目前Wetlab眼科手术教学采用猪眼球作为教学模型,与实际手术差别较大,且无法满足外眼手术教学的需求。通过使用带有眼球、眼外肌、眶组织、眶骨及眼睑结构的全眼模型,可高度模拟真实手术场景,覆盖更多眼科手术教学需求。基于全眼模型构建多个眼科手术教学平台,依照培养阶段设计手术课程,创建新的评价体系,改变传统将“内眼”“外眼”分开的教学理念,可使年轻医师从一开始就建立眼科“分科而不分割”的整体思维,从而使眼科手术培训更加规范和完善。
Porcine eyes have been used as animal model in ophthalmic surgery training. However, it differs greatly from real surgery and cannot meet the needs of external eye surgery teaching. Porcine orbit model with eyeball, extraocular muscles, orbital tissue, bones and eyelids can be more realistic simulation of real surgeries and cover more needs for ophthalmic surgery teaching. By setting up ophthalmic surgery teaching platforms, designing staged course and creating new assessment methods based on porcine orbit model, the traditional concept about separation of internal and external eye is changed. This helps young doctors to establish a holistic view from the very beginning,that ophthalmic surgeries should not be split because of subspeciality. In this way, ophthalmic surgery training will become more standardized and perfected.
近些年来,眼科疾病的临床诊断治疗及其病理发展的研究对医学影像学技术的要求日益增高,磁共振技术已广泛应用于研究眼科疾病的发病机制、治疗和分析预后。基于体素的形态学分析(voxel-based morphometry,VBM)作为一种新型的磁共振图像的分析方式,VBM可以对活体脑进行无创的形态学研究,定量分析磁共振图像中每一个单独体素内的白质、灰质的密度和体积的变化,从而反映对应区域的解剖学结构差异,能发现常规MRI不能检测到的灰质和白质结构的细微改变。不同于那些只作用于预设的感兴趣区域的分析方法,VBM完全没有偏向性,它探测全脑的异常变化,无需对感兴趣区的先验性假设,不会被研究人员的主观思维影响。这提供了一种全新的方法来探索眼科疾病中的神经病理变化,尤其在青光眼和弱视的研究中应用最多。
With the increasing requirements for medical imaging technologies in clinical diagnosis, treatment and pathological basis research of ophthalmic diseases, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been broadly used in the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of ophthalmic diseases. As a novel analytic method of MR images, voxel-based morphometry (VBM) quantitatively analyzes the changes in brain gray, white matter density and volume in each individual voxel in MR images to reflect the differences of anatomical structures in the corresponding areas, and it provides a novel way to reveal the neuronal pathological changes in ophthalmic diseases.
视网膜微循环与脑小血管具有相似的特征。视网膜被认为是可检测到的“窗口”,以检测在神经退行性疾病中发生的微血管损伤。光学相干断层扫描血管造影(optical coherence tomography angiography,OCTA)是一种非侵入性成像方式,可提供视网膜、脉络膜和视神经中血流的深度分辨图像。现总结有关OCTA在与眼科相关的阿尔茨海默病、帕金森病、多发性硬化症及视神经退行性疾病等神经系统疾病中的应用,并讨论其可否作为早期诊断和监测神经退行性疾病的重要工具。
Retinal microcirculation shares similar features with cerebral small blood vessels. Thus, the retina may be considered as an accessible ‘window’ to detect the microvascular damage occurred during the development and progression of neurodegenerative disorders. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a non-invasive imaging modality providing in-depth and high-resolved images of blood flow in the retina, choroid,and optic nerve. In this review, we summarize the current advances in the application of OCT-A in neurological diseases associated with ophthalmology such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and optic nerve degenerative diseases. Future directions for evaluating whether OCTA can be used as an important tool to early diagnose and monitor the neurodegenerative disorders are also discussed.

光学相干断层扫描血管成像(optical coherence tomography angiography,OCTA)是一种非接触、无创的、快速的血管造影技术,它通过检测红细胞在血管内的光学相干断层扫描(optical coherence tomography,OCT)信号的变化来提供血管影像。由于这项技术不需要注射血管造影剂,使得它比传统的眼科血管造影技术更安全。在前节疾病的检查中,OCTA不仅能够量化前节血管的范围和密度,还显示出良好的成像质量,为临床监测疾病的病程和对治疗的反应提供客观的评价。
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a noncontact, noninvasive, and rapid angiography technique. It provides vascular images by detecting changes in the optical coherence tomography (OCT) signal of red blood cells in the blood vessel. Since this technique does not require injection of angiography, it is safer than traditional ophthalmic angiography. In the examination of anterior segment diseases, OCTA can not only quantify the range and density of anterior segment blood vessels, but also shows good imaging quality, providing an objective evaluation for clinical monitoring of the disease course and response to treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the application value of empowerment education mode in health education for patients with dry eye syndrome. Methods: Patients with dry eye syndrome were recruited from Department of Ophthalmology, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University from June 2017 to December 2017. All patients were randomly divided into the experimental group (n=73), educated with empowerment education mode, and control group (n=73), treated with traditional health education. Patients were followed up after 1 week, 1 month,2 months and 6 months, respectively. Data were collected in each follow-up visit including ocular surface disease index (OSDI), tear film break up time (BUT), the frequency of home care (cleaning eyelid margin, hot compress,palpebral gland massage) and re-visit frequency. Results: The OSDI and BUT were similar between two groups before corresponding treatment (P>0.05). After the treatment, patients in the experimental group showed a downtrend in the OSDI and uptrend in the BUT. No significant changes were found in the control group during the follow-up. The frequency of family nursing and re-visit in the experimental group was statistically higher than that in the control group. Conclusion: The application of empowering education mode can improve the compliance of dry eye patients, improve the frequency of home care and follow-up visit, and mitigate the ocular surface of patients, thereby enhancing the long-term efficacy.
