A study of refractive outcomes following cataract surgery was carried out with the aim of comparing the postoperative refractive outcomes against Royal College of Ophthalmologists standards and to determine the extent of association between accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power...
Choroidal thickness in strabismus and amblyopia
The authors examined the effect of exotropia, esotropia, anisometropic amblyopia and hypermetropia on choroidal thickness in a prospective cross section study. The study included 100 patients and 20 controls with a mean age of 8.5±2.9 years; 61 female and 59...Third nerve palsy following cataract surgery with sub-Tenon’s anaesthesia

One muscle surgery
This is a review of current literature on unilateral strabismus surgery for small to moderate angle esotropia, exotropia, residual and consecutive strabismus and convergence or divergence insufficiency. The review considers recession surgery for eso / exotropia of angles up to...Unravelling ocular motility
Ocular motility can often be a slightly abstract concept during the earlier years of ophthalmology training. A large variance on what embodies normality; mythical concepts like fusion and binocular vision, examination techniques that can be fiddly, and complex neuroanatomy all...
Postop esotropia re-drift
The authors aimed to investigate the rate and onset of development of re-drift after infantile esotropia surgery and identify factors associated with this. This was a retrospective study of 112 patients with a mean postoperative follow-up of 9.5 years. Consecutive...
Outcome of secondary intraocular lens implantation-conventional 23- vs. modified 27-gauge vitrectomy port anchor fixation
This retrospective case study series evaluated the outcome of a secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation technique of a Carlevale IOL (Soleko IOL Division, Italy) with either a conventional 23- or a modified 27-gauge (-g) vitrectomy port used as anchor fixation....What not to miss in neuro-ophthalmology Part 2
As mentioned previously there are several conditions in neuro-ophthalmology that should not be missed by the general ophthalmologist as well as ophthalmology trainees. We discussed in the first part some of these conditions including third cranial nerve palsies, giant cell...
