Cyclo spray vs. drops
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether cyclo spray is better tolerated than cyclo drops and to assess the adequacy of cycloplegia achieved by spray for objective refraction. Cyclo drops were given to 72 children and cyclo spray...
Risk factors for further surgery in consecutive ET
The preoperative and postoperative factors around first surgery for exotropia were investigated for predicting second surgery for consecutive esotropia. Fifty-two patients with consecutive esotropia after exotropia surgery were reviewed: 17 required surgery for the esotropia and 35 did not. There...
Strabismus in high myopia
The authors report the occurrence of exotropia-hypotropia complex in 15 cases of high myopia. The mean age at presentation was 23.5 years (10-35 years). Only two patients had high bilateral myopia. The mean axial length of the deviating eye was...
Amblyopia OCT results
The authors compared the macular and peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thicknesses of amblyopic and fellow eyes using Stratus optical coherence tomography (OCT) to reveal any differences. They sought to determine the anatomical differences between these subtypes of strabismic...
Neuroanatomical structures and eye movements
The aim of this study was to review and critically discuss the role of ocular proprioception in oculomotor control and development of eye motility disorders. The authors considered proprioception, structure and proprioceptors of eye muscles, singly and multiply innervated muscle...
Horizontal angles in Brown’s syndrome
The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of horizontal strabismus needing surgical management in Brown’s syndrome. This was a retrospective review of 19 eyes (eight right and 11 left) of 16 patients (seven male and nine female)....
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...
Assessing and treating achromatopsia
This literature review considers clinical characteristics (pendular nystagmus, poor visual acuity, lack of colour vision and marked photophobia), genetics (autosomal recessive disease, with CNGA3, CNGB3, GNAT2, PDE6C, PDE6H and ATF6 gene mutations), diagnostic options (OCT and fundus auto fluorescence), and...
Screening with PlusoptiX
This study compared the PlusoptiX A12 to a comprehensive ophthalmic investigation. This was a three-month study of 219 (438 eyes) subjects with a mean age of 72 months. The A12 referred 101 of 219 (46%) patients for potential amblyopia. Ophthalmic...
D-EYE device versus direct ophthalmoscope
D-EYE digital ophthalmoscope is a fundus camera device that attaches to a smartphone and is used in conjunction with a HIPAA-compliant app. The authors conducted a study in which 25 medical students examined the fundi of two undilated patients with...
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...
