Using a fenestration technique for partially accommodative esotropia
3 October 2022

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors evaluate a fenestration technique which is described as a modified sutureless hang-back recession, for cases of partially accommodative esotropia, in a prospective non-controlled cohort. Children under 10-years-old with full accommodative correction and a partially accommodative esotropia between 10...
Long-term improvement of stereopsis in intermittent refractive esotropia

|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
This was a retrospective study to review the records of patients with refractive accommodative esotropia (RAET) to determine long-term stereoacuity (SA) improvement in those that showed initial poor or no stereopsis. The study included 79 patients; 54% male and mean...
Bilateral versus unilateral recession outcomes for intermittent exotropia

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The aim of this study was to compare surgical motor and sensory outcomes of unilateral versus bilateral lateral rectus recessions in children with small angle intermittent exotropia. This was a retrospective study of 55 patients; 28 bilateral and 27 unilateral...

non-human primate, strabismus, visual tracking eye movements
The current study aimed to quantify and compare the visual tracking responses of two sensory induced strabismic juvenile monkeys during monocular smooth pursuit, ocular following response and optokinetic nystagmus (OKN). Monkey 1 had esotropia and monkey 2 had exotropia. Both...
Outcomes of paediatric cataract

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors aimed to compare the visual outcomes of primary and secondary IOL implantation and to identify the risk factors for the development of strabismus in patients with paediatric cataract. The study included 220 eyes of 148 patients: 76 unilateral...

Detection rate, optic nerve disease, relative afferent pupillary defect, standard values
The authors have previously reported on use of the RAPDx device for evaluating relative afferent pupillary defects (RAPD). RAPDx objectively determines the magnitude of RAPD by presenting light stimuli alternately to pairs of eyes with laterality. The parameters of amplitude...
Effective contrast ratio as a measure of binocular visual perception

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors used a binocular phase combination paradigm to quantitatively evaluate and compare the binocular visual perception of normal individuals and patients with different types of strabismus to understand the binocular visual perception of patients with strabismus and evaluate whether...

Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4) binds both CD80 and Cd86 and inhibits T lymphocyte activation via CD28. Il-6 is a pleiotropic cytokine that has been associated with many autoimmune conditions including uveitis. Blockade of these molecules by either CTLA4-Ig, a...

inter-rater agreement, intrarater agreement, observed agreement, ocular motor score
Traditionally orthoptists are specialised in assessing ocular motor disorders. This article introduces the ocular motor score as a new clinical tool for screening and follow-up for children and young adults. The protocol consists of 15 tests such as stereoacuity, strabismus,...
Early postoperative angle for prediction of surgical success for exotropia
3 April 2024
| Fiona Rowe (Prof)
|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
In this study, the authors assessed the relationship between the initial postoperative deviation and surgical outcomes in adult exotropia undergoing unilateral lateral rectus recession with medial rectus resection. The study included 93 patients (51 female); 26 with residual exo, 53...
Ametropic amblyopia and stereopsis
1 February 2015
| Fiona Rowe (Prof)
|
Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
This study aimed to evaluate the correlations between ametropic amblyopia (hypermetropic – 110, myopic – 30, and astigmatic – 65) and stereopsis in 205 children – mean age of 5.2 years ±1.8. For near stereopsis, significant results were found for...
