Kabuki syndrome is characterized by long palpebral fissures, large ears, a depressed nasal tip, and skeletal anomalies associated with postnatal dwarfism and mental retardation. There have been few prior detailed descriptions of strabismus or stereopsis in these patients. We report a patient with Kabuki syndrome who showed small-angle strabismus and poor stereopsis. This case illustrates the ne...

In a quantitative genetic investigation of seven clinical tests, five pairs were significantly correlated: (1) cover test measures and corneal power, (2) corneal power and divergence recovery points, (3) convergence and divergence recovery points, (4) divergence break and recovery points, and (5) convergence break and recovery points. Common genes may account entirely for the gene influence on ...

Spectacle correction of unusually hypermetropic refractions from age 1 year did not reduce the incidence of squint or amblyopia, nor did it lead to a reduction in the severity of residual amblyopia after subsequent occlusion.

purpose: oculocardiac reflex (ocr) is a frequent event during strabismus surgery. the aim of this study is to compare the preventive effect of intravenous lidocaine and hyoscine on ocr.methods: this prospective, randomized clinical trial was performed on 75 patients (5-63 years old) underwent strabismus surgery. patients divided randomly into three groups. intravenous hyoscine (0.2 mg/kg), lido...

Gene products provided by the mother to the embryo determine the body axes in most animals. A recent study in zebrafish proposes that the TGFss signal Squint is one such factor.

In this paper, methods to separate the ionospheric and the scattering contributions on SAR data are proposed, and the dynamic components of the ionosphere and the lithosphere are quantitatively retrieved. These methods exploit changes of squint and time in the azimuth subbands.
