The most common form of the disease is infantile or nephropathic cystinosis. Crystals can accumulate in the eye as early as 1 year of age. Early recognition and prompt investigations prevent further accumulation of cystine and resultant end-organ injury. The disease is usually confirmed through biochemical and genetic testing, which can be time consuming. Looking for cystine corneal deposits remains an important diagnostic criterion and is the least invasive test to perform. It is recommended that ophthalmic manifestations of cystinosis be confirmed by an ophthalmologist. We describe the case of a 3-year-old girl who presented with worsening emesis, pyrexia, and lethargy, and was diagnosed with infantile cystinosis. This case is used to present a technique that can facilitate the preliminary search for corneal cystine crystals by using equipment as readily available as two smartphones. The technique may be easily used in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, and primary care centers where there is delayed or difficult access to ophthalmologists.</p>","PeriodicalId":38112,"journal":{"name":"Digital journal of ophthalmology : DJO","volume":"25 1","pages":"12-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6488267/pdf/djo-18-098.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37231428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Programs to decrease burnout and foster resilience are needed to prevent loss of doctors in the workforce and maintain quality care. To ameliorate burnout at our eye center, we developed a resilience program and used a survey to identify additional groups with higher burnout for future interventions.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The eye center-wide resilience program consisted of the baseline burnout survey, short email wellness tips, a grand rounds presentation, short wellness presentations at faculty meetings, and a small group discussion series with clinical faculty. The anonymous burnout survey was performed prospectively online at the beginning of this program. The survey participants consisted of respondents at the Duke Eye Center, including all doctors, scientists, clinical and research staff, trainees, and administrative and educational staff, in June and July of 2017. The short, anonymous electronic survey consisted of 10 demographic questions, 2 validated burnout questions, and 1 validated work-life balance question.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A total of 593 individuals were invited to participate, of whom 252 completed the survey. Overall, 37% of the respondents reported being emotionally exhausted, and 17% had experienced depersonalization.

Burnout was higher in respondents who participated in clinical care (<i>P</i> = 0.001), particularly among ophthalmic technicians (<i>P</i> = 0.044).

The patient was referred for evaluation of progressive vision loss and new-onset band keratopathy in both eyes following denosumab therapy. She had no prior ocular history. On examination, she had calcific deposits in a horizontal band in the interpalpebral superficial cornea. Laboratory workup was negative. Denosumab was discontinued, and she was treated with keratectomy with ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic acid. Denosumab influences calcium metabolism and consequently reduces bone turnover and increases bone density. It is commonly used for treatment of osteoporosis at high-risk for fracture. Very few cases of ocular adverse drug reactions have been reported. However, because of temporal association and biological plausibility, we believe our patient developed progressive band keratopathy after administration of denosumab.","PeriodicalId":38112,"journal":{"name":"Digital journal of ophthalmology : DJO","volume":"28 1","pages":"30-32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84932459","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}
