Surgical oculocardiac reflex
The authors evaluated the incidence of oculocardiac reflex (OCR) during strabismus surgery to determine its associated risk factors at a tertiary referral centre. Seventy-six patients were reviewed; 51.3% male and a mean age of 15±12 years. Strabismus surgery was bilateral...
SS-MIOCT for suture depth
The authors describe a case in which swept-source microscope-integrated OCT (SS-MIOCT) was used to directly visualise and evaluate key suturing-related steps of strabismus surgery in real time. Using SS-MIOCT, the surgeons could visualise the precise depth of the needle through...
MISS vs. fornix approach
The objectives of this study were to compare minimally invasive strabismus surgery (MISS) with the fornix approach in paediatric horizontal strabismus surgery (<12 years) and to evaluate early postoperative inflammation, visual acuity and operating time after a four-year training period...
MISS vs. conventional surgery
This was a prospective randomised parallel arm design study for 40 patients. Group 1 consisted of conventional strabismus surgery using the limbal approach and group 2 consisted of minimally invasive strabismus surgery (MISS). Mean age was 21.1±2.73 years for MISS...
Importance of vision input to postural stability
This literature review was undertaken to overview postural stability in strabismus and amblyopia. Postural stability is a complex skill that coordinates dynamic sensory mechanisms to facilitate sustained balance. The review discusses critical roles of vision in postural stability, e.g. postural...
Potential gender and degree of deviation bias regarding perceived urgency for surgery
This study aimed to define potential factors that influence the perceived urgency of strabismus surgery by ophthalmologists. This was a survey study which comprised questions regarding demographics of the ophthalmology respondents and a ranking of eight photos of adults with...
Sensory and motor function changes after surgery for epiblepharon
In this study the authors investigate the effect of epiblepharon (EB) correction on motor and sensory function in children with EB and comorbid strabismus. Ninety eyes of 45 children were evaluated: mean age 6.8 ±2.9 years, 18 males, 27 females,...
Medial rectus anatomy in exotropia
This study investigates the differences between extraocular muscles in patients with intermittent exotropia and normal controls regarding muscle fibre arrangement and diameter, and distribution and activation of satellite cells. Fifteen patients were recruited having medial rectus resection surgery. Resection sections...
How reliable is the postoperative diplopia test and can it predict postoperative outcomes?
A two-phase process evaluating the postoperative diplopia test is presented. A standardised operating procedure was used for conducting all postoperative diplopia tests for this study which is described in the paper. Phase one focused on reliability, test-retest and interobserver. Adults...
Clinical and anatomical differences for heavy eye syndrome, highly myopic sagging eye syndrome, and sagging eye syndrome
The authors explored the mechanisms underlying the development of heavy eye syndrome (HES), highly myopic sagging eye syndrome (SES)-like, and SES with the aim to differentiate the three conditions clinically and anatomically to aid treatment decision-making. This was a retrospective...
Iranian prevalence of convergence / accommodative disorders
The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of accommodative and convergence disorders in an optometric clinical population and ascertain tests with the highest sensitivity and specificity in detecting these anomalies. The authors gathered information on symptoms, near...
