About the Phthisis Bulbi Session
Phthisis bulbi is a serious eye condition marked by the progressive shrinkage and atrophy of the eyeball. It typically stems from severe trauma, chronic infections, or untreated inflammation that severely damages the eye's structure. As the eye loses its integrity, it shrinks and may even collapse within the socket. Symptoms include a visibly shrunken eyeball, impaired vision, and potential complications like glaucoma in the unaffected eye. Treatment aims to manage pain, preserve cosmetic appearance, and address underlying causes when possible. In advanced cases, surgery may be considered to alleviate discomfort or for cosmetic purposes. Phthisis bulbi poses significant challenges in ophthalmology, requiring ongoing monitoring and care to mitigate complications and improve patients' quality of life.
