IOP reduction and progression of high myopic glaucoma
This retrospective study of 131 eyes with high myopia (refraction >-6.0 dioptres or axial length >26mm), best corrected vision 20/40 or better, open angle and follow-up period of more than five years, were included from Korea. Based on the intraocular...
Iranian strabismus prevalence
This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of heterotropia and heterophoria in Iran. This was a cross-section study undertaken in 2013 with the target population of grade 1 (seven-year-old) children. Seven cities across different geographical locations were included with multistage...
Collamer lenses for accommodative ET
Posterior chamber phakic IOL implantation was used to treat patients with accommodative esotropia (ET) with the goal of eliminating hyperopia and producing orthophoria. Three patients (six eyes) aged 18-22 years had an average follow-up of 17 months ±6.24. The mean...
Choroidal thickness in strabismus and amblyopia
The authors examined the effect of exotropia, esotropia, anisometropic amblyopia and hypermetropia on choroidal thickness in a prospective cross section study. The study included 100 patients and 20 controls with a mean age of 8.5±2.9 years; 61 female and 59...
Myopia rate of change from 5-20 years
Data was collected from the 2008-12 KNHANES survey and the study included 7695 of 9351 subjects with refractive data. The mean age was 11.8 years (5-20 range) with 48.2% female. Mean spherical equivalent was -1.82 ±2.23D. For five-year-olds, the mean...
Potential mechanism of over / under actions of inferior oblique muscles
In this paper, the authors hypothesise that fusional vergence adaptation, in patients who can fuse in at least some gaze positions, can cause curvature of the non-fixing eye movement paths of patients with apparent overaction or under action of the...
Development of testing protocols for high and low contrast visual acuity
Dysfunction of the afferent visual system, characterised by impairments in high-contrast visual acuity (HCVA) and low-contrast visual acuity (LCVA) have been demonstrated in some neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease. HCVA and LCVA are also potential quantitative...A case of Miller Fisher Syndrome and bilateral asymmetric globe retraction
Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a rare, acquired nerve disease that is considered to be a variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome. It was first recognised by James Collier in 1932 as a clinical triad of ataxia, areflexia and ophthalmoplegia. Later, it...
Capsular tension rings to reduce refractive shift
The study group aimed to determine whether the use of a capsular tension ring (CTR) can increase refractive stability in patients with implantation of two different trifocal intraocular lenses. This was a prospective, consecutive series of eyes which underwent refractive...
Refractive changes over time for fully accom esotropia
The purpose of this study was to determine refractive error changes across time and to define factors contributing to decompensation in patients with fully accomodative esotropia (FAET). This was a retrospective study of 223 patients with a mean age at...
