Factors indicating better stereopsis for APAET
The purpose of this study was to determine preoperative factors that affect postoperative stereopsis in patients with acquired partially accommodative esotropia (APAET). This retrospective study was undertaken over a five-year period. Eighty-four subjects had surgery for APAET and 57 met...
PALs use for convergence excess esotropia
This retrospective study includes a disparate group of 39 esotropic patients with an accommodative element from two different clinics with differing prescribing practices. Seven children were excluded due to previous treatment or insufficient follow-up. In all patients single vision glasses...
Slanted MR surgery for convergence excess ET
The authors aimed to evaluate the surgical outcomes of bilateral slanted recessions of the medial rectus (MR) muscles in patients with convergence excess esotropia (ET). This retrospective study included 16 patients with a mean age at surgery of 5.6 ±3.05...
Conversion to strabismus and amblyopia
This study was undertaken to evaluate the incidence of true manifest strabismus, the visual acuity at school screening and whether risk of failing screening is different in those discharged at first visit or followed up. The author reviewed 248 children...
Corpus callosum in infantile esotropia
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) imaging was undertaken with four infantile esotropia (IE) patients and nine controls. All with IE showed an asymmetrical distribution of callosal fibres when comparing two hemispheres. Many fibres terminated near the tips of the occipital cortices....
