Bitot Spots

Bitot spots are foamy, triangular, greyish-white deposits on the whites of the eyes that are a classic sign of vitamin A deficiency (VAD). They form from a buildup of keratin on the conjunctiva and indicate a progression from dryness (xerophthalmia) that, if left untreated, can lead to night blindness and even permanent blindness. Treatment involves vitamin A supplementation and addressing the underlying causes of deficiency, such as malnutrition, infections, or other vitamin deficiencies.

Causes
• Vitamin A deficiency (VAD)
• Malnutrition
• Infections: Diseases like measles, chickenpox, and diarrhea can increase VAD by impairing absorption and increasing excretion of vitamin A.

Symptoms
Foamy, silver-gray, or whitish deposits on the whites of the eyes.
Spots are often triangular, with the base at the edge of the iris (limbus).
Dryness of the conjunctiva (xerosis).
In later stages, there may be night blindness, corneal dryness, and keratomalacia (softening of the cornea).

Treatment and management
• Vitamin A supplementation
• Dietary changes
• Monitoring: Regular follow-ups are crucial to ensure the spots resolve and to prevent recurrence.

What Is the Cause of Lazy Eye?

Amblyopia can develop from other eye and vision problems. Here are some conditions that may cause amblyopia in a child.

• Strabismus
This is when the eyes point in two different directions. One eye may be focused straight ahead while the other turns in, out, up, or down. To avoid seeing double, the child’s brain may learn to ignore the eye that is not focused straight ahead.

• Refractive errors
Having a refractive error means being nearsighted, farsighted, or having astigmatism (distorted or blurry vision). If a child has refractive error that is worse in one eye, the child's brain may “turn off” that eye and vision will not develop properly. This can be difficult to tell since the child’s vision seems fine when using both eyes.

Cloudiness in the normally clear parts of the eye
Some children are born with a cataract, where the eye's normally clear lens is cloudy. This can keep vision from developing properly in that eye.

• Droopy eyelid
Ptosis, or a droopy eyelid, can block vision in a child’s developing eye and lead to amblyopia.

Retinoblastoma — The Most Common Intraocular Malignancy in Children

Retinoblastoma is a malignant tumor of the retina arising from the retinoblast (embryonic retinal cell) due to mutations.
It is life-threatening, but highly curable when detected early.

EPIDEMIOLOGY:
Most common intraocular malignancy of childhood.
Usually diagnosed before 5 years of age.
Can be hereditary (40%) or sporadic (60%).
Bilateral in hereditary cases; unilateral in sporadic cases.


CLINICAL FEATURES:

Leukocoria (white pupillary reflex) — most common presenting sign.
Strabismus (due to macular involvement).
Diminished vision.
Pain, redness, or secondary glaucoma in advanced stages.
Rarely, orbital inflammation or proptosis if extraocular spread occurs.

DIAGNOSTIC FINDINGS:

Fundus Examination: Creamy-white retinal mass, often with calcification and overlying vessels.
Ultrasound (B-scan): Highly reflective intraocular mass with calcifications.
CT / MRI: Used to detect calcification, optic nerve invasion, or extraocular spread.
Genetic testing for RB1 mutation in bilateral or family cases.

MANAGEMENT:
Depends on tumor size, location, and extent of spread:
Focal therapy
Laser photocoagulation
Cryotherapy
Thermotherapy

COMPLICATIONS:
Optic nerve invasion
Orbital extension
Metastasis to brain or bone marrow
Secondary malignancies (in hereditary cases after radiation)

Key Takeaway

Retinoblastoma = Life + Vision emergency.
Early detection and multidisciplinary management can ensure over 95% survival and preserve useful vision in many cases.
