Early surgery for infantile esotropia.
AIM To investigate the postoperative eye alignment and binocular visual function after early surgery for infantile esotropia. METHODS Both the postoperative eye position and stereopsis were reviewed using the Titmus stereo test in nine patients who received uniocular medial rectus recession and lateral rectus resection under general anaesthesia before 8 months of age and were followed up for ...
متن کاملImprovement in motor development following surgery for infantile esotropia.
PURPOSE Infantile esotropia is associated with abnormal visual development and thus may delay the achievement of developmental milestones. Although early surgery can improve visual function, less is known about its effect on motor development. Here we address whether early surgery can improve motor development. METHODS Recently, our lab devised the Infant Developmental Skills Survey, a 25-ite...
متن کاملTiming of surgery for infantile esotropia: sensory and motor outcomes.
Infantile esotropia is a common ophthalmic disorder in childhood. It is often accompanied by profound maldevelopment of stereopsis, motion processing, and eye movements, despite successful surgical realignment of the eyes. The proper timing of surgery has been debated for decades. There is growing evidence from clinical and animal studies that surgery during the early critical periods enhances ...
متن کاملThree horizontal muscle surgery for large-angle infantile or presumed infantile esotropia: long-term motor outcomes.
IMPORTANCE Bilateral medial rectus muscle recession and one lateral rectus muscle resection surgery for the correction of large-angle infantile esotropia may be associated with a favorable long-term motor outcome. A consecutive exotropic drift was encountered more commonly than a recurrent esotropic drift in the long run, especially in the smaller (50-69 prism diopters [Δ]) range of preoperativ...
متن کاملInfantile esotropia: preferred postoperative alignment.
Wagner: This is a case of infantile esotropia. Six weeks following a 6-mm recession of the right and left medial rectus muscles in a 7-month-old infant with typical infantile esotropia findings and no vertical deviation at all, you find a residual esotropia of 12 prism diopters. Dr. Wang, what is your management at this time? Wang: Is the 12 diopters distance, near, or both? Wagner: We’ll say i...
