Recurrent corneal erosions secondary to isotretinoin use

Isotretinoin (13–cis-retinoic acid) is the first line treatment for moderate to severe nodulocystic or papulopustular acne [1,2]. Although it is a safe medication, it has several adverse side-effects, including ophthalmic manifestations, as shown in Table 1 [3]. These side-effects need...

Effectiveness of supramaximal horizontal surgery for third nerve palsy

The purpose of this study was to present the outcomes and progress of third nerve palsy cases after supra-maximal recession / resection. The aim is for an initial overcorrection of 15-25PD at day one. This was a retrospective study of...

Clinician predictions and the perspectives of parents prior to strabismus surgery compared

The aim of this study was to assess the perspectives and concerns of parents in relation to exotropia surgery in comparison to how clinicians predicted parents would respond. Parents of children with intermittent exotropia who underwent surgery over a nine-month...

Making sense of the orthoptic assessment

Following the Specialty Trainee article on this topic in the February/March 2020 issue, Joe Smith provides a more detailed breakdown of the orthoptic report. Orthoptists investigate, diagnose and manage a wide variety of patients with varying problems. In this article,...

A look into the IOL space

Advances in the design and performance of intraocular lenses (IOLs) continue to be driven by demand for better outcomes, presbyopia correction and spectacle independence, alongside a better understanding of the dynamics of the crystalline lens, newer theories of accommodation and...

Large language models in ophthalmology

Traditional artificial intelligence (AI) models typically require large amounts of labelled data for training. For example, to develop a model capable of detecting macular pathologies on optical coherence tomography scans, thousands of scans would need to be manually labelled by...

Medial rectus recession for Mobius sequence

The authors reviewed the long-term outcomes of medial rectus (MR) recession alone for Mobius sequence. This was a retrospective review. Surgery involved recession of 4-6.5mm plus inferior transposition if needed for V pattern. Success was defined as within 8PD of...

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...

Long-term improvement of stereopsis in intermittent refractive esotropia

This was a retrospective study to review the records of patients with refractive accommodative esotropia (RAET) to determine long-term stereoacuity (SA) improvement in those that showed initial poor or no stereopsis. The study included 79 patients; 54% male and mean...

Acute comitant esotropia as the presenting sign of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma

The authors present four children with acute comitant esotropia (AACE) associated with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. All were treated with radiation therapy and all subsequently died due to the tumour. Children were aged 5, 5, 4.5 and 11 years. General...
