Optical Management Using Monovision and Yoked Prism for Acquired Strabismus and Nystagmus Secondary to a Neurodegenerative Disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acquired involuntary eye movement disorders, including noncomitant strabismus, nystagmus, and saccadic dyskinesia, are common ocular manifestations of many neurodegenerative diseases. These patients may experience visual symptoms, such as blurred vision, diplopia, and oscillopsia, which can significantly impact their use of vision. The goal of the management for these patients is to reduce the visual symptoms using any combination of available management strategies. This case report discusses the effective optical management using the combination of spectacle monovision correction and yoked prism to improve visual symptoms in a patient with olivopontocerebellar atrophy.

Potential Concerns and Contraindications for IOL Monovision
Pseudophakic or intraocular implant (IOL) monovision has been widely used in surgical cataract practice for more than 3 decades. More and more premium IOLs compete presbyopia management, but IOL monovision still remains the most commonly used modality with good spectacle independence and high patient satisfaction. Little attention, however, has been paid to its contraindications and concerns in...
متن کاملEarly versus delayed repair of infantile strabismus in macaque monkeys: I. ocular motor effects.
INTRODUCTION The appropriate age for surgical correction of esotropic strabismus in human infants is controversial; some clinicians advocate surgery before age 6 months, and others recommend observation and surgery at older ages. Infantile (congenital) esotropia in humans and monkeys is known to be accompanied by a constellation of eye movement abnormalities caused by maldevelopment of cerebral...
متن کاملDuration of binocular decorrelation predicts the severity of latent (fusion maldevelopment) nystagmus in strabismic macaque monkeys.
PURPOSE Infantile esotropia is linked strongly to latent fixation nystagmus (LN) in human infants, but many features of this comorbidity are unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine how the duration of early-onset strabismus (or timeliness of repair) affects the prevalence of LN in a primate model. METHODS Optical strabismus was created in infant macaques by fitting them with prism...
متن کاملInnervated Myotendinous Cylinders Alterations in Human Extraocular Muscles in Patients With Strabismus
PURPOSE To analyze innervated myotendinous cylinders (IMCs) in the extraocular muscles (EOMs) of normal subjects and strabismic patients. METHODS The rectus muscles of 37 subjects were analyzed. Distal myotendinous specimens were obtained from 3 normal subjects, 20 patients with acquired strabismus, 11 with infantile strabismus, and from 3 with congenital nystagmus, and were studied by using ...
متن کاملEarly versus delayed repair of infantile strabismus in macaque monkeys: II. Effects on motion visually evoked responses.
PURPOSE Infantile strabismus in humans and the monkey is associated with maldevelopment of visual motion responsiveness, one manifestation of which is directionally asymmetric motion visual evoked potentials (motion VEPs). Early repair of strabismus in infant monkeys has been shown to restore normal development of motion responsiveness for pursuit and optokinetic eye movements (optokinetic nyst...
