Strabismus and binocular summation
The authors conducted a pilot study to investigate the effect of visual noise or background complexity on binocular summation in patients with strabismus. A target embedded in pixel noise was used. The study involved performance of a task detecting a...
Comparison of bupivacaine injection vs. mini-tenotomy for small angle deviations
Bupivacaine hydrochloride is an aminoacyltype local anaesthetic. Injection into extraocular muscles elicits a myotoxic response destroying striated muscle fibres but sparing satellite cells, nerves and vessels. Preserved satellite cells proliferate to form new muscle fibres, causing muscle hypertrophy and greater...
Improvements in balance and postural control after strabismus surgery
The authors sought to investigate the effect of surgical correction of strabismus on dynamic balance and postural stability. They recruited 27 children (15 female, 12 male) of which 17 were esotropia and 10 exotropia (including eight intermittent types), aged 7–12...
OCTA to measure surgical haemodynamic changes
This study used the optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) technique to evaluate possible haemodynamic changes after horizontal rectus muscle surgery in 32 eyes of 16 patients; nine male, seven female. Recession / resection surgery was undertaken for two horizontal rectus...

An all day event simplifying strabismus, with practical teaching sessions ("you too can do a cover test"), common clinical and exam scenarios, top tips from expert clinicians and educators in the field. Aimed at trainees, SAS doctors and the general...
Measuring IPD with PlusoptiX
The authors evaluated the accuracy of the PlusoptiX A04 for measuring pupillary distance as compared to measurements taken by a trained optician. This retrospective review included 256 children who had undilated PA04 screening and had pupil distance measurement done by...
Changing surgery trends from 2009–2020
This paper reports a review of the number and type of surgeries over one decade in a Portuguese hospital. This was a retrospective review of 2050 surgeries. About 70% were strabismus surgery and the remainder included anterior segment and retinopathy...
GA position of eyes
The authors assessed eye position based on the corneal reflex position (Hirschberg test) using a standardised measurement on pictures taken at the preoperative evaluation and under general anaesthesia (GA) in 41 patients. The mean ocular deviation taken at the preoperative...
High prevalence of strabismus and variable surgical success in children with developmental delay
On the basis of lack of consensus for the treatment of strabismus in children with developmental delay, the authors reviewed the literature to provide information on the topic and present results from their clinical experience. From the review, they include...
Early structural and functional retinal changes in intermittent exotropia
This study aimed to evaluate and compare spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD OCT) and electrophysiological measures in patients with intermittent exotropia and healthy controls, to outline changes in retinal and optic nerve structure and function. This was a cross-sectional...
