Choroidal changes after horizontal strabismus surgery
The aim of this study was to investigate choroidal changes in the short-term by looking at the choroidal vascular layer after horizontal strabismus surgery. This was a retrospective study of 27 patients: 12 females and 15 males with mean age...
Medial rectus inferior half plication surgery for near exotropia
In this study the authors report a relatively new surgical treatment for near exotropia. The study included 17 patients: four with previous surgery and all with medial rectus injection of bupivacaine to reduce the angle of deviation. Treatment involved inferior...
Sensory and motor function changes after surgery for epiblepharon
In this study the authors investigate the effect of epiblepharon (EB) correction on motor and sensory function in children with EB and comorbid strabismus. Ninety eyes of 45 children were evaluated: mean age 6.8 ±2.9 years, 18 males, 27 females,...
Description of surgical modification for heavy eye syndrome
For heavy eye syndrome, these authors report a modification to facilitate approximation of the widely separated muscles using a combination of zip-up and hand-over-hand manoeuvres. Ten patients underwent this surgery with unification of the superior rectus and lateral rectus muscles....
Macular choroidal changes after inferior oblique muscle surgery
This study was undertaken to investigate the retinal neurovasculature, choroidal thickness and choroidal vascular index (CVI) changes at the macula at one week, one- and three-month intervals post inferior oblique muscle myectomy. The hypothesis was that, given the close proximity...
Efficacy of augmented-dosed surgery versus botulinum toxin A injection for acute acquired concomitant esotropia
This is a retrospective study of 104 patients diagnosed with acute acquired concomitant esotropia (AACE) between 2020 and 2022. Potential factors that influence the dose-response of bilateral medial rectus recession (MRec) and the rate and risk factors for ACCE relapse...
Long-term motor and sensory outcomes after surgery for high AC/A ratio esotropia
This study reports the long-term ocular alignment and sensory outcomes after medial rectus recession for high accommodative convergence to accommodation (AC/A) ratio esotropia with a minimum postoperative follow-up of five years. The study included 34 patients (16 male); 31 had...
Systematic review of management options for intermittent exotropia
The authors conduct a robust systematic review of the literature to report evidence on non-surgical and surgical treatment options for intermittent exotropia – divergence excess and basic intermittent exotropia types. Discussion centres on (1) optical correction of refractive error with...
Augmented surgery with BTA for large angle strabismus correction
This retrospective study reports the results of botulinum toxin A (BTA) augmented bilateral recession or monocular recession / resection (RR) for patients with large angle strabismus. Twenty-four patients were recruited: 10 female, mean age 9.2 ±13.6 years, 20 esotropia and...
Cataract surgery in the extremely small eye: morphology, comorbidities and outcomes in 300 eyes
This is a retrospective study from Heidelberg University, Germany, between January 2009 to October 2023, including 300 eyes of 191 patients undergoing cataract surgery with short axial length requiring lens implantation of > 30 dioptres. Eyes were classified into the...
Surgical outcomes of primary recess/resection vs readvancement/recession surgery for exotropia
This study compared the surgical yield of primary lateral rectus and medial rectus recession/resection (RR) surgery for basic exotropia, convergence insufficiency type exotropia (CIXT) and divergence excess (DXS) vs. patients undergoing medial rectus readvancement (MRR) +/- lateral rectus recession for...
