Increased saccadic latencies were measured in the amblyopic eyes of subjects having amblyopia without strabismus, constant strabismus amblyopia, and intermittent strabismus. The subjects tracked a small, bright spot of light moving with random, horizontal step displacements of 0.25 to 8.5 degrees over the central retina. Normal saccadic latencies were generally found during monocular tracking w...

This case report describes a 17-year-old boy with sensory strabismus due to keratoconus and an ipsilateral nodular lesion of the bulbar conjunctiva. The aligned eye was the right eye and keratoconus in this eye was of late onset. Vision in the left eye was poor and keratoconus was advanced in this eye. Due to the longstanding nature of the keratoconus and its occurrence in a developmentally sen...

Surgery to align the two eyes is commonly used in treating strabismus. However, the role of strabismic surgery on patients' binocular visual processing is not yet fully understood. In this study, we asked two questions: (1) Does realigning the eyes by strabismic surgery produce an immediate benefit to patients' sensory eye balance? (2) If not, is there a subsequent period of "alignment adaptati...

Small-amplitude, low-velocity, predictable triangular tracking was tested in patients having amblyopia without strabismus, intermittent strabismus, or constant strabismus amblyopia by means of a photoelectric eye-movement recording technique. In the majority of amblyopic patients, abnormal saccadic substitution was found; that is, abnormally large saccades rather than small-amplitude smooth mov...

PURPOSE Previous studies have shown that binocular coordination during saccadic eye movement is affected in humans with large strabismus. The purpose of this study was to examine the conjugacy of saccadic eye movements in monkeys with sensory strabismus. METHODS The authors recorded binocular eye movements in four strabismic monkeys and one unaffected monkey. Strabismus was induced by first o...

PURPOSE To study the types of horizontal sensory strabismus, their causes, and treatment outcomes. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 44 patients with horizontal sensory strabismus who were treated from 2002 to 2007. Patients whose worse eye vision was inferior or equal to 0.2 were included. The deviation angle in primary position, causes, type of treatment, and pre-operative or post-operati...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the outcomes of secondary sensory strabismus surgery and to discuss the effect of visual acuity on success. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of patients with sensory strabismus who underwent recession-resection on the eye with vision loss were reviewed. Only patients with visual acuity of ≤0.2 in the operated eye were enrolled. Data including age at surgery,...

PURPOSE Monkeys reared under conditions of alternating monocular occlusion during their first few months of life show large horizontal strabismus, "A" patterns, and dissociated vertical deviation. "A" patterns manifest as an inappropriate horizontal component in the deviated eye during vertical eye movements (cross-axis movement). The objective of this study was to investigate response properti...
