Using bupivacaine to the medical rectus in addition to lateral rectus recession for convergence insufficiency type intermittent exotropia

This is a retrospective study of 60 paediatric optic pathway glioma (OPG) patients (NF1 or sporadic) presenting to Great Ormond Street between 2003-2017. Median follow-up was 82 months. Analysis was divided into best and worst eye vision representing level quality...

Ocular motility parameters in phakic and pseudophakic older people

The aim of this study was to compare the extent of phoria, strabismus and convergence of pseudophakic vs phakic people in an elderly population. The study was part of the Tehran Geriatric Eye Study (TGES). Of 3791 invitees, 3310 participated...

Importance of vision input to postural stability

This literature review was undertaken to overview postural stability in strabismus and amblyopia. Postural stability is a complex skill that coordinates dynamic sensory mechanisms to facilitate sustained balance. The review discusses critical roles of vision in postural stability, e.g. postural...

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...

New grading description for ROP retinal changes for those meeting termination of vision screening guidelines

This study reports and characterises residual retinal changes seen in eyes that meet criteria for termination of acute retinal screening exams. A novel grading system was used in which retinal exams were graded A to E. ‘A’ was defined as...

Infantile nystagmus syndrome and use of genetic testing

This review aimed to assess the clinical utility of genetic testing for individuals with infantile nystagmus syndrome. The authors define infantile nystagmus syndrome as having an onset before six months of age, binocular and conjugate. The literature search was conducted...

Treatment of vertical diplopia in the reading position

This paper describes the use of slab-off prisms for the treatment of vertical diplopia in the reading position. The following data were collected: main symptom complaint, visual acuity, refractive error, binocular vision including sensory fusion and stereoacuity, alternating cover test...

BT vs primary surgery for infantile esotropia

In this study, the success rate of treatment for infantile esotropia (IET) patients who had surgery because of under correction after botulinum toxin (BT) is compared to those having primary surgery. The study included 52 patients (27 male) with mean...

Long-term motor and sensory outcomes after surgery for high AC/A ratio esotropia

This study reports the long-term ocular alignment and sensory outcomes after medial rectus recession for high accommodative convergence to accommodation (AC/A) ratio esotropia with a minimum postoperative follow-up of five years. The study included 34 patients (16 male); 31 had...

Systematic review of management options for intermittent exotropia

The authors conduct a robust systematic review of the literature to report evidence on non-surgical and surgical treatment options for intermittent exotropia – divergence excess and basic intermittent exotropia types. Discussion centres on (1) optical correction of refractive error with...

Causes of abnormal head postures – literature review

Yadegari reports a narrative literature review for abnormal head postures (AHPs) with discussion on different causes. This review summarises the control of a normal head posture before discussing differences of ocular vs non-ocular AHPs. Ocular AHPs may be adopted to...

The use of virtual reality in paediatric ophthalmology

The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of virtual reality (VR) in the broader field of paediatric ophthalmology with review of examination, screening, diagnosis, prevention and treatment. This review also explores the potential of eye tracking used...
