Anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle (ATIO) and myectomy of the inferior oblique muscle (MIO) are surgical methods for treating dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) and are also used in patients with coexisting inferior oblique muscle overaction (IOOA). In order to compare the outcomes of these methods, a study of ATIO and MIO was carried out on patients with DVD of at least 5 ...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Coal exploitation technology could have affected the deformation of ground under a housing estate in the Upper Silesia agglomeration. The 10-storey apartment building began to deviate from the vertical. These factors affected the housing conditions of inhabitants in the block of flats. From 1991-2001, coal-mine surveyors monitored the vertical deviation. The inhabita...

the linguistic is studying the language different levels, the language is main topic  that the linguistic sisstu dying it. the linguistics has several branches,the stylistics is one of its branches that survey literary works. and stylistic phenomenon is one of the important phenomen as at linguistic studies and it study poetic language because it’s different from the common language. since the ...

The distribution of empirical corresponding points in the two retinas has been well studied along the horizontal and the vertical meridians, but not in other parts of the visual field. Using an apparent-motion paradigm, we measured the positions of those points across the central portion of the visual field. We found that the Hering-Hillebrand deviation (a deviation from the Vieth-Müller circle...

PURPOSE To compare the sensitivity of hyperacuity of patients with cyclovertical deviation with that of subjects with normal vision. METHODS The sensitivity of hyperacuity was measured in 42 volunteers with normal vision and in 12 patients with cyclovertical deviation, using a newly developed computerized device that randomly presents two opposing targets at vertical or at horizontal directio...

We examined 14 patients with acute anteromedial pontomesencephalic infarctions for signs of vestibular and ocular motor dysfunction. In all cases, an isolated ipsilateral deviation of the subjective visual vertical (mean: 4.1, range: 2.7- 6.6) was found without any further signs of vestibular or eye movement disorders like ocular torsion or skew deviation. Distinct lesions in thin-slice brainst...

Purpose: To study the prevalence, characteristics, indications for and results of strabismus treatment secondary to congenital cataracts. Materials and methods: This was a retrospective study of 21 cases from 29 with congenital cataracts with strabismus (unilateral in 11 and bilateral in 10 cases). In 20 patients surgery on the cataracts was performed, with an intraocular lens inserted in 15 pa...

OBJECTIVE To determine if central corneal thickness (CCT) is related to the level of glaucoma severity at the initial examination. METHODS The initial visit to a glaucoma specialist by consecutive patients with primary open-angle glaucoma from 1997 to 2002 was reviewed retrospectively. Each patient's age, sex, race, family history of glaucoma, number of glaucoma medications, visual acuity, sp...

Methods The full torso ST of 90 AIS patients with different curve types were retrieved from our previous study [2]. The mean Cobb angle was 32.5° (range: 8°-69°). The best plane of symmetry that divides the torso into left and right parts was calculated. Deviations between the left and right parts were measured and displayed as deviation colour maps (DCMs). To propose a surface clarification, t...
