Abstract
Nutrients, required by human bodies to perform life-sustaining functions, are obtained from the diet. They are broadly classified into macronutrients (carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins), micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and water. All nutrients serve as a source of energy, provide structural support to the body and/or regulate the chemical processes of the body. Food and drinks also consist of non-nutrients that may be beneficial (e.g., antioxidants) or harmful (e.g., dyes or preservatives added to processed foods) to the body and the ocular surface. There is also a complex interplay between systemic disorders and an individual's nutritional status. Changes in the gut microbiome may lead to alterations at the ocular surface. Poor nutrition may exacerbate select systemic conditions. Similarly, certain systemic conditions may affect the uptake, processing and distribution of nutrients by the body. These disorders may lead to deficiencies in micro- and macro-nutrients that are important in maintaining ocular surface health. Medications used to treat these conditions may also cause ocular surface changes. The prevalence of nutrition-related chronic diseases is climbing worldwide. This report sought to review the evidence supporting the impact of nutrition on the ocular surface, either directly or as a consequence of the chronic diseases that result. To address a key question, a systematic review investigated the effects of intentional food restriction on ocular surface health; of the 25 included studies, most investigated Ramadan fasting (56%), followed by bariatric surgery (16%), anorexia nervosa (16%), but none were judged to be of high quality, with no randomized-controlled trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to measure choroidal thickness, retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, GCC thickness, and foveal thickness by optical coherence tomography and to investigate whether there is a difference between celiac patients who adhere to the gluten-free diet and who do not. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 68 eyes of 34 pediatric patients diagnosed with celiac disease were included in the study. Celiac patients were divided into two groups those who adhere to the gluten-free diet and those who do not. Fourteen patients who adhere to the gluten-free diet and 20 patients who do not adhere to the gluten-free diet were included in the study. Choroidal thickness, GCC, RNFL, and foveal thickness of all subjects were measured and recorded using an optical coherence tomography device. RESULTS The mean choroidal thickness of the dieting and non-diet groups was 249.05 ± 25.60 and 244.18 ± 33.50 µm, respectively. The mean GCC thickness of the dieting and non-diet groups was 96.56 ± 6.26 and 93.83 ± 5.62 µm, respectively. The mean RNFL thickness of the dieting and non-diet groups was 108.83 ± 9.97 and 103.20 ± 9.74 µm, respectively. The mean foveal thickness of the dieting and non-diet groups was 259.25 ± 33.60 and 261.92 ± 32.94 µm, respectively. There was not a statistically significant difference between the dieting group and the non-diet group in terms of choroidal, GCC, RNFL and foveal thicknesses (p = 0.635, p = 0.207, p = 0.117, p = 0.820, respectively). CONCLUSION In conclusion, the present study states that adhering to a gluten-free diet does not make any difference in choroidal, GCC, RNFL, and foveal thicknesses in pediatric celiac patients.

Abstract
Celiac disease is an immune-mediated, chronic, inflammatory, and systemic illness which could affect the eye. The aim of this study is to look for possible signs of retinal involvement in celiac disease that could be utilized as biomarkers for this disease. Sixty-six patients with celiac disease and sixty-six sex-matched healthy subjects were enrolled in this observational case–control study. A comprehensive ophthalmological evaluation, axial length measurements, and SD-OCT evaluation were performed. The thickness of the retinal layers at the circle centered on the fovea (1 mm in diameter) and the average of the foveal and parafoveal zones at 2 and 3 mm in diameter were evaluated, together with retinal volume and the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL). Concerning the thicknesses of the retinal layers in each analyzed region, no statistically significant differences were found. The same results were obtained for the total volume. Regarding peripapillary RNFL, the celiac patients showed slightly thicker values than the healthy controls, except for temporal and nasal-inferior quadrants, with no statistically significant differences. All the analyzed parameters were similar for the celiac patients and the healthy individuals. This could be related either to the non-involvement of the retinal layers in celiac disease pathophysiology or to the gluten-free diet effect.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine if childhood obesity has an effect on the ocular surface and tear film of children who are afflicted. METHODS Patients who had childhood obesity, 85 eyes, and patients who were healthy, 75 eyes, were enrolled in this prospective and comparative study. The tear film breakup time (TF-BUT), tear meniscus area and height (TMA and TMH) values, Schirmer test scores, and ocular surface disease index (OSDI) scores were obtained for all participants. RESULTS The TMH, TMA, TF-BUT, and Schirmer test results were statistically significantly lower in the obesity group (p < 0.001 for all). The children with obesity and insulin resistance had lower TMH, TMA, TF-BUT, and Schirmer test results when compared to the children without insulin resistance (p < 0.05 for all). The body mass index was found to be correlated with the TMH, TMA, TF-BUT, and Schirmer test results (p < 0.001 for all). CONCLUSION Children with obesity had lower TMA, TMH, TF-BUT, and Schirmer test results than healthy subjects. When insulin resistance was added to obesity, these values were even lower.

Abstract
The global prevalence of autoimmune diseases is increasing. As a result, ocular complications, ranging from minor symptoms to sight-threatening scenarios, associated with autoimmune diseases have also risen. These ocular manifestations can result from the disease itself or treatments used to combat the primary autoimmune disease. This review provides detailed insights into the epidemiological factors affecting the increasing prevalence of ocular complications associated with several autoimmune disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The non-classic presentation of paediatric celiac disease (CeD) becomes increasingly common in daily practice, which requires an awareness of eye findings. The purpose of this study was to evaluate eye involvement and effect of gluten-free diet on ocular involvement in paediatric CeD patients by measuring the thicknesses of choroid and ganglion cell complex (GCC) composed of retinal nerve fibre layer, ganglion cell layer and inner plexiform layer using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography. METHODS Forty-three CeD patients aged between four and 16 years (mean age: 9.9 ± 4.1, 12 boys and 31 girls) and 48 healthy children (mean age: 11.3 ± 4.1,17 boys and 31 girls) were compared. Following comprehensive eye examinations, thicknesses of choroid at three points and GCC layers (retinal nerve fibre layer at five points, ganglion cell layer and inner plexiform layer) were obtained using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography. Measurement of thicknesses of choroid and GCC layers by a trained optical coherence tomography technician and an ophthalmologist who were not aware about group of children in paediatric CeD patients with 1 year gluten-free diet was carried out. RESULTS All layers of subfoveal, nasal and temporal choroid were significantly thinner in CeD than in the control group (P < .001, all, respectively). No significant difference was observed between the CeD and control groups in terms of GCC thicknesses (P > .05, all, respectively). CONCLUSION Paediatric CeD caused thinning of subfoveal, nasal and temporal areas of choroid, and this change is apparent even after 1 year gluten-free diet. This eye involvement should be more closely screened at diagnosis, and long-term clinical results of thin choroid should be determined. Thicknesses of GCC layers were not different in CeD group and may reveal the effect of diet or not involvement.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the eyes of adult celiac disease (CD) patients and investigate the association between these ocular parameters with celiac specific antibodies and duration of gluten free diet (GFD). METHODS This cross-sectional study included 72 eyes of 36 CD patients (18-51 years of age) and 70 eyes of 35 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. In addition to a complete ophthalmologic examination, all patients were scanned by a Scheimpflug camera, specular microscopy and spectral domain optical coherence tomography. RESULTS Endothelial cell density (ECD), anterior chamber angle (ACA) degrees, anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber volume (ACV) and central macular thickness (CMT) values were lower in CD patients as compared with control group (p values = 0.038, 0.024, 0.002, 0.038 and 0.046 respectively). ECD and CMT were lower in celiac patients whom endomysial antibodies (EMA) IgA were positive (p = 0.001, p = 0.042 respectively). Tissue transglutaminase IgA antibody (anti tTG IgA) was weakly positively correlated (p > 0.05) with ACD, and positively (r = 0.319; p < 0.05) correlated with ACV. As the duration of compliance to the diet increased in the celiac group the mean and inferior retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness decreased (p = 0.035, p = 0.008 respectively). Mean, inferior and temporal RNFL thicknesses were lower in celiac patients whose duration of GFD was longer than 5 years (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Decreases in ECD, ACA degree, ACD, ACV and CMT can occur in CD patients. In adult celiac patients; ECD, CMT might be effected in the presence of positive EMA, and ACD, ACV might be effected in the presence of higher anti tTG IgA titer. Adult celiac patients who had longer duration of GFD may have thinner RNFL. RNFL may be thinner in celiac patients who comply with GFD for more than 5 years.

Abstract
Congenital Zika syndrome was first described due to increased incidence of congenital abnormalities associated with Zika virus (ZIKV) infection. Since the eye develops as part of the embryo central nervous system (CNS) structure, it becomes a specialized compartment able to display symptoms of neurodegenerative diseases and has been proposed as a noninvasive approach to the early diagnosis of neurological diseases. Ocular lesions result from defects that occurred during embryogenesis and can become apparent in newborns exposed to ZIKV. Furthermore, the absence of microcephaly cannot exclude the occurrence of ocular lesions and other CNS manifestations. Considering the need for surveillance of newborns and infants with possible congenital exposure, we developed a method termed cellular imprinting proteomic assay (CImPA) to evaluate the ocular surface proteome specific to infants exposed to ZIKV during gestation compared to nonexposure. CImPA combines surface cells and fluid capture using membrane disks and a large-scale quantitative proteomics approach, which allowed the first-time report of molecular alterations such as neutrophil degranulation, cell death signaling, ocular and neurological pathways, which are associated with ZIKV infection with and without the development of congenital Zika syndrome, CZS. Particularly, infants exposed to ZIKV during gestation and without early clinical symptoms could be detected using the CImPA method. Lastly, this methodology has broad applicability as it could be translated in the study of several neurological diseases to identify novel diagnostic biomarkers. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD014038.

Abstract
Purpose Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) has been associated with oxidative stress-related risk factors. The objective of this study was to optimize an analytical method for evaluating the oxidative stress biomarker malondialdehyde (MDA) in human tears and determine its level in the tears of patients with CSCR. Methods In this pilot study, tear samples were obtained from 34 healthy donors and 31 treatment-naïve CSCR male patients (eight with acute CSCR and 23 with chronic CSCR). Two analytical methods based on high-performance liquid chromatography followed by fluorescence detection were evaluated, with either 2-thiobarbituric derivative (TBA) or 2-aminoacridone (2-AA). Activity of CSCR was defined by the serous retinal detachment (SRD) height, which was measured by two independent observers on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. Results The 2-AA method showed higher sensitivity and precision compared to the TBA method. When the 2-AA method was applied to tears from healthy donors, the levels of MDA were statistically significantly higher in men compared to women (mean ± standard deviation, SD: 9,914 nM ± 6,126 versus 4,635 nM ± 1,173, p = 0.006). No difference was found in tear MDA levels between male patients with CSCR and age-matched control men (p = 0.17). However, MDA levels were statistically significantly higher in acute compared to chronic CSCR cases (mean ± SD: 12,295 nM ± 8,495 versus 6,790 ± 3,969 nM, p = 0.03). Additionally, there was a correlation between MDA levels and RPE leakage, quantified by the height of the serous retinal detachment (p = 0.02, r = 0.40). Conclusions Levels of MDA in tears, measured with an optimized analytical method, correlate with RPE leakage in CSCR.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate ophthalmic parameters in adult celiac patients. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 31 celiac patients (58 eyes) and 25 healthy controls (50 eyes). Tear break up time (TBUT), schirmer test were measured; corneal thickness, anterior chamber parameters were obtained using scheimpflug camera; retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL) evaluated by using spectral domain optical cohorence tomography. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of gender, age, and intraocular pressure (p > .05). Schirmer's test results and TBUT were significantly lower in celiac patients (p < .001, p < .001). Additionally, the superior RNFL was significantly thinner (p = .017), nasal RNFL thicker (p = .007), and anterior chamber depth larger (p = .037) in celiac patients. The tissue transglutaminase 2 IgA antibody and superior RNFL were negatively correlated (r = -0.394, p = .012). The anterior chamber volume and anti-gliadin IgA antibody were positively correlated (r = 0.369 p = .027). CONCLUSION Celiac disease affects Schirmer's test results, TBUT, segmental RNFL thickness, and anterior chamber parameters. Ocular parameters might be affected in celiac disease especially in the presence of high antibody titer.

The aim of this study was to compare the frequency of sicca symptoms and SS in HCs and CPs.Method: The study included 80 CPs and 100 HCs. This study was designed as a case-control study with four phases. The frequency of SS in CPs and HCs was defined according to the 2002 American-European Consensus Group (AECG) and 2012 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria. The frequency of sicca symptoms and SS was compared between CPs and HCs.Results: Ocular and oral symptoms occurred in 22% and 26% of CPs, respectively, compared to 13% and 10% of HCs, respectively. Proportions with oral symptoms were statistically significantly different between CPs and HCs (p = 0.005), whereas there was no significant difference for ocular symptoms (p = 0.113). According to ACR and AECG criteria, the prevalence of SS was 3.8% and 5.0% in CPs and 3.0% and 2.0% in HCs, respectively.Conclusion: Although oral symptoms were more frequent in CPs than in HCs, the frequency of SS was not different between the groups. The increased frequency of oral symptoms may be related to reasons other than autoimmunity.

Fousekis FS, Katsanos A, Katsanos KH, Christodoulou DK. Ocular manifestations in celiac disease: an overview. Int Ophthalmol 2020; 40:1049-1054. [PMID: 31916055 DOI: 10.1007/s10792-019-01254-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2019] [Accepted: 12/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To review and highlight the ocular manifestations associated with celiac disease (CD) and presentation of their pathogenetic mechanisms. METHODS A thorough review of the literature was performed using PubMed to identify articles about serrated polyposis syndrome. The search was performed using the search string: ("celiac disease" OR "coeliac disease") AND ("ocular manifestations" OR "eye" OR "orbitopathy" OR "uveitis" OR "neuro-ophthalmic manifestations"). Only articles in English were reviewed. RESULTS Several ocular symptoms and disorders have been associated with CD and are a result of defective intestinal absorption and immunological mechanisms. These include nyctalopia, dry eye, cataract, thyroid-associated orbitopathy, uveitis, central retinal vein occlusion and neuro-ophthalmic manifestations. In addition, CD-related ocular disease may represent the first manifestation of CD. CONCLUSION CD may hold accountable for the development of ocular diseases of obscure etiology.

Pachychoroid Pigment Epitheliopathy and Choroidal Thickness Changes in Coeliac Disease. J Ophthalmol 2019; 2019:6924191. [PMID: 30895159 PMCID: PMC6394117 DOI: 10.1155/2019/6924191] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2018] [Revised: 01/14/2019] [Accepted: 01/20/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To evaluate choroidal thickness in patients with coeliac disease (CD) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and to compare the results to normal eyes. Methods Seventy patients with CD and 70 healthy controls were included in this prospective, comparative study. All participants underwent a complete ophthalmologic evaluation and SD-OCT. Subfoveal, nasal (nasal distance to fovea 500 μm, 1000 μm, and 1500 μm), and temporal (temporal distance to fovea 500 μm, 1000 μm, and 1500 μm) choroidal thickness measurements were performed using SD-OCT. Results There were no significant differences in sex, ages, and axial lengths between the groups (p=1.0, p=0.601, p=0.314, respectively). The mean choroidal thickness measurements at all predefined measurement point areas were higher in the coeliac group than in the healthy controls (p < 0.001). Of all patients with coeliac disease (70 eyes of 70 patients), 64 eyes (84.2%) had uncomplicated pachychoroid (UCP), one eye had pachychoroid pigment epitheliopathy (PPE), and five eyes in the UCP group had PPE in fellow eyes. Conclusion It is probable that systemic inflammation in coeliac patients causes the enlargement of choroidal vessels and increasing choroidal thickness. PPE, which is believed to be the precursor of central serous chorioretinopathy, can be observed in coeliac patients.

Abstract
Impression cytology (IC) is a technique which permits the retrieval of the outermost layer of ocular surface cells via the use of various types of filters. It is a minimally invasive method of evaluating human conjunctival epithelial cell morphology in the diagnosis of dry eye disease, a common and distressing disorder associated with ageing, contact lens wear, autoimmune disorders and refractive (LASIK) surgery. IC may also be utilized in the diagnosis of other ocular diseases, such as keratoconus and thyroid orbitopathy. More recently, IC has been utilized for the subsequent investigation of gene and protein expression of conjunctival cells in order to identify novel diagnostic biomarkers and to further our understanding of the mechanisms underlying ocular surface disease. This review will therefore examine the literature concerning the role of IC in identifying cellular markers of eye disease, systemic diseases with ocular involvement and potential novel therapeutic targets.
