Management of retinal diseases: highlights from the AAO 2019 Retina Subspecialty Day Meeting
The author highlights current debate, opinion and late breaking developments in the management of retinal diseases. The American Academy of Ophthalmology’s 2019 Retina Subspecialty Day Meeting was held on 11-12 October, 2019 in San Francisco, USA. Established and emerging innovative...
Association of asthenopia and heterophoria
Heterophoria varies over time and asthenopic symptoms may be greater when the heterophoria is larger. Thus a close intra-individual correlation may exist between heterophoria and discomfort during reading. The authors investigated the variability of both parameters in 20 individuals who...The management of chronic central serous chorioretinopathy
Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) is a common retinal disease characterised by one or more serous neurosensory detachments. Patients present with acute onset blurring of vision, metamorphopsia and / or central scotomas. The condition is six times more common in men...Psychiatric Consequences of Ophthalmic Disease
In part two of this series on ophthalmology and psychiatry, the authors will cover the possible psychiatric consequences of ophthalmic disease. The following conditions will be discussed: a. Black patch psychosis b. Psychological state in blindness c. Phobias in the...Ocular electrophysiology
A 34-year-old woman, who is a CEO in a multinational firm, has been losing vision over the last 12 months. She has seen her opticians, who initially tried different glasses but could not improve things. Clinical examination is unremarkable. How...
Fusion vergence measures
The purpose of this study was to compare fusional vergence measurements between orthophoria, esophoria and exophoria and determine the strength of correlation between fusional vergence and angle of deviation. This was a cross-section study of 530 children aged six to...
Iranian strabismus prevalence
This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of heterotropia and heterophoria in Iran. This was a cross-section study undertaken in 2013 with the target population of grade 1 (seven-year-old) children. Seven cities across different geographical locations were included with multistage...
Accommodation in children
The purpose of this pilot study was to establish typical accommodative responses at 1/3m in children to targets of varying complexity and visual / cognitive demand. This was a study of 18 children aged six to seven years and six...
AC/A correlates
Three groups of subjects were included in this study. Group 1 had typically developing children from five to nine years with heterophoria less than 6PD. Group 2 had 19 children aged five to nine years with intermittent distance exotropia. Group...
AC/A non-linearity
This study investigated whether or not the response accommodative convergence to accommodation (AC/A) ratio in 30 visually normal subjects is linear with lens presentation order counterbalanced. Accommodative response was measured using the Shin Nippon SRW 500 infrared autorefractor. Accommodation was...
Fusional vergence measurement
This paper reports a systematic review to address two objectives: 1, to compare the normative values of tests measuring fusional vergence; 2, to investigate sources of heterogeneity of prism accuracy. The review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines with a...
