Social media have played an increasing role in medicine with potential applications for both physicians and patients. This trend has also impacted clinical and surgical practice in ophthalmology in a wide range of subspecialties to promote scientific research findings, provide further tools for teaching, and ease communication between ophthalmologists across the globe improving patient care. However, social media have certain limitations that need to be overcome to ensure their reliability and quality for physicians and patients. This article provides a review of the current applications and pitfalls of social media in ophthalmology.

Termografia ma zastosowanie w ocenie rozległości oraz nasilenia lokalnego przekrwienia i metabolizmu tkankowego, wykorzystując zjawisko wysokiej termoemisji. W okulistyce używana jest w diagnostyce stanów zapalnych gałki ocznej. Wzrost temperatury gałki ocznej obserwuje się w guzach nowotworowych takich jak czerniak oraz naczyniak błony naczyniowej. Obniżenie temperatury jako efekt zaburzeń ukrwienia stwierdza się w zatorach naczyniowych, jaskrze, retinopatii cukrzycowej czy AMD. Zaobserwowano niższą emisję promieniowania podczerwonego na powierzchni gałki ocznej w zespole suchego oka, na skutek zaburzonego filmu łzowego i szybszego parowania. Termografia jest metodą nieinwazyjną, szybką oraz obiektywną, która może w przyszłości stanowić uzupełnienie w diagnostyce wielu schorzeń okulistycznych.

Thermography is used to assess the extent and intensity of local hyperaemia and tissue metabolism based on the emitted radiation in the infrared range. In ophthalmology, it is used for the diagnosis of ocular inflammatory conditions. Increased ocular surface temperature is observed in tumours such as melanoma and uveal naevus. Reduced temperature as a result of blood flow disorders is detected in patients with vascular occlusion, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy or AMD. Lower emission of infrared radiation on the ocular surface was observed in dry eye syndrome due to tear film instability and faster tear evaporation. Thermography is a non-invasive, fast and objective technique, and in the future it may complement the diagnostic process of many ophthalmic diseases.
