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...

OCT angiography findings in amblyopic eyes

In this study, optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) was used to detect the existence of any vascular dysfunction in superficial and deep retinal layers that accompany visual impairment in amblyopic eyes compared to fellow and control eyes. The study included...

OCT angiography metrics in children

This prospective study aimed to quantify the vessel density of both the macular and optic nerve and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) values in 92 normal eyes of 92 children (42 boys, 50 girls) aged 13.4 ±2.65 years (seven to 18)....

Prisms to treat AACE

Of 128 patients reviewed with binocular dysfunction, 30 (23.4%) had acute acquired concomitant esotropia (AACE). These patients complained of sudden onset diplopia at distance with no or moderate problems at near. There was no previous history of strabismus. Mean age...

Residual esotropia surgery comparisons

The aim was to compare lateral rectus resection and plication methods in patients with residual esotropia for postoperative success rate, dose response, ipsilateral medial rectus limitations and reoperation. The study included 57 patients (31 female, 26 male) with 27 plication...

Positives and negatives of managing diplopia in adults with prisms

This study recruited consecutive patients prescribed prisms during a two-year period, within set criteria of a deviation up to 30 prism diopters, good fusion, willingness to wear prisms and no previous unsuccessful use of prisms. The majority of cases had...

Outcomes for IRS implantation for keratoconus

The authors report visual and topographic outcomes of intracorneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation alone or in combination with corneal cross linking (CXL) and long-term results in halting keratoconus in paediatric patients. This study was a retrospective design including 19 patients...

Medium-term outcomes following photo screening

A photo-screening project of preverbal children was conducted in 2016 in Portugal consisting of enrolment of two-year-old children and referral of these if having a positive screen to paediatric ophthalmology plus a screen of four-year-old children who missed or had...

Outcomes for acute acquired non-accommodative comitant esotropia

Outcomes are reported in a retrospective review of 338 patients with acute acquired non-accommodative comitant esotropia (AACE). Mean age at presentation was 12.60 ±9.37 years and 220 were male, 118 female. Best corrected visual acuity was 0.2 ±0.29 logMAR overall;...

Differences in strabismus surgery outcomes in preterm vs full-time birth infants

This study aimed to analyse motor and sensory outcomes of strabismus surgery in 70 preterm (group 1) and 242 full-term (group 2) infants. Group 1 mean gestational age and birth weight were 31.25 ±2.51 weeks and 1562.70 ±412.82g. Pre and...

Science maps to outline emerging topics in strabismus

Science maps show the current status of research in a specific field – a form of scientometrics. Co-word analysis is an example of graphic modelling in which keywords are used to study the conceptual structure of a research field. In...

Three-year results of 0.01% and 0.1% loading dose atropine treatment including washout in Danish children with myopia: a placebo-controlled, randomised clinical trial

This was a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomised clinical trial of 97 children to examine the safety and efficacy of low-dose atropine (0.1% and 0.01% loading dose) after 2-year treatment and 1-year washout in 6–12-year-old Danish children with myopia. Ninety-one children were...
