Introduction

Congenital anomaly eye other refers to a group of eye disorders that are present at birth and affect the structure or function of the eye. These anomalies can range from mild to severe and may impact vision and overall eye health. The aim of this guide is to provide an overview of the symptoms, causes, diagnostic steps, possible interventions, and lifestyle interventions for congenital anomaly eye other.[1][2]

Code

  • ICPC-2 Code: F81 Congenital anomaly eye other[3]
  • ICD-10 Code: Q15.9 Congenital malformation of eye, unspecified[4]

Symptoms

  • Abnormal eye appearance[5]
  • Vision problems[6]
  • Eye misalignment[7]
  • Nystagmus (involuntary eye movement)[8]
  • Strabismus (crossed or misaligned eyes)[9]
  • Ptosis (drooping eyelid)[10]
  • Coloboma (hole or gap in eye structures)
  • Cataracts (clouding of the eye lens)
  • Glaucoma (increased pressure in the eye)
  • Retinal abnormalities

Causes

  • Genetic factors
  • Exposure to certain medications or substances during pregnancy
  • Maternal infections during pregnancy
  • Chromosomal abnormalities
  • Intrauterine growth restriction
  • Premature birth

Diagnostic Steps

Medical History

  • Gather information about the patient’s family history of eye disorders or congenital anomalies
  • Inquire about any maternal infections or exposure to medications or substances during pregnancy
  • Ask about any symptoms or vision problems experienced by the patient

Physical Examination

  • Observe the appearance of the eyes, including any abnormalities or misalignment
  • Test visual acuity using an eye chart
  • Assess eye movement and alignment
  • Examine the eyelids and look for signs of ptosis
  • Perform a thorough examination of the anterior and posterior segments of the eye

Laboratory Tests

  • Genetic testing to identify any chromosomal abnormalities or specific gene mutations
  • Blood tests to check for any underlying medical conditions or infections
  • Electroretinography (ERG) to evaluate the function of the retina
  • Ultrasound of the eye to assess the structures within the eye

Diagnostic Imaging

  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scan to obtain detailed images of the eye and surrounding structures
  • Optical coherence tomography (OCT) to visualize the layers of the retina and optic nerve
  • Fluorescein angiography to assess blood flow in the retina

Other Tests

  • Visual field testing to evaluate peripheral vision
  • Electrooculography (EOG) to measure the electrical activity of the retina
  • Corneal topography to assess the shape and curvature of the cornea
  • Intraocular pressure measurement to screen for glaucoma

Follow-up and Patient Education

  • Schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor the progression of the condition and assess the effectiveness of interventions
  • Provide education to the patient and their family about the nature of the congenital anomaly, potential complications, and available treatment options
  • Refer the patient to appropriate specialists, such as pediatric ophthalmologists or genetic counselors, for further evaluation and management
