Section 1: HEENT, Ocular & Head Disorders (Questions 1–15)

,1. A 42-year-old male presents with acute onset of severe left eye pain, photophobia,

blurred vision, and halo perception around lights. Examination shows a cloudy

cornea, mid-dilated non-reactive pupil, and ciliary flush. Tonometry reveals an

intraocular pressure (IOP) of 48 mmHg. What is the immediate first-line medical

intervention?


 A. Topical Timolol 0.5%, Pilocarpine 2%, and oral Acetazolamide

 B. Immediate administration of broad-spectrum topical fluoroquinolones

 C. Emergent warm compresses and oral amoxicillin-clavulanate

 D. Reassurance and systemic NSAID therapy

 Correct Answer: A

 Rationale: The patient presents with acute angle-closure glaucoma (emergency).

Initial management aims to drop IOP rapidly using topical beta-blockers (Timolol),

miotics (Pilocarpine), and carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (Acetazolamide) while

arranging emergent ophthalmology consultation.


2. A 28-year-old female presents with bilateral burning eye discomfort, gritty

sensation, and crusted eyelashes upon awakening. On physical exam, the eyelid

margins are erythematous and thickened with flaking scales adherent to the lash

bases. What is the primary initial treatment strategy?

,  A. Daily eyelid hygiene with warm compresses and diluted baby shampoo scrub

 B. Systemic oral corticosteroids for 14 days

 C. Topical corticosteroid drops four times daily

 D. Oral doxycycline twice daily for 6 months

 Correct Answer: A
 Rationale: Anterior blepharitis is managed primarily with non-pharmacological eyelid

hygiene (warm compresses to liquefy meibomian secretions and eyelid scrubs to

remove crusting/debris). Antibiotics or topical steroids are reserved for refractory

cases.


3. A 6-year-old child presents with a 2-day history of purulent discharge from the

right eye, conjunctival injection, and matted eyelids upon waking. There is no

photophobia or visual change. Fluorescein staining is negative. What topical

antimicrobial is recommended for acute bacterial conjunctivitis?


 A. Erythromycin 0.5% ophthalmic ointment or Trimethoprim-Polymyxin B drops

 B. Topical tobramycin-dexamethasone combination drops

 C. Oral azithromycin single dose

 D. Topical acyclovir ophthalmic ointment

 Correct Answer: A

,  Rationale: Uncomplicated acute bacterial conjunctivitis in non-contact lens wearers

is treated empirically with topical erythromycin ointment or polymyxin B/trimethoprim

drops. Contact lens wearers require fluoroquinolone coverage against

Pseudomonas.


4. A 34-year-old female presents with acute severe vertigo, nausea, and vomiting

lasting for 3 days following a viral upper respiratory infection. She reports no hearing

loss or tinnitus. Neurological exam is unremarkable except for spontaneous

horizontal nystagmus. What is the most likely diagnosis?


 A. Vestibular Neuritis

 B. Meniere Disease

 C. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)

 D. Acoustic Neuroma

 Correct Answer: A
 Rationale: Vestibular neuritis causes prolonged, acute continuous vertigo following

a viral illness without auditory symptoms. Meniere disease presents with hearing loss

and tinnitus; BPPV causes brief positional episodes; acoustic neuroma presents with

progressive unilateral hearing loss.
