Can ophthalmologists repair defects of visual cortex circuitry in infants who have esotropia? The answer t question encompasses both sensory and motor behaviors because the clinical hallmarks of the disorde stereoblindness and absence of motor fusion, which manifests as convergently deviated eyes. Functional rec of sensory and motor fusion in infantile esotropia was a consuming interest, if not...

Acquired esotropia with high myopia may be associated with superotemporal eyeball prolapse from the muscle cone and the subsequent shift of extraocular muscles limits the success of the traditional recession-resection surgery. In this study, we report two patients diagnosed with myopic strabismus fixus with esodeviation >90 prism diopter. Marked axial elongation of globes was present in both th...

Heritability estimates for corneal power were found to be high and similar for two populations which differed in their incidence of esotropia. This similarity suggest (1) that genetic differences for corneal power do not contribute to the difference in heritability for spherical refractive error reported for these populations and (2) that this character is not a critical variable contributing t...

purpose: to present two cases of axial high myopia with esotropia (heavy eye syndrome) and the results of its surgical management. case report: two female subjects (15 and 17 years old) were referred to poostchi eye clinic, shiraz, iran with axial high myopia and esotropia. eye examination revealed more than 50 prism diopter (pd) esotropia and more than 10 pd hypotropia in primary position as w...

purpose: to report a case of bilateral kertatoconus who presented with acute comitant esotropia after penetrating keratoplasty in the fellow eye. patient and findings: a 17-year-old male with keratoconus underwent penetrating keratoplasty in his right eye. he experienced diplopia after removal of the patch from the operated eye 12 hour postoperatively due to esotropia in his left (unoperated) e...

CLINICAL CASE A 38-year old female with diplopia and esotropia, with limitation of ocular abduction in both eyes, with full abduction after doll's head rotation also being observed. She was diagnosed with spasm of the near reflex. Treatment with injections of botulinum toxin in both medial rectus has temporally resolved the convergence spasm. DISCUSSION Near reflex spasm is characterized as m...
