■ Tympanogram : -

● ossicular disruption : type Ad ( hypermoile)

● secretory OM : type B ( flat)

● adhesive OM : type C

● E T dysfunction : type C (-ve peak)

● otosclerosis : type As ( restricted curve

● oscillatory in glomus tumor

■ Notes on audiology :
● Poor speech discrimination in acoustic neuroma
●Acoustic ( stapedial) reflex is absent in case of facial paralysis & otosclerosis
● ABR measures electrical acitivity in cochlear nerve & brain stem &  used in detection  acoustic neuroma ( delayed wave V)
● OAEs is used for detection of cochlear pathology ( ototoxicitiy & noise exposure)
● hearing aids are using in case of :
♧ congeintal deafness as CAA
♧ Aquired deafness :
♤ CHL : when operation is CI or refused
♤ SNHL : cochlear otosclerosis , presbyacusis  
● PTA:
♧ it used for selection of hearing aids
♧ when you perform it , mask of non ear test to avoid cross transmission
♧ frequncy : 125 to 8000 Hz , while intensity from -10 to 120 dB
♧ CHL =  increases Ac threshold + normal BC = air bone gap
♧ SNHL = increase both AC & BC threshold ( no air bone gap) 
♧ Mixed = both AC & BC increased but more AC = air- bone gap

■ NOTES on TTT of glucoma :-

● Both BBs & CAi & brimonidine act on decrease production of aqueous
● PG analogue & adrenaline act on increase outflow of aqueous
● Brimonidine is CI under the age of 2 years
● Acetazolamide is given in case of acute attack of glucoma with high IOP
● Never given BBs at bed time to avoid profound Hypotension
● Betaxolol is selective B blocker  & Increase ON blood flow
● PG consider as 1st line of TTT , while BB as a 2nd line , BB considers as 1st line if there is no CI
● Nerver give adrenaline locally for fear of closed angle glucoma 
● Mannitol is DOC in Acute closure glucoma , but CI in DM
● Trabeculectomy is DOC in case :
Congeintal glucoma , POAG , PACG 

■ Notes on 2ry glucoma :-
● Open angle :
♤Acute iridocyclitis , 2ry iridocyclitis (early non perforated corneal ulcer), Rubeosis iridies
♤ steriods , sublaxation of lens
♤ Hypopyon , hyphema
♤ DR , CRVO
♤ Phacolytic , phacoanaphylactic glucoma
♤ Pseudo- exfoliation, Pigmentry glucoma
● Closed angle :
♧ Ant. Staphyloma, Ant dislocation of lens , leucoma adherent
♧ Mydriate in narrow angle , maligant glucoma
♧ Occlusion , seclusion ( pupilae)
♧ Inversus , phacomorphic (glucoma), PAS
♧  End stage of NVG
