Surgical management of high myopia strabismus
This is a small case series of three patients with unilateral or bilateral high myopia with exotropia and hypotropia. Surgery involved nasal loop myopexy between the medial and superior recti muscles with or without lateral rectus recession and / or...Artificial intelligence co-creation for educational learning tools and targeted simulators
Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tools are becoming increasingly common within clinical practice and medical education, and using AI in simulation as a pure learning tool and for assessment has been widely discussed. Targeted, efficient use of such tools has been shown...The Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness: How ICEH maintains the cornerstone of global eye health data
In this paper we will discuss The Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness (RAAB), a survey methodology that has become the single largest source of population eye health data globally. The origins of RAAB The RAAB is a rapid, population-based survey...Optegra Eye Health Care & ZEISS Symposium - Hands-on with latest innovations in ophthalmology
This interactive symposium, presented by Optegra Eye Care and ZEISS, will explore the latest advancements in surgical techniques, diagnostic tools, and patient care. We are proud to announce a special emphasis on practical learning through hands-on workshopsThe ‘theatre of the mind’: Charles Bonnet Syndrome and Esme’s Umbrella
The founder of Esme’s Umbrella shares her experience with the poorly understood condition Charles Bonnet Syndrome and the creation of the campaign. Many years ago, when I was a young actress, I was in an American play called ‘Butterflies are...
AlloDerm for correction of lower lid retraction
This is a retrospective review of 95 eyes of 54 patients undergoing orbital decompression for Graves’ orbitopathy. All patients had a swinging eyelid approach across the whole of the lower lid. Thirty-six eyes also had insertion of a 0.3mm thick...
Topical anaesthetic strabismus surgery
This prospective observation study was undertaken with 16 symptomatic diplopia patients (15 male, one female) from various causes. All underwent single stage adjustable strabismus surgery (SSASS) under topical anaesthesia. Mean age was 28.12 years (range 19-65) and all had a...
Outcomes of horizontal muscle transplantation
The authors propose the technique of transplantation of the resected muscle segment to the previously recessed muscle for correction of residual / recurrent strabismus in order to restrict surgery to one eye and avoid large recession of previously recessed rectus...
OCT findings after strabismus surgery for macular, choroidal and nerve fibre thickness
This study used OCT to investigate the changes in the central macular thickness, subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) after horizontal rectus surgery for patients with strabismus. This was a retrospective study and patients were grouped...
Prism adaptation responses for variable distance-near deviation in intermittent exotropia
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the prism adaptation test (PAT) on angle and distance-near-deviation (DND) in intermittent exotropia (IXT), and determine the frequency of responders and non-responders to PAT. This was a single-centre study...
