INTRODUCTION
DNA-sequencing is not readily available in countries with little research resources or where health insurance does not cover the costs. This is especially true for very rare (orphan) inheritable retinal diseases. We wanted to develop a rapid targeted-sequencing protocol for eight genes involved in Familial Exudative Vitreo-Retinopathy (FEVR), Norrie Disease, and Retinoschisis, at greatly reduced cost.

Microbial Profile Of Lacrimal System Dacryolith In Midwest Patient Population, Peter Kally, Olivia Cheng, Thai Do, Dianne Schachter, Francesca Nesi-Eloff

Conference Presentation Abstracts

Introduction: Dacryoliths of the lacrimal excretory system are found in patients undergoing surgical treatment of primary canaliculitis and nasolacrimal duct obstruction.1,2 Dacryoliths of the canalicular pathway are classically attributed to Actinomyces species, yet a growing body of literature throughout Asia and the Middle East supports a shift towards Streptococcus and Staphylococcus species being the most common cultured organism.1–4 The Midwest microbial profile in 2009 was reported to maintain Actinomyces as the most common organism.1 The objective of this paper is to update the American Midwest demographic and microbial profile of lacrimal system dacryoliths to direct tailored regional approaches to treatment. …
