  1. Well, all comments about iridotomies aside, this is a great video. I am going to use it in a presentation to our residents.

    Out of curiosity, Dorri, were your iridotomies done by an ophthalmologist or an optometrist? Some states allow optoms to do them and it seems like everyone and their mother are getting one. Regardless, it’s a shame you weren’t put on steroids. Undoubtedly, you developed an immune response to the uveal tissue floating around in your eye, and your other problems stem from the resultant uveitis.

  2. great video! May I know the details of the digital slit lamp used to produce it?

    Both flare and cells are so small. How do you tell the difference?

I am planning on doing a post-doctoral optometric residency in ocular disease (1 yr) followed by a glaucoma research fellowship (2 yrs). I will be writing topical Beta blockers, prostaglandins, etc…all day long lol… Your site is a great “brush -up” for me and I really appreciate it! Keep up the good work….

    Recently I was diagnosed with uveitis and as the analysis was being done I was given a running description of what they could see through their slit lamp. I think this video is terrific and should be shown to anyone with that condition so they can have a better understanding of their condition.

  31. Thanks for educating all of us! This is so informative and as most people have quiet ACs its often hard to know what I’m looking for sometimes, so this definitely helped heaps!

    Your efforts to create this video and make it so SHORT so people will watch it, Will probably save countless people’s vision! We THANK people like you Tim Root for helping people like us! WELL DONE!!! πŸ‘πŸ‘
