“…23 Strabismus is associated with short term (diplopia, headache, confusion) and long term effects (abnormal or absent binocular vision, unacceptable cosmesis). 24 Frequency of strabismus in our study group is comparable to national data. Most common strabismus was eso-deviation under less than 20 years of age group (1.7%).…”

Objective: To highlight the prevalence of incidentally discovered ocular findings harvested amongst candidates of different age groups presented for pre-employment screening in a tertiary care eye hospital. Methods: This Cross sectional prospective study was conducted in Armed Forces Institute of Ophthalmology, Rawalpindi, from Jun 2018 to Dec 2019. Data was collected using non-probability consecutive sampling technique. All candidates who appeared for medical fitness examination were included. Candidates belonged to various regions of Pakistan. Complete ophthalmic checkup including visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity, anterior and posterior segment examination was performed. The data analysis was done by IBM SPSS 2.0 software. Results: One thousand and five hundred (1500) candidates underwent ophthalmic medical fitness examination during Jun 2018 to Dec 2019, out of these 86% (1290) were males and 14% (210) were females. Mean age of the candidates was 23.14 ± 5.66 years. The most common incidental ocular findings were amblyopia 24.6% (369), strabismus 10% (150), cataract 7.3% (110), macular scar 6.5% (100) and colour vision deficiencies 5.5% (82). Conclusion: The study demonstrates that out of total patients, 77% (1095) were found to be asymptomatic and 23% (405) were symptomatic. The study provides frequency for prevailing diseases and can help in improvement of eye care screening. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.3.3177 How to cite this:Khan S, Rafique A, Zafar O.

“…En este sentido, la exposición solar y a los rayos UV en el ámbito ocupacional ha generado relevancia en las últimas décadas, describiéndose cada vez más casos en la literatura [5]. Sin embargo, no es el único factor de riesgo ocupacional que podría intervenir en la etiología del Pterigión, otras sustancias químicas como el Metabisulfito de sodio también han sido relacionadas.…”

“…En Ecuador, existe un marco jurídico que promueve la intervención en prevención de riesgos laborales, enmarcado en el artículo 326, numeral 5 de la Constitución del Ecuador [6], en los convenios de la Organización Internacional del Trabajo (OIT) relacionados a la seguridad y salud, ratificados por Ecuador y otras legislaciones nacionales, que exigen que todo trabajador realice sus actividades ocupacionales en un ambiente seguro [7]. Por ende, si el Pterigión puede afectar la visión del trabajador impidiendo que cumpla adecuadamente sus funciones en su puesto de trabajo y este puede verse relacionado con el Metabisulfito de Sodio, es necesario promover medidas de educación, de control ambiental y de seguridad industrial que disminuirán los gastos asociados a patologías de este tipo [4] [5]. En la provincia ecuatoriana de Los Ríos las principales actividades económicas son la agricultura y el comercio.…”

Pterygium is an ocular pathology among workers in Ecuador's agricultural and productive areas. The present study aimed to identify the relationship between the use of agricultural chemicals, sun exposure, and other irritants and the appearance of pterygium in the personnel of the packing area of the San Luis farmof the Panigon enclosure of the province of Los Rios, Ecuador, Colombia. Between April and September 2022. An analytical, descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out. As a result, it was found that 70% of workers with pterygium are detected, although the company applies biosecurity protocols. It confirms previous studies pointing to chemical exposure and sunlight as the leading causes of pterygium. Implementing visual care practices was reaffirmed, avoiding exposure to chemical factors.

Purpose Evaluate the agreement between IOL Master 500 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Germany) and MYAH (Topcon EU, Visia Imaging, Japan) in measuring axial length, keratometry, and anterior corneal astigmatism. Setting Department of Biomedical and Dental Sciences and Morphofunctional Imaging, Ophthalmology Clinic, University of Messina, Messina, Italy. Methods In this prospective study, 40 eyes (right eye 25, left eye 25) of 40 patients were included. Axial length (AL), keratometry (K1, K2), and anterior corneal astigmatism (ACA) were measured. AL, mean K (Kavg) and magnitude of ACA were compared using Bland – Altman plot analysis, parametric and nonparametric statistical analysis. The difference vector and angle of error of the ACA measured by the two devices were evaluated by vector analysis using polar diagrams. Results Mean and standard deviation with IOL Master and with MYAH device was for AL 24.25 ± 1.22 mm and 24.25 ± 1.22 mm (p = .99), for Kavg 42.75 ± 1.53 D and 42.85 ± 1.52 D (p = .78), for Magnitude of ACA 1.00 ± 0.58 D and 0.89 ± 0.56 D (p = .38) respectively. High correlations were found for AL (R² = 0.999), Kavg (R² = 0.996), and ACA Magnitude (R² = 0.889). Bland-Altman analysis of the two devices found high agreement and absence of proportional bias (MYAH-IOL MASTER) were found between the two assessments for AL (bias = −0.0005 mm, p = .93), Kavg (bias = 0.0955 D, p = .76) and ACA (bias = 0.11 D, p = .41). Limit of agreement (upper/lower LoA, 95%CI) were respectively +0.057/−0.058 mm for AL, + 0.29/−0.09 D for Kavg and +0.49/−0.27 D for ACA. No statistical difference was found between the x-component and y-component of the ACA vector (p > .01), the difference vector (IOL MASTER-MYAH) was +0.14 D axis 159 with an absolute mean angle of error of 7.2 ± 7.5 degree. Conclusions The instruments appear to be interchangeable for measurements of AL, keratometry, and magnitude of ACA with high agreement between the two devices. Also, in the presence of low astigmatism, the two instruments give the same results in terms of ACA.
