There is a gradual loss of vision during childhood or adolescence and in a few cases, vision loss may be noticed in adulthood. Involvement of photoreceptor cells presents slow loss of central vision, distorted vision and reduced color vision. Mutations in ABCA4 gene following accumulation of lipofuscin within the retinal pigment epithelium is a causative factor of the disease. Beaten bronze reflex or Snail slime reflex from the macula is the typical clinical presentation. The signs & symptoms like Avila darshana (Blurred vision) and Vyavidha darshana (distorted vision) which are mentioned in Ayurvedic classics in the context of the disease Timira, can be correlated with the clinical manifestation of Stargardt’s disease. Currently, there is no effective treatment in contemporary science for Stargardt’s disease except for gene therapy and stem cell therapy. Hence, the present clinical study was undertaken in order to understand and manage the Stargardt’s disease, with Ayurvedic treatment modalities like Virechana (Therapeutic purgative), Tarpana (Ocular therapy used to treat posterior segment disorders) and Nasya (Errhine therapy). A 25 years old male patient diagnosed with Stargardt’s disease was advised to undergo Virechana with Trivrit lehyam (A linctus made of Operculina turpethum), Nasya with Ksheerabala taila (A medicated oil prepared from Sida cordifolia and sesame oil processed with medicinal herbs) and Tarpana with Mahatriphaladi ghrita (Medicated ghee prepared out of Emblica officinalis, Terminalia bellirica, Terminalia chebula and other medicated herbs) for a course of 26 days.

The common causes include birth trauma, Peter’s anomaly, limbal dermoid, sclerocornea, congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy (CHED), mucopolysaccharidosis and infective/inflammatory process. It is important to consider congenital error of metabolism including mucopolysaccharidosis as an etiology for corneal edema/corneal clouding and megalocornea because these cases are rare and can be easily missed out if not evaluated properly. Case report A 11 month old male child presented with complaints of reduced weight gain, failure to thrive, recurrent respiratory infections and diarrhea. On clinical examination the patient showed coarse facies, flat face, prominent bulging eyes, large tongue, enlarged gums (Figure 1). Perinatal history was normal term vaginal delivery, and he was the first child of non-consanguineous marriage. Ophthalmological examination revealed megalocornea (horizontal corneal diameter of 16 mm – Figure 1) with corneal edema/corneal clouding. Anterior chamber was deep. No cherry red spots were seen on fundoscopic examination. Intra ocular pressure was within normal limits. On Gonioscopy, angles were open. On indirect ophthalmoscopy, the optic disc was of normal size, shape & colour. The optic cup was within normal limit. The neuroretinal rim was healthy. Retinal artery:vein ratio was maintained. The macula was healthy and the foveal reflex was present. MRI Brain was done which revealed T2 hyperintense signal involving cerebral white matter on either side uniformly involving both subcortical and periventricular white matter without abnormal T1 hypointense signal suggestive of Hypomyelination MRI is (Figure 2).

Chloroquine, (N’-(7-chloroquinolin-4-yl)-N,N-diethyl-pentane-1,4-diamine) is an antimalarial drug which has been in use since the early 1950s, in the treatment of Discoid and Systemic Lupus Erythematoses, Rheumatoid Arthritis and dermal light sensitivity eruptions. Hobbs in 1959 recognised a retinopathy which was produced by the long-term administration of this drug. Since the proposal of its anti-inflammatory effect, chloroquine phosphate has been used for the treatment of dry eyes. Among the many side-effects following systemic use of chloroquine; pruritus, urticaria, alopecia, lymphedema of forearm, headache, nausea etc are noteworthy. Ophthalmological complications like bull’s eye maculopathy, keratopathy, corneal deposits have also been observed, although infrequently.

Ophthalmomyiasis is classified as ophthalmomyiasis externa if the larvae are present on the conjunctiva, ophthalmomyiasis interna when there is intraocular penetration of larvae and orbital/ocular ophthalmomyiasis if larvae penetrate the orbit. This condition is rare in India, with no case reports from Mumbai. We report a rare case of Ophthalmomyiasis externa in a 25 year old male who presented with sudden onset foreign body sensation in his right eye, followed by intense watering, irritation and redness since 2 hours. Visual acuity was 6/6 and N6 in both eyes. The right eye showed superficial congestion for chemosis; and no evidence of a foreign body. On detailed examination, three motile larvae were found and removed from the conjunctiva, which were later identified as larvae of Oestrus ovis (Sheep nasal botfly). The patient was started on antihistaminics and antibiotics and showed improvement within 24 hours. Our case highlights two things – firstly, the importance of early detection of this condition by creating awareness amongst ophthalmologists as being one of the causes of conjunctivitis during spring/summer seasons especially in developing countries like India; and secondly, plain irrigation of the conjunctiva is unsuccessful in washing out of the larvae.","PeriodicalId":23047,"journal":{"name":"The Official Scientific Journal of Delhi Ophthalmological Society","volume":"108 1","pages":"51-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74375338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
