Presentation of conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia
Ocular surface squamous neoplasia is the umbrella term for malignancies of the conjunctiva and within the spectrum lies conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) – a non-invasive malignancy. CIN has been implicated with ageing, smoking and ultraviolet light exposure. The typical manifestation...
Management and outcomes of congenital fibrovascular pupillary membranes (CFPM)
Congenital fibrovascular pupillary membranes (CFPM) is defined as a white fibrous membrane across the pupil which may be an ectopic iris tissue arising from the aberrant migration of neural crest cells or a variant of persistent fetal vasculature. The authors...
Effects of ML4 on the eye
Mucolipidosis type IV (ML4) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease and is caused by variants of the MC0LN1 gene. It often presents in young individuals with eye and ocular adnexa issues. The authors present a case report and literature...
Risks to visual function from blepharokeratoconjunctivitis
This study evaluated the prevalence of blepharokeratoconjunctivitis (BKC) and prevalence of amblyopic risk factors with comparison of these rates to rates in the general US paediatric population. The authors evaluated the rate of patient reported symptoms in patients with and...
Choroidal thickness in strabismus and amblyopia
The authors examined the effect of exotropia, esotropia, anisometropic amblyopia and hypermetropia on choroidal thickness in a prospective cross section study. The study included 100 patients and 20 controls with a mean age of 8.5±2.9 years; 61 female and 59...
Results of single muscle advancement surgery
The aim of this study was to determine quantitatively the efficacy of medial and lateral rectus muscle advancement in consecutive exotropia and esotropia. The authors analysed the relationship between the change in muscle position and the change in visual angle...
Effective contrast ratio as a measure of binocular visual perception
The authors used a binocular phase combination paradigm to quantitatively evaluate and compare the binocular visual perception of normal individuals and patients with different types of strabismus to understand the binocular visual perception of patients with strabismus and evaluate whether...
Predictors for developing strabismus after paediatric cataract surgery
This study investigates the predictors for strabismus development in patients with paediatric cataract and their final visual acuity. The aim was to improve the treatment of both deprivation and strabismic amblyopia after surgery. The study included 46 children; 21 male,...
Reporting the development and pilot use of fixable surgical instruments
This study reports the development of instruments to substitute traction sutures during strabismus surgery and to act in place of surgical assistance. Three types of instruments were developed: (1) fixable multi-functional forceps; (2) fixable muscle hook; and (3) fixable retractor....The blue-light hazard – is it true?
Simerdip Kaur takes a look at the latest ophthalmology-related news stories and asks which are based on facts and which are ‘fake news’. Headline: The blue-light hazard – is it true? Blue light is part of the visible optical spectrum...
Long-term outcomes of recess / resect for sensory XT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate relationships between initial and long-term outcome of unilateral recess / resect surgery in adult sensory exotropia, factors associated with long-term outcome, exotropia drift and time to failure follow-up surgery. This was a...
