Toric spectacle lenses were first described in 1847 by George Biddell Airy, and their adoption was, presumably, gradual at that time. Today, correction of astigmatism with glasses is routine. In a recent survey, 87.2% of spectacle prescriptions contained at least...
A new technique for correction of medial ectropion with a lax medial canthal tendon
This is a prospective study of a new technique for repair of medial ectropion associated with medial canthal tendon (MCT) laxity. The procedure was performed on 79 eyes and involved excision of an ellipse of tissue from below the punctum...
Changes in refractive error in patients with accommodative esotropia after being weaned from hyperopic correction
This is a retrospective review of medical records of 47 patients with refractive ocular accommodative esotropia who achieved emmetropisation and orthotropia without hyperopic glasses correction and were followed up for at least three years. The objective of the study is...
Literature review of associations for refractive error, and correction, on development of amblyopia and accommodative esotropia
The authors report a literature review to determine the available evidence for the association between hypermetropia, astigmatism, anisometropia and the influence of early glasses and the development of amblyopia or accommodative esotropia. Studies were included where children were first examined...
Outcomes of strabismus surgery for TED
This study investigated the surgical outcome according to the initial postoperative angle of deviation after strabismus surgery in patients with hypotropia and esotropia who had thyroid eye disease (TED). The study included 78 patients with mean age of 53.4 ±9.5...
FSAK versus toric IOL implantation for correcting astigmatism in cataract patients
Nine studies of 590 patients were retrieved from the Ovid-Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane register of controlled trials and Scopus which compared femtosecond laser-assisted astigmatic keratotomy (FSAK) and toric IOL for astigmatism correction in cataract patients. The trial sequential analysis was used...ABDO National Resource Centre secures first digital sponsor

Single vs combined y-split surgery for Duane’s type III
The authors present the results of two surgical approaches to treat exotropia Duane’s retraction syndrome (DRS) with significant overshoot and retraction. This study compared single Y-split recession of the lateral rectus muscle vs combined Y-split lateral rectus recession plus medial...
Partial recession surgery for small angle vertical strabismus
The objective of this study was to assess the results of partial recessions of the vertical rectus muscles in patients with diplopia and small angle vertical strabismus. This was a retrospective study of partial temporal or nasal recession from one...
