Surgery for myopic esotropia
The authors report a modified Jenson procedure for the treatment of high axial myopic esotropia. Their study includes 15 eyes of 13 patients with a mean age of 50±10.4 years. Mean spherical refraction was -22.53±6.06 dioptres. Mean axial length was...
Surgery for chin-up head posture
This study evaluates the outcomes of bilateral superior oblique posterior tenectomy along with inferior rectus recessions (minimum of 5mm) on the chin-up head position in 13 patients with horizontal nystagmus who had an eccentric null point in downgaze. The study...
Immediate postop alignment differences between adult and childhood ET
The purpose of this study was to investigate the immediate postoperative alignment among patients undergoing successful surgery for esotropia and to determine whether there are any differences between children and adults. This was a retrospective case review of 544 cases;...
Laser pointer maculopathy
The objective of this study was to describe the potential clinical presentations of retinal pathology resulting from exposure to laser pointers. The study included eight eyes of seven patients. Mean age was 18.7 years (12-36). Most were accidental self-inflicted while...
Surgical outcomes for intermittent exotropia of the same angle
The authors evaluated the long-term surgical outcomes and associated factors in patients with the same preoperative angle of deviation in intermittent exotropia after undergoing the same amount of bilateral rectus muscle recession. This was a retrospective review of 102 patients...
Postnatal weight gain as adjunct to ROP screening
The purpose of this study was to assess postnatal weight gain as a tool to stratify infants at risk of developing severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in a US Midwestern neonatal ICU cohort. The authors sought to develop a simpler...

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of low to moderate dose oral steroids in patients diagnosed with ocular myasthenia gravis (MG). This was a retrospective case series. The study reviewed 23 patients; 15 males and eight...
Surgical treatment for monocular elevation deficit
Type 1 monocular elevation deficiency is a restrictive form identified by positive results on forced duction testing in elevation, normal elevation forced generation test, elevation of saccadic velocity and absence of poor Bell’s phenomenon. The authors aimed to evaluate the...
Timed resolution of subperiosteal empyema
The purpose of this study was to examine the quantitative changes in subperiosteal empyema (SE) size over time and the time to complete radiographic resolution of this. This was a retrospective case review of 15 cases with orbital cellulitis and...
Surgery for unilateral superior oblique palsy
This study evaluates the amount of effectiveness of inferior oblique myectomy in primary position, lateral gaze and head tilt, and the effect on improving extent of abnormal head posture. The study included 39 patients; 22 male, 25 left-sided palsy and...
Myopia rate of change from 5-20 years
Data was collected from the 2008-12 KNHANES survey and the study included 7695 of 9351 subjects with refractive data. The mean age was 11.8 years (5-20 range) with 48.2% female. Mean spherical equivalent was -1.82 ±2.23D. For five-year-olds, the mean...
