lacks blood vessels
and lymphatics
Stroma
(transparency,
success of corneal
transplantation)
• Descemet
Descement membrane
membrane
increases in
thickness with age.
Endothelium
Pathology of Cornea
• Corneal vascularization may accompany chronic
corneal edema, inflammation, and scarring
• Decrease in endothelial cells or a malfunction of
endothelium results in stromal edema, which may be
complicated by bullous separation of the epithelium
(bullous keratopathy)
Pathology of Cornea

• Etiology : bacterial, fungal, viral (especially herpes simplex and
herpes zoster), and protozoal (Acanthamoeba)

activation of collagenase (Thinned)
• Exudate and cells leaking from iris and ciliary body vessels into
the anterior chamber (hypopyon)
• Chronic herpes simplex keratitis may be associated with a
granulomatous reaction involving
Descemet membrane

PATOLOGI SEGMEN
ANTERIOR
Pathology of Anterior Segment

• Lens is a closed epithelial system; the basement membrane of


the lens epithelium (lens capsule) totally envelops the lens
• With aging, the size of the lens increases
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Aqueous humor :
• Pars plicata of the
ciliary body
• Posterior chamber
• Through the pupil
• Anterior chamber
• Trabecular meshwork
• Schlemm canal
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Cataract
• Lenticular opacities that may be congenital or acquired
• Condition associated with cataract :
• Galactosemia
• Diabetes mellitus
• Wilson disease
• Atopic dermatitis
• Drugs (especially corticosteroids)
• Radiation
• Trauma
• Many intraocular disorders are associated with cataract
• Age-related cataract typically results from opacification of the
lens nucleus (nuclear sclerosis)
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Cataract
• The accumulation of urochrome pigment may render the
lens nucleus brown
• The lens cortex may liquefy
• Occasionally, High-molecular-weight proteins from liquefied
lens cortex may leak through the lens capsule (phacolysis) -
may clog the trabecular meshwork - elevation in intraocular
pressure and optic nerve damage - secondary open angle
glaucoma
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Glaucoma
• Collection of diseases characterized by distinctive changes in
the visual field and in the optic nerve cup
• Associated with elevated intraocular pressure, although
some individuals with normal intraocular pressure may
develop characteristic optic nerve and visual field changes
(normal or low-tension glaucoma)
• Classification :
1. Open-angle glaucoma
aqueous humor has complete physical access to the
trabecular meshwork – increase resistance to outflow
2. Angle-closure glaucoma
Iris adheres to the trabecular meshwork
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Glaucoma
1. Open-angle glaucoma
a. Primary
• The most common form of glaucoma
• Mutations in the myocilin (MYOC) gene, optineurin
(OPTN) gene
b. Secondary
• Phacolytic glaucoma – (from cataract material)
• Ghost cell glaucoma (RBC)
• Pigmentary glaucoma (Iris)
• Melanomalytic glaucoma (necrotic tumor)
• Elevation of episcleral venous pressure
Pathology of Anterior Segment

• Transient apposition of the pupillary margin of the iris to
the anterior surface of the lens - iris bombé - apposing to
trabecular meshwork - corneal edema and bullous
keratopathy
b. Secondary

• Tumors in the ciliary body
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Glaucoma
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Glaucoma
• Elevated intraocular pressure in infants and children :

• Adult eye, prolonged elevation of intraocular pressure :
• Focal thinning of sclera
• Uveal tissue may line ectatic sclera (staphyloma)
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Endophthalmitis and Panophthalmitis
Intraocular inflammation, vessels in the ciliary body and iris become
leaky, allowing cells and exudate to accumulate in the anterior
chamber
• Keratic precipitates - adhere to the corneal endothelium
• Anterior synechiae - adhesions between the iris and the
trabecular meshwork or cornea
• Posterior synechiae - adhesions between the iris and anterior
surface of Lens - deprive lens epithelium of contact with
aqueous humor - anterior subcapsular cataract
Pathology of Anterior Segment
Endophthalmitis and Panophthalmitis
• Endophthalmitis is reserved for inflammation within the
vitreous humor
• Suppurative inflammation in the vitreous humor is poorly
tolerated by the retina - irreversible retinal injury
• Exogenous (originating in the environment through a wound) or
endogenous (delivered to the eye hematogenously).
• Panophthalmitis is applied to inflammation within the eye that
involves the retina, choroid, and sclera and extends into the
orbit

3. Autoimmune (sympathetic ophthalmia)
bilateral granulomatous inflammation –
panuveitis
Pathology of Uvea
Uveitis

the anterior segment or both the anterior and
posterior segments
• Inflammation in one compartment is typically
associated with inflammation in the other
Pathology of Uvea
Uveitis
Sympathetic ophthalmia
• Injured eye - retinal antigens sequestered from the
immune system - lymphatics in the conjunctiva -
delayed hypersensitivity – Injured eye and
noninjured eye contralaterally affected (2 weeks -
years after injury)

with visual symptoms
