Testing of binocular contrast sensitivity as an objective measure of severity in intermittent exotropia
The purpose of this study was to compare the binocular contrast sensitivity ratio (measured with the Vision CSV-100 vector chart) between 40 intermittent exotropia patients and 40 normal controls. The authors also evaluated the effect of intermittent exotropia compensation status...
New management algorithm for acute post cataract endophthalmitis
In this study, the authors aimed to establish an objective algorithm for recommending urgent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) to help improve visual outcomes in the current era of clear corneal-incision phacoemulsification and small gauge PPV. This study examined 150 cases...
Does methanol poisoning require ophthalmic investigation?
The authors report a case series of 21 patients (41 eyes) diagnosed with acute methanol poisoning following an outbreak in Tunisia in 2020. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmological examination including visual fields, colour vision test and optical coherence tomography...
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...
Psychological approach to treatment of accommodative / convergence anomalies
A case series is presented of affected children, young people and young adults with discussion of a psychological approach to aiding their accommodative problems. The psychological approach involved an information sheet provided at the end of assessment which included explanations...
Combined in-office and home-based eccentric viewing training for central vision loss
This retrospective study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of an eccentric viewing training (EVT) programme delivered in a real-world setting (home exercises) by combining a traditional EVT technique with biofeedback training using microperimetry. The authors investigated potential relationships between visual...
Top cited 100 publications in paediatric ophthalmology
The author identified the top 100 cited publications in paediatric ophthalmology in an effort to identify which topics are most strongly represented and potential areas where further research is needed. An ISI Web of Science database search was conducted in...
Neurogenic palsy due to COVID-19
The authors aimed to identify cases of neurogenic palsy in the presence of Covid-19 and document the patient characteristics, type of palsy and possible aetiologies. Case reports and case series were included in the search. Twenty-three articles were included with...
Burden of caregiving for children with eye diseases
This review was conducted to examine the existent literature and characterise the psychological impact of caregiving for children with various eye diseases. The factors associated with the burden of caregiving were discussed in the context of each eye disease identified....
Contrast sensitivity comparisons for Pelli Robson, Hiding Heidi and Double Happy tests
The authors aimed to compare contrast thresholds and measure agreement across current paediatric assessment of contrast sensitivity with Hiding Heidi and Double Happy contrast sensitivity tests vs. the gold-standard Pelli Robson chart. Reduced contrast levels were similar under different light...
Characteristics of neuro-ophthalmic visual disturbances post-cataract surgery
The authors present a retrospective case review of adult patients seen by neuro-ophthalmology over a nine-year period. The aim of the study was to identify the cause of neuro-ophthalmic referrals within six months of cataract surgery. Individuals already known to...
