This study aim to determine the percentage of Blindness among patients, who visit retina clinic, and to know the main retinopathies leading to blindness, and to achieve this purpose, medical records of 852 patients who visited retina clinic between January 2015 and January 2016 were analyzed. That information was classified according to the visual acuity and retinopathy. Data was entered and analyzed using SPSS version 23.

Research summary
تتناول هذه الدراسة الأسباب الرئيسية للعمى عند المرضى المراجعين للعيادة الشبكية في مشفى المواساة الجامعي بدمشق. تم تحليل بيانات 852 مريضًا راجعوا العيادة بين يناير 2015 ويناير 2016 باستخدام برنامج SPSS النسخة 23. ووجدت الدراسة أن نسبة العمى ثنائي الجانب بلغت 8.7%، بينما كانت نسبة العمى أحادي الجانب 31%. كان اعتلال الشبكية السكري السبب الأول للعمى بنسبة 39.73%، تلاه انفصال الشبكية الشقي بنسبة 15.34%، ثم الرض العيني بنسبة 13.97%، وأخيرًا تنكّس البقعة المرتبط بالعمر بنسبة 8.77%. توصي الدراسة بضرورة تعزيز الوعي الصحي بمرض السكري وأهمية الفحص الدوري للعينين لتجنب مضاعفات اعتلال الشبكية السكري، بالإضافة إلى توعية المجتمع حول الوقاية من الرضوض العينية.
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: تعتبر هذه الدراسة مهمة جدًا لفهم الأسباب الرئيسية للعمى في المجتمع السوري، إلا أن هناك بعض النقاط التي يمكن تحسينها. أولاً، كان من الأفضل تضمين بيانات من عدة مستشفيات للحصول على صورة أشمل وأكثر تمثيلاً. ثانيًا، لم تتناول الدراسة بشكل كافٍ العوامل الاجتماعية والاقتصادية التي قد تؤثر على نتائج العمى. وأخيرًا، كان من الممكن تقديم توصيات أكثر تحديدًا حول كيفية تحسين الرعاية الصحية للمرضى المصابين باعتلال الشبكية السكري.

To determine the percentage of Diabetic retinopathy patients among patients presenting at retina clinic at Almouassat University Hospital, and to study their systemic and ocular history, their diabetic retinopathy classification and macular involvement.
Aim: to determine the value of RNFL thickness at which visual field defect becomes detectable. Methods: Our study included 29 normal subject and 36 glaucomatous patient (one eye per person) .Every person was examined by OCTOPUS perimetry with glau coma 30-2 program, and peripapillary RNFL thickness was measured by HIEDELBERGSPECTRALIS SD_OCT. Results: comparison of results showed higher sensitivity of OCT compared to Perimetry. Mean RNFL thickness at which visual field defect showed was 87 microns. Superior RNFL thickness value which correlated with inferior visual field defect was 101 microns, whereas inferior RNFL thickness value which correlated with superior visual field defect was 75 microns .and the difference in RNFL thickness between normal and glaucomatous visual field was significant (p<0.001). Conclusion: in open-angle glaucoma , it needs significant thinning in RNFL before visual field defects becomes detectable.
Background& Objective: Onychomycosis is a frequent nail disease caused by dermatophytes, yeasts, and non-dermatophyte molds. Far more than being a simple cosmetic problem, infected nail serves as a chronic reservoir, which can give rise to repeated mycotic infections. This study aim to identify the common fungal species which are responsible for onychomycosis in clinically suspected patients of onychomycosis in Dermatology and Venereal Diseases Hospital in Damascus between October 2010 and July 2011. Materials & Methods: Both direct microscopy and culture of the nail material were performed to identify the causative fungi of onychomycosis. Results: Culture positivity was obtained in 65 of the 76 clinically suspected samples, etiological fungal agents were (%61.5) dermatophytes, (24.6%) yeasts, and (13.9 %) non-dermatophyte molds . The isolated fungal species were (43.1%) Trichophyton Rubrum and (16.9%) T. Interdigitale (1.5%) T.Verrucosum Aspergillus Versicolor which was the most frequent non dermatophyte molds. Females were affected in fingernails more frequently than males, while males were affected in toenails more frequently than females, and in both sexes those most infected were between 20-40 years of age. Conclusion: Dermatophytes, in particular T. rubrum, but also T. Interdigitale, are the most frequently isolated causative agents in onychomycosis in patients seen in Dermatology and Venereal Diseases Hospital in Damascus . In addition, yeasts may be isolated relatively frequently, while molds are uncommon.
During 2016 we have made 167 survey bronchoscopy (101 males & 66 females),they had been done by flexible fibroscope (pentaxTM) slim diameter . Patients has prepared for the endoscopy by local anesthesia on nose ,pharynx and larynx using Lidocaine .In few particular cases , the sedation has been done by Midazolam (5mg) intravenous . The endoscopy's tolerance was good and no complication that require recovery occurred . The indications of the endoscopy were suspected malignancy, 49 cases had diagnosed in the rate of 56.3%. The disorders had been diagnosed and isolated in the case of suspected infections in 11 patients in the rate of 45.8%.The tuberculosis had been diagnosed in 9 patients in the rate of 42.8%. In hemoptysis cases ,bleeding site and causing factor had causing factor had been detected in 12 patients in rate of 63%. In chronic cough cases, the diagnosis had been confirmed in 4 patients in the rate of 50%. In case of interstitial pulmonary lesions , the diagnosis had been confirmed in 4 patients in the rate of 50%. After the study ,we emphasize the importance of broncoscopy as survey diagnostic instrument especially in malignancy cases , other negative tests (blood, sputum ), suspected infections , tuberculosis ,hemoptysis cases and interstitial lesions .Especially it is external good tolerances procedure with rare complication.
