This study measured the concentration of sodium, potassium and chloride in tear and serum of apparently healthy hospital subjects.

Abstract: A 53-year-old woman presented with sudden, painless loss of vision in the left eye and vision of counting fingers. She was a known diabetic and hypertensive on medical management. Left eye retinal examination revealed retinal whitening at the posterior pole along with cherry red spot at the macula and presence of emboli called Hollenhorst plaques in the superotemporal and inferotemporal branches of the retinal arteries (arrows) (Figure 1). Immediate ocular massage was done to dislodge the emboli but visual improvement was minimal. Carotid doppler and a full cardiac work-up was advised which was found to be normal.

Abstract: Ocular tissues removed at surgery are sent for histo-pathological diagnosis to differentiate grossly normal tissues from the grievously abnormal tissues. Treatment options of ocular lesions are histologically guided. This study was therefore aimed to review the histo-pathological profile of oculoplastic lesions which can give useful information on the prevalence of these lesions thus help in designing treatment protocol for them.
