    (Marmara Üniversitesi, 2022) Bozali, Erman; Yeter, Duygu Yalınbaş; Apa, Anıl Selim; Özeç, Ayşe Vural; Erdoğan, Haydar
    Objective: Evaluation of the epidemiological and clinical features of pediatric open globe injury. Methods: Medical records of 51 patients under the age of 18 who presented to the emergency department with open globe injury (OGI) between 2009 and 2021 were evaluated retrospectively. Patient demographics, Birmingham Eye Trauma Terminology (BETT) category, pediatric ocular trauma score (POTS), visual acuity (VA), site of injury, and seasonal distribution were evaluated. Results: Of all patients included, 40 (78.4%) were male, 11 (21.6%) were female, and the mean age was 9.6±5.2 years. Zone I injury was detected in 31 (60.8%) patients. The most common cause of injury was sharp objects such as metal or wood splinters. Of all injuries, 29 (56.9%) occurred outdoors. Ocular trauma occurred more frequently in boys, especially in the summer months. Initial VA was less than 0,1 in 21 (41.2%) of the patients, between 0.1-0.5 in 9 (17.6%) and 0.6 and above in 5 (9.8%) patients. At the final visit, VA was less than 0.1 in 9 (17.6%) patients, 0.1-0.5 in 10 (19.6%) patients, and 0.6 and above in 18 (35.3%) patients. Final VA was related to the Zone and was lower as the Zone increased (p:0.011). VA and POTS scores were positively correlated at the final visit (p=0.001). Conclusion: It is substantial for emergency physicians to have a comprehensive understanding of pediatric globe injuries so that children with suspected ocular trauma should be evaluated by an ophthalmologist to prevent medicolegal problems.

    Prevalence of refraction errors and color blindness in heavy vehicle drivers
    (2011) Erdo?an, Haydar; Özdemir, Levent; Arslan, Seher; Çetin, Ilhan; Özeç, Ayşe Vural; Çetinkaya, Selma; Sümer, Haldun
    AIM: To investigate the frequency of eye disorders in heavy vehicle drivers. METHODS: A cross-sectional type study was conducted between November 2004 and September 2006 in 200 drivers and 200 non-driver persons. A complete ophthalmologic examination was performed, including visual acuity and dilated examination of the posterior segment. We used the auto refractometer for determining refractive errors. RESULTS: According to eye examination results, the prevalence of the refractive errors was 21.5% and 31.3% in study and control groups respectively (P < 0.05). The most common type of refraction errors in the study group was myopic astigmatism (8.3%) while in the control group simple myopia (12.8%). Prevalence of dyschromatopsia in the drivers, control group and total group was 2.2%, 2.8% and 2.6% respectively. CONCLUSION: A considerably high number of drivers are in lack of optimal visual acuity. Refraction errors in drivers may impair the traffic security.

    RELAPSING POLYCHONDRITIS AND STROKE
    (2024) Kaya, Hilal; Sarıkaya, Ekrem; Yıldız, Özlem Kayım; Doğancı, Alper; Özeç, Ayşe Vural; Yıldız, Bülent
    Relapsing polychondritis is a multisystemic autoimmune disease with a predilection for cartilaginous structures, causing recurrent episodes of chondritis. The most common presentations are auricular and nasal chondritis and arthritis; however, the disease may affect almost every part of body including heart, vessels, tracheobronchial tree and nervous system. Stroke has rarely been reported in patients with relapsing polychondritis. We present a case with stroke, probably due to vasculitis and other typical manifestations of relapsing polychondritis including auricular perichondritis, sensorineural hearing loss and ocular inflammation.
