Do occult neuroretinitis and non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy differ in presentation?
This study evaluates differences between neuroretinitis and non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAAION) in terms of patient demographics, clinical presentation, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings. Medical records of patients with a final diagnosis of occult neuroretinitis or NAAION were...
Pilot trial of Fluoxetine for post-stroke homonymous hemianopia
The authors present a pilot randomised placebo controlled double blind trial assessing 20mg fluoxetine once daily for 90 days versus placebo in stroke survivors with isolated homonymous hemianopia. Exclusion criteria were extensive in terms of pre-existing ophthalmic or neurologic disease,...
Use of Strabocheck to measure angle of deviation
Strabocheck (SK) is a free to access software and is a measurement of deviation angle based on the corneal light reflex in monocular and binocular photographs uploaded to the website. The purpose of this study was to evaluate SK in...
Is intracranial pressure affected by the valsalva manoeuvres and exercise?
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is characterised by elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), which leads to optic nerve head swelling and a risk of visual loss. The impact of straining and exercise on ICP regulation is poorly understood yet clinically relevant to...
Treatment of progressive keratoconus
This study aimed to analyse the clinical results of accelerated iontophoresis-assisted epithelium corneal cross-linking (i-ON CXL) to evaluate the risk factors for keratoconus progression after treatment, and the safety and efficacy of re-treatment using epithelium-off CXL protocol in paediatric patients....
Clinical features of basic acquired nonaccommodative esotropia requiring surgery
Basic acquired nonaccommodative esotropia (BANAET) is a concomitant esotropia occurring after the age of six months without significant refractive error or accommodative element. Esotropia is similar for both near and distance and children have prior binocular single vision. The purpose...
Being more consistent with screening for convergence insufficiency
This prospective cases series aimed to identify the average values and sensitivity of clinical measurements of convergence to aid diagnosis of convergence insufficiency (CI). Children and adults presenting over a two-year period with symptoms including diplopia when reading, headache with...

Search terms included adult strabismus, amblyopia,...
Early structural and functional retinal changes in intermittent exotropia
This study aimed to evaluate and compare spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD OCT) and electrophysiological measures in patients with intermittent exotropia and healthy controls, to outline changes in retinal and optic nerve structure and function. This was a cross-sectional...
Horizontal recti injection of botulinum toxin for treatment of infantile nystagmus
In this study the authors aimed to demonstrate the effect of botulinum toxin (BT) on the frequency of ocular oscillation in children with infantile nystagmus syndrome (INS). Botulinum toxin was administered with direct injection into the horizontal recti muscles using...
