RESUMO

Introducción: La salud visual es de vital importancia para el individuo, habiendo una mayor incidencia de oftalmopatías sobre los 50 años. Pese a su impacto sanitario, Chile carece de estudios epidemiológicos suficientes. La gran variabilidad de sus presentaciones hace importante conocer cuales ameritan el tratamiento intrahospitalario. Objetivo: Describir las principales causas de egresos hospitalarios por enfermedades del ojo y sus anexos en el Hospital Regional Guillermo Grant Benavente entre los años 2018 y 2021. Materiales y métodos: Estudio ecológico que analizó 1764 egresos hospitalarios por enfermedades del ojo y sus anexos del Hospital Guillermo Grant Benavente entre los años 2018 y 2021. Los datos corresponden al Departamento de Estadísticas e Información en Salud (DEIS). Resultados: Las patologías más prevalentes fueron: Trastornos De La Coroides Y De La Retina (33%) (TCR) Trastornos Del Cristalino (14,7%), Trastornos De La Esclerótica, Córnea, Iris Y Cuerpo Ciliar (10,2). Trastornos Del Párpado, Aparato Lagrimal Y Órbita (12,7%) (TPAO) Esta última con diferencias estadísticamente significativas para el sexo. Conclusión: Se ve una disminución de la atención hospitalaria desde el año 2020 debido a la pandemia del virus SARS-COV-2. No hay diferencias por sexo, excepto para la TPAO, similar a lo visto en la literatura. La acumulación de oftalmopatías en el rango de población adulta y adulta mayor, refleja un envejecimiento poblacional. Se reconoce además a los TCR como la patología con mayor incidencia. El estudio contribuye a la epidemiologia local, aportando a la falta de conocimientos actualizados, describiendo los diagnósticos más frecuentes de la especialidad.


Introduction: Eye care is vital for the individual, with a higher incidence of ophthalmopathy over 50 years. Despite its health impact, Chile lacks sufficient epidemiological studies. The great variability of their presentations makes it important to know which ones merit in-hospital treatment. Objective: To describe the main causes of hospital discharges for eye diseases and its adnexa at the Guillermo Grant Benavente Regional Hospital between 2018 and 2021. Material and methods: An ecological descriptive study that analyzed 1,764 hospital discharges for eye diseases and its adnexa from the Hospital Guillermo Grant Benavente between the years 2018 and 2021. The data corresponds to the Department of Statistics and Health Information (DEIS). Results: The most prevalent pathologies were: Disorders of the Choroid and Retina (33%) (TCR), Disorders of the Lens (14.7%), Disorders of the Sclera, Cornea, Iris, and Ciliary Body (10.2). Disorders of the Eyelid, Lacrimal Apparatus and Orbit (12.7%) (TPAO) The latter with statistically significant differences for sex. Conclusion: A decrease in hospital care is seen since 2020 due to the SARS-COV-2 virus pandemic. There are no differences by sex, except for PPAO, similar to what has been seen in the literature. The accumulation of ophthalmopathy in the range of the adult population and older adults, reflects an aging population. TCR is also recognized as the pathology with the highest incidence. The study contributes to the local epidemiology and the lack of updated knowledge, describing the most frequent diagnoses of the specialty.

RESUMO

Propósito: describir los hallazgos y la medición del grosor coroideo subfoveal utilizando tomografía óptica coherente de imagen de profundidad mejorada (EDI OCT), en paciente hispanos con sospecha clínica de atrofia coroidea relacionada con la edad (ARCA). Métodos: estudio descriptivo y trasversal en 17 pacientes con impresión clínica de ARCA, basados en: disminución de la agudeza visual de reciente aparición, alteraciones pigmentarias en la macula, apariencia de fondo de ojo atigrado y atrofia peripapilar a pesar de no ser miope. A todos se les realizó examen oftalmológico completo, que incluía: Agudeza visual mejor corregida (BCVA), biomicroscopía con lámpara de hendidura y evaluación del fondo de ojo bajo dilatación. A estos pacientes se les realizó fotografía digital del fondo de ojo y tomografía óptica coherente de imagen de profundidad mejorada (EDI OCT). Se realizó un total de 5 mediciones del grosor coroideo en el área macular en cada ojo. Resultados: se evaluaron 26 ojos de 14 pacientes, con una edad media de 70,86 años (DS± 8,46 años). El 57.14% fueron mujeres y el 42.86% hombres. El promedio de la agudeza visual fue 20/47 (0,38 LogMAR), el 80.2% presentaron manifestación binocular. La media del grosor coroideo fue 119,53 µm (DS±49,68µm). No hubo correlación estadísticamente signifi cativa entre la BCVA y grosor coroideo (P=0.407). Conclusión: la atrofia coroidea relacionada con la edad es una condición que puede presentarse en pacientes hispanos de edad avanzada. Afecta igualmente a hombres y mujeres, es usualmente bilateral y el grado de adelgazamiento de la coroides no predice la agudeza visual final.


Purpose: to describe the findings and measure the subfoveal choroidal thickness with Enhanced Depth Imaging (EDI) OCT in hispanics subjects with clinical impression of age-related choroidal atrophy (ARCA). Methods: a descriptive and cross-sectional study of 17 subjects with clinical impression of ARCA: based on recently decreased visual acuity, pigmentary alterations in the macula, a tessellated fundoscopic appearance, and peripapillary atrophy despite being not myopic. All patients had a comprehensive ocular examination, including BCVA, biomicroscopic and fundus examination. They underwent color fundus photography and EDI OCT. A total of 5 measurements were took of each eye. Results: twenty six eyes were included from 14 patients, with a mean age 70,86 years (SD ± 8,46 years). The 57,14% were female and 42.86% male. The mean visual acuity was 20/47 (0,38 LogMAR Equivalent), 80.2% had bilateral disease. The mean choroidal thickness was 119,53 µm (SD ± 49,68 µm). There was no statistically significant correlation between BCVA and choroidal thickness (p =0,407). Conclusions: the ARCA is a condition that can be present in elderly Hispanics subjects. Affects equally male and female, it is usually bilateral and the degree of choroidal thinning does not predict the final visual acuity.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Epidemiologic evaluation and investigating the causes of visual impairment in any society is a matter of concern and has a direct effect on the country's health care planning. In this study we describe causes of low vision and blindness in Iranian patients referred to rehabilitation clinics for taking vision aids. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, visual acuity was classified based on best-corrected visual acuity in the better eye according to the World Health Organization definition (blindness, visual acuity [VA] < 20 / 400; severe visual impairment, VA < 20 / 200-20 / 400; mild to moderate visual impairment, VA < 20 / 60-20 / 200). The causes of blindness and low vision were determined using the 10th version of International Classification of Diseases based on the main cause in both eyes. To describe data, we used mean +/- SD and frequency. RESULTS: The study included 432 patients, 65% male, with a mean age of 43.6 +/- 25.5 years (range, 3 to 92 years). Mild to moderate visual impairment, severe visual impairment and blindness were present in 122 (28.8%), 196 (46.4%) and 105 (24.8%) of the patients, respectively. The main causes of visual impairment were retinal and choroidal diseases (74.5%), optic nerve and optic tract diseases (9.8%), vitreous and globe disorders (5.3%), congenital cataract (3.1%), and glaucoma (2.6%). The distribution pattern of the causes was similar in all age subgroups. CONCLUSIONS: Diseases of the retina and choroid are the main cause of visual impairment among patients referred to an academic visual rehabilitation clinic in Iran.
