Matoba (p. 451) 等观察到一系列和眼表防腐剂聚季铵盐 (ployquaternium-1 [PQ-1]) 使用相关的树枝状角膜病变。此病例系列中, 研究者回顾了16名患者的病历记录, 这些患者或通过接触镜消毒护理液 (n=13) , 或通过人工泪液制剂 (n=3) 接触PQ-1。所有患者在停止PQ-1暴露后2∼6周内树枝状病变均缓解。由于16名病例中10名被初诊为单疱病毒性角膜炎或棘阿米巴角膜炎, 因此文章作者强调鉴别诊断的重要性。作者总结: 树枝状病灶 性质粗糙、呈灰色隆起, 周围见粗糙上皮病变, 但缺乏上皮糜烂, 这些特征均有助于临床医生区分PQ-1相关角膜病变和感染性病变。

A 60-year-old man with a history of schizoaffective disorder, diabetes, and hypertension presented for central floaters and blurred vision in both eyes (OU). He had a longstanding history of antipsychotic drug use and staring at the sun. Best corrected visual acuity was 20/30 in the right eye (OD) and 20/40 in the left eye (OS). Ophthalmoscopy demonstrated areas of yellow, central macular reflex in each eye (Figs 1 and 2). Optical coherence tomography evinced areas of atrophy in the retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors, and outer retinal segments in the fovea OU (Fig 3A–B).

A nodular tumor had grown from the palpebral conjunctiva over the lower lid margin of the left eye in a 62-year-old man during 5 months (Fig 1A). Histopathologically, a smaller portion around the lid margin resembled squamous cell carcinoma (Fig 1B, right). It merged into a major undifferentiated portion replacing the palpebral conjunctiva, with high mitotic activity (Fig 1B, left), focal glandular differentiation including mucin production (Fig 1C, Acian blue positive), and immunopositivity for cytokeratin-7 (Fig 1D) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA).

A 56-year-old man presented with 20/400 vision in the right eye. Ophthalmoscopy revealed deep retinal punctate mottling extending temporally (Fig 1, left). En face optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrated corresponding hyperreflective dots at the level of the outer retina (Fig 1, top right). Serologic testing confirmed a diagnosis of active syphilitic chorioretinitis. The patient received intravenous penicillin for 7 days. On 1 week follow-up vision had improved to 20/30 with en face outer retinal OCT revealing disappearance of the hyperreflective dots (Fig 1, bottom right).
