Description
Obsolete Eye and Adnexa Disease: A Rare Condition
Obsolete eye and adnexa disease, also known as ocular adnexa disease or disease of the ocular adnexa, is a rare condition that affects the sensory system in the eye or its surrounding tissues. This disease is characterized by a disorder of the ocular adnexa, which includes the eyelids, conjunctival sac, lacrimal drainage system, lacrimal gland, and orbital contents except for the eye and optic nerve.
Definition and Characteristics
According to various sources [1, 3, 8], obsolete eye and adnexa disease is a sensory system disease that is located in the eye or the adnexa of the eye. It is considered an obsolete term, meaning it is no longer used in modern medical practice [3].
Symptoms and Manifestations
The symptoms and manifestations of this condition can vary depending on the specific type of disease. However, some common features include:
- A rare eyelid malposition disorder characterized by a horizontal fold consisting of redundant skin and underlying pretarsal orbicularis muscle overriding [4]
- Sudden onset of orbital inflammation, periocular pain, swelling, and redness of the eyelids, proptosis, ptosis, and ocular motility disturbances [5]
- An ocular adnexal reactive lymphoid hyperplasia made up of lymphoplasmacytic infiltrations and reactive lymphoid follicles [6]
Diagnosis and Management
The diagnosis of obsolete eye and adnexa disease is typically based on a combination of clinical evaluation, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. The management of this condition involves a multidisciplinary approach, including ophthalmology, otolaryngology, and general surgery.

Specific Signs and Symptoms
- Bilateral diffuse lesions in the ocular adnexa [5]
- Lacrimal gland lesions [5]
- Left superior eyelid swelling and bilateral lacrimal gland lesions [5]
- Blurry vision and discomfort in the eye [7]
- Blurred or decreased vision, photopsia, scotomata, diplopia, and other symptoms [8]
- Prolonged dark adaptation and metamorphopsia [9]
Other Eye Diseases
- Macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cataracts can cause vision problems with varying symptoms [10]
- Symptoms of eye diseases can be felt (e.g., pain, irritation, or eye tiredness) or observed (e.g., signs or symptoms of an eye condition) [11]

Diagnostic Tests
Diagnostic Tests for Obsolete Eye and Adnexa Diseases
The diagnosis of various eye and adnexa diseases has evolved over time, with new tests and technologies being developed to improve accuracy and effectiveness. However, some older diagnostic tests may still be relevant in certain contexts.
- Corneal Topography (Keratography): This test, also known as corneal mapping, is used to evaluate the shape of the cornea. It may be included in a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation for patients with distortion of vision [1].
- Schirmer Test: Although the results of this test can be variable, it is still used in some cases to diagnose dry eye syndrome and other subtypes of ocular surface disorders [4].
- Immunoassays and PCR Testing: These laboratory tests are commonly used to diagnose infectious diseases such as EBV and HIV, which can affect the eyes and adnexa [5].
Other Diagnostic Methods
In addition to these specific tests, a comprehensive eye exam is still the primary tool for diagnosing eye diseases. This may involve:
- Blood Tests: These can be used to look for specific chemical markers related to immune conditions that may be affecting the eyes or adnexa [13].
- Specialized Examinations: In some cases, special examinations such as corneal topography or Schirmer testing may be required to identify specific ocular disorders or establish the presence of associated systemic disease [10].

Treatment
Based on the provided context, it appears that there are various treatments available for diseases affecting the eye and its adnexa.
- Inflammatory Eye Diseases: RCI001, a novel drug candidate, has been shown to inhibit Rac1 and the NLRP3 inflammasome, making it a potential treatment for inflammatory eye diseases. According to Kim et al., mice treated with RCI001 showed no significant increase in IOP until week 5, indicating its safety in treating inflammatory ocular surface diseases [13].
- Dry Eye Disease (DED): The International Dry Eye Workshop (DEWS) characterizes DED as a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film and accompanied by ocular symptoms. There are several forms of dry eye, including aqueous-deficient dry eye, evaporative dry eye, and mixed dry eye [15].
- Other Treatments: While not explicitly mentioned in the context, it is worth noting that other treatments may be available for specific diseases affecting the eye and its adnexa. These could include medications, surgical interventions, or other therapies.
It's essential to consult with a medical professional for personalized advice on treating any disease affecting the eye and its adnexa. They can provide guidance based on individual circumstances and help determine the most effective course of treatment.

Differential Diagnosis
The differential diagnosis of an obsolete eye and adnexa disease refers to the process of ruling out other possible conditions that may be causing symptoms similar to those of the disease in question.
According to various medical sources [1, 4, 6], when considering a diagnosis for an obscure or outdated ocular condition such as lymphoid hyperplasia (LH) of the orbit and ocular adnexa, it is essential to consider a wide range of differential diagnoses. These may include:
- Reactive and malignant conditions
- Lymphomas involving the eye and ocular adnexa [5]
- Lymphoproliferative disease of the ocular adnexa: a clinical and pathologic study with statistical analysis of 69 patients [5]
- Diseases of the Eye and Ocular Adnexa, which can be arcane and require detailed clinical information, labor-intensive gross examination, and histological techniques for accurate pathological diagnosis [6]
In addition to these conditions, other differential diagnoses may include:
- Idiopathic orbital inflammation
- Ocular adnexal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma
- Infections such as abscess or granuloma
- Neoplasia or non-infectious granuloma [14]
- Cutaneous and ocular adnexal mass lesions, which can be caused by a variety of conditions including neoplasm, infectious or noninfectious granuloma [14]
It is also worth noting that the differential diagnosis for LH includes a wide range of reactive and malignant conditions, as well as lymphomas involving the eye and ocular adnexa [5].
