The blockage of the eye’s drainage prevents the proper flow of
aqueous humor, which can increase intraocular pressure. In a
healthy eye, aqueous humor flows normally through the drainage
channels, such as the trabecular meshwork and Schlemm’s canal.
Ocular hyperthyroidism and goiter describe the effects of Graves’
disease, manifested in neck enlargement and eye protrusion. This
autoimmune condition causes drastic physical changes due to the
excess of thyroid hormones.
Ocular myasthenia: an autoimmune disorder that causes weakness
in the eye and eyelid muscles. It triggers double vision and eyelid
drooping due to a failure in nerve transmission. Treatment is based
on immunosuppressants and medications.
Ocular reactive arthritis: manifestation of an immune response to
past infections causing inflammation in the eyes (uveitis). It triggers
redness, pain, and blurred vision, requiring a multidisciplinary approach
between rheumatologists and ophthalmologists for effective treatment
and long-term prevention of visual complications.
Onychomycosis: this fungal infection, caused by dermatophytes,
generates color changes, thickening, and brittleness in toenails.
Humidity and inappropriate footwear favor its development. Treatment
includes topical or oral antifungals to restore nail health and appearance
effectively.
The open aortic valve stenosis has an altered function in
systemic circulation. Moreover, under normal conditions,
the aortic valve opens fully. Additionally, it allows efficient
blood passage.
The oropharyngeal cancer has an altered function in pharyngeal
activity. Moreover, under normal conditions, the oropharynx
allows passage of air and food. Additionally, it contributes to voice
production.
The oropharyngeal cancer tumor has an altered function in
pharyngeal activity. Moreover, under normal conditions, the
oropharynx allows passage of air and food. Additionally, it
contributes to voice production.
The oropharyngeal cancer tumor has an altered function in
pharyngeal activity. Moreover, under normal conditions, the
oropharynx allows passage of air and food. Additionally, it
contributes to voice production.

activity. Moreover, under normal conditions, the oropharynx allows
passage of air and food. Additionally, it contributes to voice production.
The oropharyngeal tumor has an altered function in pharyngeal activity.
Moreover, under normal conditions, the oropharynx allows passage of air
and food. Additionally, it contributes to voice production.
The otitis externa of the ear has an altered function in sound
conduction. Moreover, under normal conditions, the ear canal
protects the inner ear. Additionally, it maintains a proper
environment through earwax.
