Lateral rectus superior plication surgery as an option for adult onset esotropia
This study presents results of bilateral superior plication of the lateral rectus for treatment of adult onset esotropia, as a less invasive surgical option. This was a retrospective study of 15 patients with mean age of 51.5 ±12.6 years; 67%...
EDTA chelation for band keratopathy
The authors describe a retrospective analysis of 89 eyes from 72 patients who underwent ethlenediamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) chelation for band keratopathy. The ratio of R:L eye was 41:48. The mean age was 71 years (range 18-93 years). Thirty-two out...Could the sclera be key to glaucoma?
The glaucomas are a group of conditions characterised by optic neuropathy and associated visual field defects. Of these, chronic open-angle glaucoma (COAG) – diagnosed on the basis of progressive structural changes to the optic nerve head (ONH) and nerve fibre...Orbis launches podcast and vodcast series exploring cutting edge tech
A new podcast and vodcast series exploring cutting edge tech to curb rise in preventable blindness has been launched by international eye health charity, Orbis.
Prism adaptation test in acquired non-accommodative esotropia
This study investigated factors related to the increase in prism adapted angle in patients with acquired non-accommodative comitant esotropia (ANAET) who had strabismus surgery based on the results of a short prism adaptation test (PAT) and evaluated their outcomes. Short...
Bilateral medial rectus recession outcomes for acute acquired comitant esotropia vs infantile esotropia
In this study, the aim was to describe the surgical dose response of bilateral medial rectus muscle recession (MRR) in acute acquired comitant esotropia (AACE), compared to infantile esotropia (IET). This was a retrospective study of 114 patients; 39 AACE...
Risk with density of suppression
The authors wished to determine the current practice of assessing and interpreting the density of suppression with the Sbisa / Bagolini filter bar in the management of amblyopia in the UK and to estimate the incidence of intractable diplopia following...
Three methods of suppression measurement
Test-retest reliability and interchangeability are evaluated for three filter bars available to measure density of suppression: Sbisa bar, Bagolini filter (BF) bar and neutral density filter (NDF) bar. The study involved 10 strabismic adults. Testing conditions were altered and effects...
EP in a case of abducens nerve palsy
Ecchordosis physaliphora (EP) is a rare non-malignant mass that originates from remains of the notochord and is typically asymptomatic. Symptomatic cases are extremely rare, and the majority are managed by surgical resection. This case study reports a 42-year-old male who...
Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery – A Practical Guide
The treatment of patients with mild to moderate glaucoma has evolved rapidly in the last decade. Traditionally, medical and laser treatments were the mainstay of therapy for this group of patients. Trabeculectomy, non-penetrating surgery and glaucoma drainage implants were reserved...
Retreatment of myopic LASIK with femtosecond and custom ablation
The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors for retreatment post laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). A retrospective chart review was carried out for a four-year period and all patients who had undergone LASIK at the Boston...
