treatment of a and v pattern strabismus by slanting muscle insertions in farabi eye hospital
purpose : to evaluate outcome of surgically slanting extraocular muscle insertions in a and v-pattern strabismus methods : in this prospective non-randomized interventional case series, we created a slanting surgical reinsertion line with a 3- 4 mm difference between upper and lower corners of the muscles in 16 patients with a or v strabismus (v-exotropia in 10 patients, a-exotropia in 1 patien...
متن کاملIncomitant strabismus: does extraocular muscle form denote function?
The paradigm that an "underacting" extraocular muscle is always atrophic or hypoplastic and that an overacting extraocular muscle should always be enlarged leads to inconsistencies with clinical observations. These include findings of "overacting" inferior oblique muscles, superior rectus muscle overaction or contracture syndrome, and normal extraocular muscle diameters in patients with apparen...
متن کاملVoluntary unilateral convergent strabismus of either eye.
Case Report A male Hindu doctor aged 28 years reported on October 10, 1962, with the complaint of difficulty in reading (the letters appearing mixed together after reading for some time) for the past 8 years. He had had many pairs of spectacles, all for compound hypermetropia, without relief of symptoms. About 6 years ago, he had been advised to do convergence exercises, first looking at a dist...
متن کاملPerception via the deviated eye in strabismus.
Misalignment of the eyes can lead to double vision and visual confusion. However, these sensations are rare when strabismus is acquired early in life, because the extra image is suppressed. To explore the mechanism of perceptual suppression in strabismus, the visual fields were mapped binocularly in 14 human subjects with exotropia. Subjects wore red/blue filter glasses to permit dichoptic stim...
متن کاملStrabismus requires Flamingo and Prickle function to regulate tissue polarity in the Drosophila eye.
Tissue polarity in Drosophila is regulated by a number of genes that are thought to function in a complex, many of which interact genetically and/or physically, co-localize, and require other tissue polarity proteins for their localization. We report the enhancement of the strabismus tissue polarity phenotype by mutations in two other tissue polarity genes, flamingo and prickle. Flamingo is aut...
