Intermittent exotropia with a positive Bielchowsky head-tilt test
This is a retrospective study from Korea, of 118 patients’ charts with intermittent exotropia (IXT) and divided into two groups; 50 patients showed positive Bielchowsky head tilt test (BHTT) and 68 with negative BHTT. Significant differences (p<0.05) in the parameters...
Lost muscle surgery
The authors present the results of transposition surgery without concomitant lateral rectus weakening in a retrospective review of five cases. Surgery was for large exotropia and marked limitation of adduction after surgical loss of the medial rectus muscle. Mean age...

Surgery to reduce chin-up abnormal head posture with nystagmus
The authors report the surgical results of six patients with chin up abnormal head posture (AHP) in infantile nystagmus syndrome (INS) where maximal inferior rectus weakening (recession) was undertaken along with superior rectus resection in four of the cases. This...
Surgical management and review of congenital inferior rectus dysgenesis
Three cases are presented of congenital inferior rectus (IR) dysgenesis causing hypertropia. Case 1 was a two-year-old female with intermittent vertical strabismus of 20PD and -2 limitation on depression, worse in abduction. MRI imaging showed a hypoplastic IR. Following surgery,...Boosting key protein in eye cells could prevent age-related vision loss, international team finds
Increasing the levels of a key protein in the cells at the back of the eye could help protect against the leading cause of vision loss among older adults, finds a new discovery made by researchers from the UK, US, Germany and Australia.
