The Eye in Sleep Apnea

Description: Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is a disease characterized by recurrent complete or partial upper airway obstructions during sleep. The majority of patients with SAS demonstrate this obstruction either at the nasopharynx or the oropharynx. Risk factors for SAS include obesity, male gender, upper airway abnormalities, alcohol use, snoring, and wide neck girth. Reported ophthalmic findings in patients with SAS include floppy eyelid syndrome (FES), glaucoma, keratoconus, and non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). This course provides clinically relevant information on sleep apnea syndrome and it ophthalmic implications. Speaker: Joe Pizzimenti, OD
