Canaliculitis (Actinomycosis)
Primary chronic canaliculitis is an
uncommon problem caused by A israelii (Streptothrix).
McKellar presented a 10-year-old girl with a 6-month history of intermittent
conjunctivitis and discharge from her pouted left lower punctum. Topical
treatment with chloramphenicol/polymyxin sulphate failed despite a diagnosis
of probable A israelii infection confirmed by microbiology.
Surgical exploration revealed a canalicular diverticulum and 3 canaliculiths
demonstrating solid casts of Actinomycetes on histologic examination. A
therapeutic triad of punctoplasty, cast removal, and adjunctive topical
cefazolin resulted in resolution.
Allergic conjunctivitis is inflammation of
the conjunctiva caused by the body's immune response to allergens such as
molds and pollen.
Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelids. It is a very
common condition that can be associated with a low grade bacterial infection
(staphylococcal blepharitis) or a generalized skin condition (seborrheic
blepharitis).
Conjunctival concretions are yellow-white in the fornix or
palpebral conjunctiva, associated with chronic conjunctivitis (trachoma),
aging. These are epithelial inclusion cysts filled with epithelial and
keratin debris. They can erode overlying conjunctiva to cause foreign body
sensation. They are easily excised.
