چکیده

Monocular and binocular grating acuities were measured using a swept spatial frequency visual evoked potential (VEP) technique in a group of fifteen infants with esotropia and alternating fixation. Both monocular and binocular acuity measures fell significantly below the mean for age-matched normals. Infants with esotropia and alternating fixation did not have significant interocular acuity differences.

Stereoacuity Outcomes Following Treatment of Infantile and Accommodative Esotropia

Purpose—To review what is known about the normal maturation of stereoacuity, the stereoacuity deficits associated with infantile and accommodative esotropia, the rationale for making improved stereoacuity a goal of treatment, and strategies for improving stereoacuity outcomes. Methods—Studies of stereoacuity maturation during normal development, studies of stereoacuity outcomes following treatm...

Hyperacuity deficits in anisometropic and strabismic amblyopes with known ages of onset

In order to evaluate the influence of etiology of amblyopia and of age at onset of amblyopia on the resulting constellation of spatial vision deficits, resolution/vernier and recognition/resolution acuity ratios were measured in groups of children with either strabismic amblyopia or anisometropic amblyopia with known ages of onset. Strabismic amblyopia with infantile onset (<9 months) and strab...

Anomalies of motion perception in infantile esotropia.

PURPOSE To quantify motion sensitivity in patients with infantile esotropia who, as a subgroup, have been previously reported to have abnormal oculomotor control. In addition, to probe abnormal binocular development as a factor underlying abnormal motion perception in infantile esotropia (IE), motion sensitivity was compared among participants with and without stereopsis. METHODS Monocular se...

Comitant horizontal strabismus: an Asian perspective.

AIM Recent studies suggest that Asian strabismus patterns are different from those in the West. This study aims to determine the profile of children with comitant horizontal strabismus in Singapore. METHOD 682 children aged <or=16 years presenting with strabismus for the first time between 2000 and 2002 were included in this study. The type and size of the squint, visual acuity, refractive er...

Longitudinal study of acuity and stereopsis in infants with or at-risk for esotropia.

Grating acuity and stereopsis were measured longitudinally in five groups of infants: infantile esotropes, moderate hyperopes, high hyperopes, infants with a family history of strabismus or amblyopia and controls. Grating acuity was measured with a forced-choice preferential looking procedure. Stereopsis was assessed with a random-element stereogram. Testing was conducted when subjects were 3, ...
