oculares, como glaucoma, estrabismo, córnea, retina e outros. Dentre os estudantes atendidos 6.428 precisavam da prescrição de óculos, os quais foram ofertados pela OVG.O objetivo é estender a ação aos mais de 495 mil estudantes até 2026. A presidente de honra da OVG, primeira-dama Gracinha Caiado, destacou o alcance do programa Olhar Para Todos. “Não fazemos apenas o exame. Quem precisa de cirurgia também é atendido. “Fazemos isso para mostrar que não existe governo se não for para cuidar das pessoas”, afirmou.Segundo dados do Governo de Goiás, programas de exames e doação de óculos podem reduzir em 12% a repetência e a evasão escolar. O Secretário de Estado da Saúde, Rasível Santos, enfatizou a importância do projeto. “O Olhar para Todos assegura que os estudantes tenham acesso a consultas oftalmológicas e tratamentos necessários, garantindo melhores condições para alcançar bons resultados acadêmicos”, acrescentou.De acordo com o presidente do conselho administrativo do Cerof/UFG, Marcos Ávila, a iniciativa leva até a comunidade escolar consultórios modernos e completos, dispostos em ônibus, para oferecer atendimento de qualidade aos jovens pacientes. “Esse projeto é inovador em termos de diminuir a repetência, a evasão e tantos problemas que quem não enxerga enfrenta em uma sala de aula”, destacou.

In this episode, Tatiana Havryliuk, MD, and Randy Glick, BSB/PM, MCP,  explore how point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) can play a critical role in evaluating patients with headaches, particularly when increased intracranial pressure is suspected. Through a real-world case of a 42-year-old woman with persistent headaches, we highlight how ocular POCUS—specifically measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter—can aid in the timely diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension. They also review additional ocular conditions detectable by POCUS, current evidence supporting its use, and how even novice providers can learn to apply this powerful, non-invasive tool. Tune in to learn how POCUS can enhance diagnostic accuracy, reduce unnecessary imaging, and improve outcomes in primary care.

CardioNerds Critical Care Cardiology Council members Dr. Gurleen Kaur and Dr. Katie Vanchiere meet with Dr. Yash Patel, Dr. Akanksha, and Dr. Mohammed El Nayir from Trinity Health Ann Arbor. They discuss a case of pulmonary air embolism, RV failure, and cardiac arrest secondary to an ocular venous air embolism. Expert insights provided by Dr. Tanmay Swadia. Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy intern, Grace Qiu. A 36-year-old man with a history of multiple ocular surgeries, including a complex retinal detachment repair, suffered a post-vitrectomy collapse at home. He was found hypoxic, tachycardic, and hypotensive, later diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism from ocular venous air embolism leading to severe right heart failure. Despite a mild embolic burden, the cardiovascular response was profound, requiring advanced hemodynamic support, including an Impella RP device (Abiomed, Inc.). Multidisciplinary management, including fluid optimization, vasopressors and mechanical support to facilitate recovery. This case underscores the need for early recognition and individualized intervention in cases of ocular venous air embolism. US Cardiology Review is now the official journal of CardioNerds!

Pearls- Clear Vision, Clouded Heart: Ocular Venous Air Embolism with Pulmonary Air Embolism, RV Failure, and Cardiac Arrest Hypoxia, hypotension and tachycardia in a patient following ocular instrumentation are classic findings suggestive of pulmonary embolism from possible air embolism. The diagnosis of RV failure is based on clinical presentation, echocardiographic findings (such as McConnell's sign), and invasive hemodynamic assessment via right heart catheterization. Mechanical circulatory support can be considered as a temporary measure for patients with refractory RV failure. Central Figure: Approach to Pulmonary Embolism with Acute RV Failure Notes - Clear Vision, Clouded Heart: Ocular Venous Air Embolism with Pulmonary Air Embolism, RV Failure, and Cardiac Arrest 1. What is an Ocular Venous Air Embolism (VAE), and how can it be managed in critically ill patients? An Ocular Venous Air Embolism is defined as the entry of air into the systemic venous circulation through the ocular venous circulation, often during vitrectomy procedures. Early diagnosis is key to preventing cardiovascular collapse in cases of Ocular Venous Air Embolism (VAE).  The goal is to stop further air entry. This can be done by covering the surgical site with saline-soaked dressings and checking for air entry points. Adjusting the operating table can help, especially with a reverse Trendelenburg position for lower-body procedures. The moment VAE is suspected, discontinue nitrous oxide and switch to 100% oxygen. This helps with oxygenation, speeds up nitrogen elimination, and shrinks air bubbles. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can reduce bubble size and improve oxygenation, especially in cases of cerebral air embolism, when administered within 6 hours of the incident. Though delayed hyperbaric oxygen therapy can still offer benefits, the evidence is mixed. VAE increases right heart strain, so inotropic agents like dobutamine can help boost cardiac output, while norepinephrine supports ventricular function and systemic vascular resistance, but this may also worsen pulmonary resistance.  Aspiration of air via multi-orifice or Swan-Ganz catheters has limited success, with success rates ranging from 6% to 16%. In contrast, the Bunegin-Albin catheter has shown more promise, with a 30-60% success rate. Catheterization for acute VAE-induced hemodynamic compromise is controversial, and there's insufficient evidence to support its ...

In this engaging episode of Vet Tales, Dr. Natalie Keith and Dr. Jessica Eastep explore the fascinating world of veterinary ocular health.

Send us a textWhen your pet needs ear surgery, their eyes might be the last thing on your mind. Yet Dr. Bianca Hartrum's pioneering research reveals a critical connection between ear procedures and vision health that veterinary professionals and pet owners can no longer afford to ignore.Dr. Hartrum's study examines ocular examinations before and after total ear canal ablation and bulla osteotomy (TECALBO) procedures in cats and dogs. The findings are striking: a staggering 90.9% of cats developed Horner's syndrome following surgery—far higher than previously documented rates. Additionally, 20% of patients already had eye disease related to their ear condition before surgery, while another 30% had unrelated ocular issues discovered during comprehensive exams.The research originated from a troubling case early in Dr. Hartrum's residency—a dog with a severe melting corneal ulcer and facial nerve paralysis following ear surgery. This prompted her deep dive into existing literature, where she found only passing mentions of neuro-ophthalmic complications without detailed analysis. Her study fills this critical knowledge gap with ophthalmologic expertise and data-driven recommendations that are already transforming clinical practice.The take-home message is clear and actionable: thorough eye examinations should be standard before and after ear surgeries. Dr. Hartrum recommends Schirmer tear tests, fluorescein staining, and post-operative topical lubricants as minimum protective measures. These simple steps can prevent potentially devastating vision complications. These findings can lead to new collaborative care protocols incorporating pre- and post-operative eye exams into surgical costs.Has your veterinarian discussed potential eye complications before your pet's ear surgery? Share your experience and help spread awareness about this important connection between ear and eye health in our beloved companions.JAVMA article: https://doi.org/10.2460/javma.24.08.0533INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ® OR AJVR ® ?

Ransomware has become more difficult for organizations to defend against, but easier for adversaries to deploy. The rise of ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) — a model in which ransomware operators write the malware and affiliates pay to launch it — has lowered the barrier to entry so threat actors of all skill levels can participate and profit.   OCULAR SPIDER is one such operator. This adversary, newly named by CrowdStrike, is associated with the development of ransomware variants including Cyclops, Knight, and RansomHub. They targeted hundreds of named victims between February 2024 and March 2025, according to CrowdStrike intelligence, and they focus on industries such as professional services, technology, healthcare, and manufacturing in regions including the United States, Canada, Brazil, and some European countries.   But OCULAR SPIDER is one of many operators in the ransomware space. Adam and Cristian take listeners back to the early days of ransomware and track its evolution, variants, and key players from the mid-2010s through the launch of RansomHub in 2024. They explain how RaaS works, why it appeals to adversaries and complicates attribution, and how defenders can prepare to face today's ransomware threats.   Come for an update on Adam's adventures in bread-making; stay for a deep-dive into the RaaS evolution and the threat actors driving it.

La mayoría de la población padece problemas de refracción en la vista, que son aquellos relacionados con la manera en que enfoca el ojo, como miopía, hipermetropía o astigmatismo, entre otros. El sentido de la vista es el que permite al hombre conocer el medio que lo rodea, relacionarse con sus semejantes, y el hombre debe contar con los elementos adecuados para captar e interpretar señales provenientes de aquellos. Las imágenes visuales le proporcionan a través del ojo, información sobre el color, la forma, la distancia, posición y movimiento de los objetos. El deterioro de la vista se convierte a menudo en un serio problema para las personas de edad avanzada. Si su visión está disminuyendo, considere el uso suplementario cuya función en la bioquímica y fotoquímica contribuye a una mejor visión. Ocular está científicamente diseñado para este propósito.

Contributor: Jorge Chalit-Hernandez, OMS3 Educational Pearls: Serotonin syndrome occurs most commonly due to the combination of monoamine oxidase inhibition with concomitant serotonergic medications like SSRIs Examples of unexpected monoamine oxidase inhibitors Linezolid - a last-line antibiotic reserved for patients with true anaphylaxis to penicillins and cephalosporins Methylene blue - not mentioned in the podcast due to its uncommon usage for methemoglobinemia Other medications that can interact with SSRIs to cause serotonin syndrome Dextromethorphan - primarily an anti-tussive at sigma opioid receptors that also has serotonin reuptake inhibition Clinical presentation of serotonin syndrome Altered mental status Autonomic dysregulation leading to hypertension (most common), hypotension, and tachycardia Hyperthermia Neuromuscular hyperactivity - tremors, myoclonus, and hyperreflexia Hunter Criteria (high sensitivity and specificity for serotonin syndrome): Spontaneous clonus Inducible clonus + agitation or diaphoresis Ocular clonus + agitation or diaphoresis Tremor + hyperreflexia Hypertonia, temperature > 38º C, and ocular or inducible clonus Management of serotonin syndrome Primarily supportive - benzodiazepines can help treat hypertension, agitation, and hyperthermia. Patients often require repeated and higher dosing of benzodiazepines Avoid antipyretics to treat hyperthermia since the elevated temperature is due to sustained muscle contraction and not central temperature dysregulation In refractory patients, cyproheptadine (a 5HT2 antagonist) may be used as a second-line treatment Patients with temperatures > 41.1º C or 106º F require medically induced paralysis and intubation to control their temperature References Boyer EW, Shannon M.

Victims groomed and raped by gangs have told the BBC's Senior UK Correspondent Sima Kotecha that they are adamant the crime is still happening to girls across the country. Yesterday, a Tory amendment to the government's Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill, which wanted a national inquiry into grooming gangs, was voted down. Krupa Padhy talks to Sima and Simon Morton, a former senior investigating officer for Thames Valley Police, about what is known about how these gangs operate.Playing Nice, a new ITV drama, tells the story of two couples who discover their toddlers were accidentally swapped at birth. Actor Niamh Algar, who plays one of the mothers, and Grace Ofori-Attah, who wrote the script for the small screen, join Krupa to talk about the moral and ethical issues within the series, and why they hope it will spark a conversation.Two women who've developed a firm friendship through a shared experience of having a rare eye cancer join Krupa to talk about the incredible bond they have forged. Ocular melanoma affects only five in a million people but Tessa Wingfield-Parry and Joanna Denman, who happen to live just around the corner from each other, both were diagnosed. They talk about how they met, the impact the disease has had on their lives, and how they've discovered they've got a lot more in common than just their cancer.Whilst doing her Masters at the University of Cambridge, Times writer Tyler Bennett earnt extra money on the side writing erotica.

Welcome to another exciting episode of the Kyle and JJ Show! Today, we're diving into the cosmic adventure of Guardians of the Galaxy, gushing over those adorable creatures like Groot and Rocket, and of course, the ever-handsome Star-Lord himself, Chris Pratt! Both Kyle and JJ went in with relatively low expectations, but they've found themselves completely captivated by this universe.But before we get lost in space, there's a serious topic we need to address: eye syphilis. Don't be ashamed and risk losing an eye. Globally, there are about 12 million new cases of syphilis each year, with approximately 55,400 of them in the United States. Ocular syphilis occurs in an estimated 1% to 5% of neurosyphilis cases in the U.S. While rare, its complications are serious, potentially leading to vision loss and even blindness. The good news is that early and complete antibiotic treatment can cure ocular syphilis. So, stay informed and stay safe, just like our favorite Guardians protecting the galaxy.

Join us for a comprehensive overview of ocular trauma with vitreoretinal surgeon Dr. Ray Iezzi. We discuss how to best examine eyes after trauma, especially in the setting of vitreous hemorrhage, surgical repair options, and outcomes.
