Clinical InformationClinical

  • Ciliary Body

    a ring of tissue extending from the scleral spur to the ora serrata of the retina. it consists of the uveal portion and the epithelial portion. the ciliary muscle is in the uveal portion and the ciliary processes are in the epithelial portion.

  • Spasm

    an involuntary contraction of a muscle or group of muscles. spasms may involve skeletal muscle or smooth muscle.

  • Uveal Melanoma

    a rare, malignant melanoma arising from the melanocytes of the uvea.

  • Schlemm's Canal

    a circular vascular-like structure in the anterior chamber of the eye bounded anterolaterally by the internal scleral sulcus and posteriorly by the trabecular meshwork. it is a part of a pathway where the aqueous humor from the anterior chamber of the eye passes through the trabecular meshwork, drains into the lumen of schlemm’s canal, and subsequently returns to blood circulation into the veins of the sclera.

  • Sclera

    the white, opaque, fibrous, outer tunic of the eyeball, covering it entirely excepting the segment covered anteriorly by the cornea. it is essentially avascular but contains apertures for vessels, lymphatics, and nerves. it receives the tendons of insertion of the extraocular muscles and at the corneoscleral junction contains the canal of schlemm. (from cline et al., dictionary of visual science, 4th ed)

  • Scleral Buckling

    an operation for retinal detachment which reduces the size of the globe by indenting the sclera so that it approximates the retina.

  • Scleral Diseases

    general disorders of the sclera or white of the eye. they may include anatomic, embryologic, degenerative, or pigmentation defects.

Patient EducationClinical

Benign Tumors

Tumors are abnormal growths in your body. They can be either benign or malignant. Benign tumors aren't cancer. Malignant ones are. Benign tumors grow only in one place. They cannot spread or invade other parts of your body. Even so, they can be dangerous if they press on vital organs, such as your brain.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
