Prevalence of strabismus in neurofibromatosis type 1
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of strabismus in NF1 by comparing children with normal neuroimaging to those with optic pathway glioma. The study included 236 children with NF1, of which 38 were excluded with no...
Retinal microvasculature in amblyopic eyes
This study evaluated and compared measurements of macular vessel density and foveal avascular zone using optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography in amblyopia eyes and age-matched controls to determine whether results are in agreement with previous studies. This was a cross...
Amblyopia risk factors in premature children
The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence and timing of presentation of amblyopia risk factors in premature children during the first three years of life. This was a retrospective study including 145 of 292 premature children. Retinopathy...

Long-term treatment of blepharospasm using Botulinum Toxin A
The authors report findings from a retrospective single-centre study which aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term botulinum A toxin (BAT) treatment in patients with blepharospasm (BPS). Blepharospasm is described as one of the most frequent types of...
Using video-oculography to record monocular eye movements
The aim of this study was to examine the characteristics of monocular eye movements recorded using video-oculography (VOG). VOG monocular recording has become increasingly popular in comparison to electro-oculographic binocular recording, due to its simple technique. The authors evaluated the...
Benefit of selenium and vitamin D supplementation in thyroid eye disease
There is some limited evidence of as association between thyroid eye disease (TED) and nutritional deficiencies including selenium and vitamin D. Prior studies show that selenium can reduce TPO-antibody concentrations and improve hypothyroidism and post-partum thyroiditis. Limited evidence also shows...
Link between compression of anterior visual pathway structures and visual deficit
The compression of anterior visual pathway (AVP) structures can be observed on neuroimaging. It is not clear whether or not this compression results in damage to these structures. The authors present a single centre retrospective case record review over the...
Choroidal vascularity in NAION
The authors present a cross-sectional, non-interventional study of healthy volunteers and those with non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) recruited over a six-month period at a single site. NAION is the most common cause of acute optic neuropathy over the...
