Question 1

Fovea:&#10;A)Receive nutrients from the choroid&#10;B)Mostly rods&#10;C)Sensitive to dim light&#10;D)Located nasally to the optic disc

Accepted Answer

The fovea receives its nutrients from the choroid, as it is a highly specialized area in the retina for high acuity vision and lacks its own blood vessels, relying on the choroid for nourishment.

Question 2

The following are appropriate interventions for acute Dacryocystitis, except:&#10;A)DCR&#10;B)Warm compressors&#10;C)Topical antibiotics&#10;D)Systemic antibiotics

Accepted Answer

Topical antibiotics&#10;

Question 3

Regarding benign intracranial hypertension, one of the following is false:&#10;A)Bilateral 6th nerve palsy&#10;B)Headache&#10;C)Visual disturbances&#10;D)Nausea/vomiting

Accepted Answer

Bilateral 6th nerve palsy is not a typical feature of benign intracranial hypertension (also known as idiopathic intracranial hypertension). The condition is more commonly associated with symptoms like headache, visual disturbances, and sometimes nausea/vomiting due to increased intracranial pressure.

Question 4

Which of the following is not supplied by the 3rd cranial nerve:&#10;A)Ciliary muscle&#10;B)Dilator papillae&#10;C)Superior oblique&#10;D)Superior rectus

Accepted Answer

The 3rd cranial nerve, also known as the oculomotor nerve, supplies motor innervation to most of the extraocular muscles, including the superior rectus, medial rectus, inferior rectus, and inferior oblique muscles, as well as the levator palpebrae superioris muscle. It also supplies parasympathetic fibers to the ciliary muscle and the sphincter pupillae muscle (which constricts the pupil). The superior oblique muscle, however, is innervated by the 4th cranial nerve (trochlear nerve), not the 3rd cranial nerve. The dilator pupillae, which dilates the pupil, is innervated by sympathetic fibers, not by the 3rd cranial nerve.

Question 5

One of the following is not a treatment for esotropia:&#10;A)Bilateral lateral rectus resection&#10;B)Medial rectus recession, Lateral rectus resection&#10;C)Bilateral medial rectus recession&#10;D)Bilateral medial rectus recession and resection of one lateral rectus

Accepted Answer

Bilateral lateral rectus resection is not a treatment for esotropia; it would exacerbate the condition by further pulling the eyes inward. Treatments for esotropia typically involve weakening the overly strong medial rectus muscles (via recession) or strengthening the opposing lateral rectus muscles (via resection), but not resecting both lateral rectus muscles.

Question 6

One of the following is false regarding ophthalmia neonatorum?&#10;A)Bilateral purulent discharge is typical of gonorrheal conjunctivitis&#10;B)Systemic antibiotics can be used&#10;C)Most commonorganism is Chlamydia trachomatis&#10;D)Single instillation of povidone-iodine 2.5% solution is effective against common pathogens.

Accepted Answer

The answer of One of the following is false regarding...

Question 7

All are complications of chronic anterior uveitis, except:&#10;A)Retinal detachment&#10;B)Iris atrophy&#10;C)Glaucoma&#10;D)Cataract

Accepted Answer

Retinal detachment is not a typical complication of chronic anterior uveitis; it is more commonly associated with posterior segment diseases. Chronic anterior uveitis typically leads to complications such as iris atrophy, glaucoma, and cataract.

Question 8

One of the following is not associated with 3rd nerve palsy:&#10;A)Miosis&#10;B)Mydriasis&#10;C)Ptosis&#10;D)Affected eye turns slightly outward and downward

Accepted Answer

Miosis, which is pupil constriction, is not associated with 3rd nerve palsy. Instead, mydriasis (pupil dilation), ptosis (drooping eyelid), and the affected eye turning slightly outward and downward are symptoms of 3rd nerve palsy.

Question 9

One of the following eye drops is not used for glaucoma treatment?&#10;A)Dorzolamide&#10;B)Tropicamide&#10;C)Brimonidine&#10;D)Pilocarpine

Accepted Answer

Tropicamide is used as a mydriatic and cycloplegic agent for diagnostic purposes, such as dilating the pupil for eye examinations, not for treating glaucoma. Dorzolamide, Brimonidine, and Pilocarpine are all used in the management of glaucoma.

Question 10

The most common orbital metastasis in men are cancer of the:&#10;A)Carcinoid&#10;B)Colon&#10;C)Melanoma&#10;D)Lung

Accepted Answer

The most common orbital metastasis in men is lung cancer. Orbital metastases often occur in advanced stages of systemic cancers, and the lung is a frequent primary site for these metastases in men, reflecting the high incidence of lung cancer in this population.
