Prevention of sports-related eye injury.

Sports-related eye injury is an important cause of vision loss. Many eye injuries can be prevented through the supervision of play, the enforcement of game rules and the use of eye protective devices. State-of-the-art eye protective devices incorporate highly impact-resistant optical material, usually polycarbonate lenses, in a sturdy frame. Protective devices are available for use in racquet sports, baseball, basketball, football, ice hockey and other sports.

Retinal vasculopathy associated with systemic light chain deposition disease.

A 35-year-old black male with the abrupt onset of blurred vision and decreased visual acuity was found to have severe retinal vasculopathy associated with systemic light chain deposition disease. While ocular manifestations are frequently reported in other plasma cell dyscrasias; ophthalmologic symptoms have not been previously reported in systemic light chain deposition disease alone. A possible mechanism of light chain deposition and damage to the retinal vasculature is proposed.
