Early diagnosis and management of strabismus is needed to avoid complications such as amblyopia. In this retrospective cohort study we reviewed the profile and surgical outcome of vertical strabismus patients attending a clinic in Yazd city in the Islamic Republic of Iran. From the medical files of 265 patients, 19.2% were found to have pure vertical deviation and 80.8% had combined horizontal ...

It is commonly accepted that albino patients with strabismus rarely achieve binocularity and depth perception after strabismus surgery. The presence of retino-geniculo-cortical misrouting, a hallmark of the visual system in albinism, does not necessarily cause total loss of binocular vision, however, not even in albino patients with strabismus. Recently some degrees of stereopsis were reported ...

ABSTRAK
 Strabismus merupakan kondisi dimana terdapat ketidaksejajaran antar kedua mata. Salah satu mata dapat terlihat lurus menuju suatu objek, sedangkan yang lain mengarah ke dalam, luar, atas, ataupun bawah. Kondisi ini mempengaruhi kualitas hidup pasien secara negatif. Namun, hingga saat ini, penelitian terkait strabismus maupun di Indonesia, khususnya Bali masih sangat jarang dilakuk...

Strabismus, more commonly known across-eyed or wall-eyed, is a vision condition in which a person cannot align both eyes simultaneously under normal conditions. One or both of the eyes may turn in, out, up or down. An eye turn may be constant (when the eye turns all of the time) or intermittent (turning only some of the time). Strabismus typically involves a lack of coordination between the ext...

PURPOSE To investigate the rate of spontaneous resolution of strabismus in patients with cortical visual impairment (CVI) at a single center over a 10-year period and to evaluate the success rate of strabismus surgery. METHODS The medical records of patients with CVI and strabismus seen between October 2003 and October 2013 were reviewed retrospectively. Patients were classified into 4 outcom...

This paper describes implemented methods for characterizing a 5-bit programmable dispersion matrix (PDM) that is built to control a two-channel Receive beamformer in the 1550 nm region. The architecture of the PDM, is based on an array of 5 delay lines each having two spliced fiber Bragg gratings. Phase measurements for 32 possible delay configurations of the PMD are presented. Beam-patterns of...

Strabismus is a condition in which the two eyes are not parallel but one is deviated with respect to the other, horizontally and/or vertically. The cause of childhood strabismus is generally unknown, although weakness of one or several of the eye muscles may be present as will be shown in the case presentation below. The most common type of strabismus, without any obvious dysfunction of the eye...

The causes of manifest (strabismus) and latent (phoria) misalignment of the visual axes are incompletely understood. We calculated genetic and environmental contributions to strabismus based upon a critical review and quantitative meta-analysis of previous strabismus twin studies (n=3418 twin pairs) and calculated contributions to phoria based upon a new twin study (n=307 twin pairs). Our resul...

To the Editors: Regarding our recent article “Myectomy of the Extraocular Muscles Without Reattachment as a Surgical Treatment for Horizontal Nystagmus,”1 the authors would like to make the following amendments to the section “Technique in Detail” to assist those intending to perform and/or investigate this operation with the full benefit of our latest observations. First, the superior and infe...
