Purpose: The authors analyzed the epidemiological and clinical aspects of diabetic retinopathy at the Center for the Application of the Specialized Studies Diploma in Ophthalmology, Gamal Abdel Nasser University (CHU/ Donka) Conakry. Diabetic retinopathy (eye damage: eye and retina) is a serious complication of diabetes that affects 50% of type 2 diabetic patients. The eyes are particularly sensitive to damage to a small vessel. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the retinal localization of diabetic micro angiopathy resulting in impaired blood flow in the affected territories, the consequences of which will determine the clinical manifestations of the disease. DR is the leading cause of vision loss in adults of working age. Patients and Methods: This is a longitudinal prospective study carried out at CADES/O concerning 198 diabetic patients. The selection criteria were that the media be transparent and the fundus accessible over a period of six months from February to July 2018. Results: A total of 73 patients (37%) presented with diabetic retinopathy with an average age of 49.5 +/− 9 years. The sex ratio (M/F) was 0.6 with a female predominance of 59%. Liberal profession patients were the most numerous 47.5%. Type 2 diabetes was the most common (85.86%). Diabetes fundus assessment was the most common reason for consultation (52%). Arterial hypertension was the most incriminated risk factor (45.45%) followed by the poor balance of diabetes (40.90%), and the age of diabetes (28.28%). 9.5% had diabetic retinopathy complicated by rubella iris, neovascular glaucoma and retinal detachment. Conclusion: Diabetic retinopathy is a common condition

Introduction: Hypertensive retinopathy is the set of retinal and papillary manifestations secondary to acute or chronic acute or chronic high blood pressure. Its frequency increases with age in women, its treatment requires the balance of blood pressure figures. Purpose: To study in women the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of Hypertensive retinopathy at the application center of the Diploma of Specialized Studies in Ophthalmology (CADES/O). Patients and Methods: Prospective study conducted on 92 women who met the inclusion criteria over a period of six (6) months, from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022 in whom the diagnosis of Hypertensive Retinopathy was retained according to the Kirkendall classification. Results: We collected 92 patients with an average age of 57.88 years. The hypertensive Retinopathy was present at 61.75%. The age group of 60 -69 years was the most represented at 40.22%. The socio-professional stratum most affected was housewives. The duration of the evolution of high blood pressure was from 2 -5 years representing 57.61% of our study cases; the most common grade of high blood pressure was Grade II at 60.87%. Treatment of hypertension was irregularly followed in 73.91%. Stage II according to Kirkendall's classification was 58.70% common; the recurrent sign was retinal hemorrhage at 30.43%. Blood pressure balance was the treatment recommended to our patients at 80.48%. Conclusion: Hypertensive retinopathy is common in women and its management remains the balance of blood pressure figures with periodic and multidisciplinary monitoring.

Introduction: Corneal trauma can be defined as any impact on the cornea following direct or indirect trauma by a traumatic agent. Due to its anatomical position, the cornea is the superficial membrane most exposed to ocular trauma. It is a frequent pathology in ophthalmology, especially in young active subjects. It is an important cause of poor vision or loss of the eyeball with a significant socio-economic impact. Material and Method: We conducted a prospective cross-sectional study of descriptive type with a duration of 5 months from November 01, 2020 to March 31, 2021 in order to study the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic profile of corneal trauma. Results:During the study period, 179 patients consulted for corneal trauma, i.e. 64.9% of ocular trauma. The age group 20 to 29 years old was the most affected with a frequency of 29.1%. The average age of our patients was 26.6 years old, with extremes ranging from 1 to 75 years old. The majority of patients were male with a frequency of 68.2% and a sex ratio of 2.1. Decreased visual acuity was the most frequent reason for consultation in our patients with 93.2%. Perforation was the most frequent type of trauma with 80.3%. All of our patients were treated with medication (100%), 65.3% with physical treatment and 41.8% with surgery. Conclusion: Corneal trauma is a real public health problem. They are especially frequent in young active subjects. Prevention remains the most effective means of treatment.
