Purpose: The aim is to be able to advise patients on the choice of sports and exercises regarding the effects on the intraocular pressure.
Methods: The search engines Google Scholar and PubMed were used to search for suitable studies. The studies were summarized, and the most important data were collected in one table for each study. The effect on the IOP was extracted or, if not given in the article, calculated by the difference of means of the IOP after or during exercise, and the baseline IOP before, whenever these values were available.
Findings: A total of 47 studies out of the years 1990 to 2020 that investigated the influence on the IOP of the most popular sports actively practiced in Germany were reviewed and summarized: twelve for running, sixteen for fitness/ weight training, one for swimming/diving, twelve for cycling, four for hiking, and two for yoga.
Conclusions: Throughout all studies and sports it was seen that physical fitness stabilized the IOP. Higher
intensity of exercise led to higher fluctuations of the IOP. Moderate endurance training keeps the IOP fluctuations low and may lead to a lower baseline IOP if practiced on a regular base. Fitness and weight training lead to fluctuations of the IOP in a pronounced manner when performed at moderate and high intensity. Therefore, only a moderate training can be recommended if there is need to keep the IOP stable. Isometric exercise is not recommended as it provokes a rise of the IOP even when performed with light loads. The Valsalva Maneuver should always be avoided as it leads to additional fluctuations of the IOP. Also, the IOP behaved more stable during resistance training when higher fitness was present.
The direct ophthalmoscope is a retinal screening tool that has been in existence and development for more than 150 years, yet, the rapid influence of technological evolution in screening tools, has left the direct ophthalmoscope untouched. The main purpose of this master thesis is to determine if the direct ophthalmoscope has reached its maximum potential of development and, additionally, to determine if a further development, including a more electronic input, would be feasible.
Demographische Veränderungen durch eine zunehmende Alterung der Gesellschaft und eine Zunahme an Erkrankungen wie der AMD, des Glaukoms und der diabetischen Retinopathie stellen ophthalmologische Versorgungs- und Vorsorgemaßnahmen in Deutschland vor immer größere Herausforderungen. Einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Sicherung der Vorsorgemaßnahmen können in der Zukunft Optometristen leisten. Mit Hilfe modernster Technologien, wie dem Ultra-Widefield-cSLO (Optos Daytona, können auch bei kleinen Pupillendurchmessern 200° Aufnahmen vom Augenhintergrund erstellt werden.
Das trockene Auge ist eine komplexe Erkrankung des vorderen Augenabschnitts. Es gibt eine Vielzahl von Ursachen, sowie eine Vielzahl an Therapiemöglichkeiten. Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit Benetzungsmitteln als Therapieform. Es existieren verschiedene Benetzungsmittel, die sowohl von Augenärzten, als auch von Optometristen und Optikern verabreicht werden. Es wird eine Übersicht über alle Benetzungsmittel erstellt, die in der Schweiz von Optometristen verabreicht werden können und ein Schema zur Anwendung je nach Diagnose entwickelt.
