Diesel fuel toxicity can lead to rapid necrosis and inflammation, complicating the prognosis even with prompt medical intervention.Methods: A 39-year-old male presented with a right orbital injury from a diesel fuel explosion. Initial symptoms included mild periorbital swelling and a laceration on the upper eyelid. Despite early management with antibiotics and surgical repair, the patient's condition rapidly deteriorated, developing severe periorbital swelling, pain, and decreased vision. Multiple surgical debridements were performed to remove necrotic tissue and residual diesel fuel. Aggressive treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics and corticosteroids was administered.Results: Despite the aggressive treatment, the patient's vision deteriorated to no light perception, indicative of optic neuropathy. Over the following days, the patient showed significant improvement and was eventually discharged with ongoing antibiotic therapy. At a 6-month follow-up, the patient had good cosmetic outcomes despite mild limitations in eye movement.Conclusion: High-pressure orbital injuries, especially those involving toxic substances like diesel fuel, require early and aggressive management. A multidisciplinary approach, including prompt surgical intervention, broad-spectrum antibiotics, and corticosteroids, is essential to improve outcomes and preserve vital structures. Long-term follow-up is crucial to address functional and cosmetic sequelae. Further research is needed to develop evidence-based protocols, especially for toxic orbital cellulitis.","PeriodicalId":19406,"journal":{"name":"Ocular Immunology and Inflammation","volume":" ","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143692775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this review, we aim to identify the most common ocular manifestations observed in selected dermatological diseases, specifically psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, rosacea, and pemphigus. We highlight key ophthalmological conditions linked to these diseases to raise awareness among ophthalmologists who may encounter patients with these dermatological conditions in their clinical practice. Analyzing the original studies, the most common ocular manifestations include various types of inflammation, such as conjunctivitis and blepharitis. Additionally, more severe conditions, such as keratitis, uveitis, and meibomian gland dysfunction, are frequently observed. Ocular symptoms in pemphigus vulgaris and rosacea can precede dermatological signs. Dry eye disease is commonly seen across various dermatological conditions. Treatments like calcineurin inhibitors (used for atopic dermatitis and psoriasis) have shown efficacy for both dermatological and ocular symptoms. In atopic dermatitis, the use of dupilumab has been linked to increased rates of conjunctivitis, necessitating collaboration between dermatologists and ophthalmologists to distinguish drug side effects from disease manifestations. Psoriasis treatments, including phototherapy and biologics like secukinumab and ustekinumab, require careful monitoring for potential ocular effects, as their safety profiles are still being evaluated. For ocular rosacea, cyclosporine has demonstrated superior efficacy over doxycycline in managing symptoms such as burning and corneal involvement. This review underscores the importance of recognizing the interplay between dermatological and ocular health. Early diagnosis, interdisciplinary collaboration, and tailored treatments are essential for managing these complex conditions effectively.","PeriodicalId":19406,"journal":{"name":"Ocular Immunology and Inflammation","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143605648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were categorized using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA), with \"Retinal Vasculitis\" as the primary outcome and \"Uveitis\" and \"Vitritis\" as secondary outcomes. Disproportionality analysis was performed using ranibizumab as the reference drug. Logistic regression identified associations between demographic factors and ADRs.

However, the mechanisms of action of primary therapeutic drugs-antihistamines, mast cell stabilizers, and their combination-remain unclear. This review introduces the pathogenesis of allergic conjunctivitis, including seasonal, perennial, and vernal keratoconjunctivitis. This study found that dual-acting drugs offer advantages over single-agent treatments.

He had been using topical prednisolone acetate four times daily in his right eye. Given a prior history of anterior uveitis, preoperative MMF was initiated 3 weeks prior to repeat DSAEK. On the day of surgery, the patient was noted to have a new large arborizing non-suppurative stromal infiltrate despite minimal visual changes or symptoms, consistent with ICK. Corneal cultures grew Streptococcus sanguinis which responded to topical antibiotics with discontinuation of MMF. Therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) was required for corneal scarring with no further recurrence of disease.
