RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To investigate the relationship between the details of strabismus and orbital abnormalities determined by ocular motility tests and orbital imaging examinations in 9 cases with Angelman syndrome (AS). STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective, clinical report. METHODS: The 9 AS cases (mean age at initial visit: 4.6 ± 8.0 years) were confirmed by genetic diagnosis of the chromosome 15q11-13 region. In all cases, axial imaging of the orbit in the transverse plane of the horizontal extraocular muscles was obtained. The opening angle between both lateral walls of the orbit (greater wing of sphenoid) was measured as the biorbital angle, and compared with the 95% confidence interval of the orbital angle in normal children. RESULTS: All cases had exotropia with means of the distance and near of angle 32.2 prism diopters (Δ) ± 9.7Δ and 32.8Δ ± 8.3Δ. The mean of the biorbital angle was 107.7° ± 7.6°, greater than the biorbital angle of 94.3° ± 5.1° previously reported in 129 normal children (P < 0.0001, t-test). Except for one biorbital angle of 93° in the 25-year-old patient, all the biorbital angles in the 8 children were larger than the upper 95% confidence interval in normal children. Astigmatic and hyperopic ametropic amblyopia were detected in 3 cases and 1 case, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The frequency of exotropia in AS is higher than previously reported, with our results strongly suggesting that the enlarged biorbital angle is related to the pathogenesis of exotropia in AS.

BACKGROUND: This study evaluate the efficacy of part-time patching in preventing recurrence after bilateral lateral rectus recession (BLR) in patients with intermittent exotropia (IXT). METHODS: A total of 190 children aged 3-13 years who experienced recurrence after BLR for IXT and received part-time patching were retrospectively reviewed. The patching was prescribed for 2 h per day for more than 6 months. Patients who had a recurrence of 18 PD or more underwent reoperation. Changes in exodeviation and reoperation ratio after part-time patching were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 34 patients (17.9%) received reoperation after part-time patching, and the reoperation ratio after 2 years was 20.3% as per the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Patients with a recurrence of 7 to 10 PD showed a significantly better effect compared to those with a recurrence of more than 10 PD (p < 0.001), and the reoperation ratio was also lower in the survival analysis (p = 0.004). The factor associated with reoperation in patients with part-time patching was the duration between the operation and the initiation of part-time patching (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.006, p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: Part-time patching was effective in maintaining the efficacy of surgery and delaying the need of reoperation after BLR. This effect was better in patients with a recurrence of ≤ 10 PD.

BACKGROUND: Infantile esotropia (IE) is the inward deviation of the eye. Various aspects of the clinical management of IE are unclear; mainly, the most effective type of intervention and the age at intervention. OBJECTIVES: To examine the effectiveness and optimal timing of surgical and non-surgical treatment options for IE to improve ocular alignment and achieve or allow the development of binocular single vision. SEARCH METHODS: We searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, one other database, and three trials registers (November 2021). We did not use any date or language restrictions in the electronic searches for trials. SELECTION CRITERIA: We included randomized trials and quasi-randomized trials comparing any surgical or non-surgical intervention for IE. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: We used standard Cochrane methodology and graded the certainty of the body of evidence for six outcomes using the GRADE classification. MAIN RESULTS: We included two studies with 234 children with IE. The first study enrolled 110 children (mean age 26.9 ± 14.5 months) with an onset of esotropia before six months of age, and large-angle IE defined as esotropia of ≥ 40 prism diopters. It was conducted between 2015 and 2018 in a tertiary care hospital in South Africa. It compared a maximum of three botulinum toxin injections with surgical intervention of bimedial rectus muscle recession, and children were followed for six months. There were limitations in study design and implementation; the risk of bias was high, or we had some concerns for most domains. Surgery may increase the incidence of treatment success, defined as orthophoria or residual esotropia of ≤ 10 prism diopters, compared with botulinum toxin injections, but the evidence was very uncertain (risk ratio (RR) of treatment success 1.88, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.27 to 2.77; 1 study, 101 participants; very low-certainty evidence). The results should be read with caution because 23 children with > 60 prism diopters at baseline in the surgery arm also received botulinum toxin at the time of surgery to augment the recessions. There was no evidence of an important difference between surgery and botulinum toxin injections for over-correction (> 10 prism diopters) of deviation (RR 0.29, 95% CI 0.06 to 1.37; 1 study, 101 participants; very low-certainty evidence), or additional interventions required (RR 0.66, 95% CI 0.36 to 1.19; 1 study, 101 participants; very low-certainty evidence). No major complications of surgery were observed in the surgery arm, while children experienced various complications in the botulinum toxin arm, including partial transient ptosis in 9 (16.7%) children, transient vertical deviation in 3 (5.6%) children, and consecutive exotropia in 13 (24.1%) children. No other outcome data for our prespecified outcomes were reported. The second study enrolled 124 children with onset of esotropia before one year of age in 12 university hospitals in Germany and the Netherlands. It compared bilateral recession with unilateral recession surgeries, and followed children for three months postoperatively. Very low-certainty evidence suggested that there was no evidence of an important difference between bilateral and unilateral surgeries in the presence of binocular vision (numbers with event unclear, P = 0.35), and over-correction (RR of having exotropia 1.09, 95% CI 0.45 to 2.63; 1 study, 118 participants). Dissociated vertical deviation, latent nystagmus, or both were observed in 8% to 21% of participants. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: Medial rectus recessions may increase the incidence of treatment success compared with botulinum toxin injections alone, but the evidence was very uncertain. No evidence of important difference was found between bilateral surgery and unilateral surgery. Due to insufficient evidence, it was not possible to resolve the controversies regarding type of surgery, non-surgical intervention, or age of intervention in this review. There is clearly a need to conduct good quality trials in these areas to improve the evidence base for the management of IE.

INTRODUCTION: A 66 year-old male suffered globe trauma due to A bird, a German Desert Hawk, strike. At the first examination in the emergency ünit a few hours after the injury, the patient reported persistent horizontal diplopia. CASE REPORT: He had right conjunctival laceration, mild proptosis, subconjunctival hematoma, exotropia with no adduction. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) revealed that it was suggestive of laceration of the right medial rectus muscle, at about the junction of it's anterior and middle thirds. During surgery; initially, the lacerated proximal end of the distal segment was isolated. The proximal segment of the medial rectus muscle was then carefully dissected. The two lacerated ends were then joined with 6-0 polyglactin sutures. CONCLUSION: The day after surgery, there was no deviation and diplopia in all diagnostic gaze positions.

PURPOSE: To report a series of cases, who developed consecutive exodeviation after vertical muscle transposition (VRT) performed for sixth nerve palsy, describe their management and analyse their outcome. DESIGN: Retrospective case series. METHODS: This is an institutional study on patients who developed consecutive exotropia following VRT for sixth nerve palsy in two different centres. The age, gender, cause, and time to surgery were reviewed. Ductions, versions and angles of misalignment were analysed. In those who developed an exotropia >10 PD after surgery, a second surgery was performed. The time to the second surgery, intra-operative findings, surgical procedure and outcome were studied. RESULTS: A total of 164 cases of VRT for sixth nerve palsy were identified. Nine patients developed consecutive exotropia >10 PD (5.5%). There were no significant differences in the characteristics of those who developed overcorrection compared to those who did not. Five patients had full-tendon muscle transposition, three patients had Hummelsheim procedure and one patient had Jensen procedure. The average angle of consecutive exotropia was 26 ± 9 Δ (range 10-40 Δ). After the second surgery, angle of exotropia decreased to 21 ± 15 PD. Seven patients still had residual exotropia ≥10Δ and the exotropia was corrected in the remaining two patients. The time to second surgery in those two patients was much shorter than the other seven patients. CONCLUSIONS: Patients who undergo VRT should be followed up in the early post-operative period and revisiting the transposition should be done immediately in case of consecutive exotropia to avoid permanent overcorrection.

Introduction: We report a case of large angle exotropia in a child with limitation of adduction in the left eye with a radiological finding of hypoplastic medial rectus. Methods: A 3- year- old male child presented with left eye large angle exotropia, left face turn, -4 adduction limitation and severe amblyopia. Orbital imaging revealed hypoplasia of the medial rectus and intraoperatively a thin medial rectus was noted. The surgical procedure planned was lateral rectus recession combined with Modified Nishida's technique in the left eye. In this technique the superior and inferior recti were transposed medially by inserting non-absorbable sutures in the sclera posteriorly, closer to the upper and lower borders of the medial rectus muscle. Result: There was improvement in adduction of left eye and reduction of original deviation following maximal lateral rectus recession and a modified Nishida's approach. The early and optimal correction of exotropia also improved the compliance to patching with subsequent gain in visual acuity of the amblyopic eye. Conclusion: Modified Nishida's technique has the advantage of no muscle splitting and no tenotomy, remains a less invasive surgical procedure to correct large deviations. The modification of placing the bellies closer to medial rectus augments the effect and further improves adduction in cases with severe limitation of adduction. This technique can thus be considered as a possible surgical approach in young children with large angle exotropia due to hypoplastic medial rectus.

In patients with intermittent exotropia (IXT), to investigate the correlation between fusional convergence amplitude and saccade during refusion, as well as the differences in saccade caused by suppression.We measured the fusional convergence amplitude using a synoptophore. Suppression was assessed in 15 patients with IXT (mean age 18.1 ± 11.0 yrs, range 8-54 yrs) having diplopia during exotropia. We performed the cover-uncover test and recorded the saccade during the shift from exotropia to binocular fixation using an eye-tracking system. We analyzed the correlation between the fusional convergence amplitude on the one hand and the saccade peak velocity (PV), the saccade amplitude, and the saccade amplitude of the fusion on the other. We also investigated the difference of those saccade variables between patients with and without suppression.In 15 patients with IXT, the median fusional convergence amplitude was 14 (range 0-60) °, and suppression was confirmed in 11 patients. When the cover was removed from the dominant eye, the fusional convergence amplitude showed a positive correlation with the saccade PV and the amplitude in non-dominant eye (r = 0.570, p = 0.042 and r = 0.669, p = 0.012, respectively). The mean saccade PV, the mean saccade amplitude and the mean saccade amplitude of the fusion were not significantly different with the presence or the absence of the suppression.The fusional convergence amplitude was correlated with saccade in patients with IXT. The saccade during refusion can thus be used to quantitatively evaluate sensory and/or motor fusion.

Here, we report a case of an 85-year-old man who presented sudden onset of diplopia, dysarthria, and gait disturbance. On admission, he exhibited bilateral adduction palsy, convergence palsy, and binocular exotropia in the forward gaze showing wall-eyed bilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia (WEBINO) syndrome. He had a history of chronic nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. DWI-MRI revealed acute ischemic lesions in the paramedian pontine tegmentum, lower midbrain, both cerebellar hemispheres, and left frontal cortex. He was thus diagnosed with an acute phase of cardioembolic stroke. Subsequently, the right eye adduction palsy in the forward gaze was slightly improved, but other eye movement disorders persisted during discharge from the hospital. The pathology was suspected to involve bilateral damages to both medial longitudinal fasciculus and the paramedian pontine reticular formation. WEBINO syndrome was not only ascribed to lacunar infarction and large artery atherosclerosis but also cardioembolic stroke. The presence of other non-eye symptoms and multiple ischemic lesions could be the characteristics of WEBINO syndrome following cardioembolic stroke.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to detail perioperative ophthalmologic evaluations to characterize functional ocular outcomes after facial bipartition surgery. METHODS: Patients with hypertelorbitism who underwent facial bipartition surgery were studied specifically for eye motility disorders by separating patients into rare craniofacial clefts (midline and paramedian) (n = 34) and craniofacial dysostosis (Apert, Crouzon, and Pfeiffer) (n = 74). Preoperative and postoperative (12 months) ophthalmologic examinations (with depth perception tests), computed tomography scans, and magnetic resonance imaging scans were analyzed. RESULTS: Among craniofacial cleft patients, mean interdacryon distance was reduced from 39 ± 4 mm to 17 ± 2 mm, with strabismus improved from 88 percent (exotropia 82 percent) preoperatively to only 29 percent postoperatively. Depth perception improved to a lesser degree, with abnormal tests at a rate of 79 percent preoperatively to 56 percent postoperatively. Wider hypertelorbitism had a higher degree of strabismus. Among craniofacial dysostotic patients, mean interdacryon distance was reduced from 37 ± 3 mm to 17 ± 2 mm, and strabismus improved from 55 percent to only 14 percent. Depth perception improved to a lesser degree, with 68 percent abnormal tests preoperatively and 46 percent postoperatively. Apert patients had more V-pattern strabismus and exotropia (79 percent) than did other craniofacial dysostosis patients (42 percent). CONCLUSIONS: The authors' data indicate that facial bipartition for hypertelorbitism-known to improve periorbital aesthetics-also improves eye motility disturbances. Thus, vision problems related to exotropia should be considered a functional indication for facial bipartition surgery in patients with hypertelorbitism. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, IV.

La exotropía sensorial se define como una desviación ocular divergente unilateral o bilateral, dada por anomalías oculares congénitas o adquiridas; es más frecuente en adultos. El objetivo de la cirugía de estrabismo en el adulto es restablecer la visión binocular, reduciendo la diplopía y al lograr el alineamiento ocular, mejorar su estética, por lo que antes de realizar la cirugía se debe tratar la causa que provoca la baja visión. El procedimiento quirúrgico de elección es la cirugía monocular, pero si la desviación es grande se realizará cirugía binocular. Se presenta una paciente femenino de 25 años de edad portadora de lentes de contacto por miopía elevada del ojo derecho (9,00 -0.75 x 105º con 0,2 de agudeza visual mejor corregida), exotropía de más de 25º por Hirschberg, limitación de aducción del ojo derecho y por método de oclusor y prismas a 6 metros sin cristales y con sus lentes de contacto, ambos ojos 50 ∆ b interna, no estereopsia y suprime ojo derecho. Por todas las ventajas que presenta la cirugía monocular, se decidió realizarla en el ojo derecho, se colocó anestesia local peribulbar, se realizó recesión amplia del recto lateral a 12 mm y se realizó 8 mm de resección del recto medial; en el postoperatorio se logró 10 ∆ b interna y por momentos ortotropia; refirió diplopía post quirúrgica que resolvió espontáneamente. Los resultados quirúrgicos en la exotropía sensorial son menos alentadores ya que con el tiempo pueden evolucionar hacia la hipercorrección o hacia la recurrencia(AU)
Sensory exotropía is defined as a unilateral or bilateral divergent ocular deviation, given by congenital or acquired ocular anomalies, and is more frequent in adults. The objective of the strabismus surgery in adults is to reestablish binocular vision, reduce diplopía, improve ocular alignment and enhance quality of life; before performing surgery the cause of low vision should be treated. The preferred surgical procedure is a monocular approach, but if there is a large deviation a binocular procedure should be performed. The case presented Is a 25 year-old female with high myopia of the right eye (-9.00 -0.75 x 105º with 0.2 of best corrected visual acuity), exotropía of more than 25º for Hirschberg, limitation of aducción of the right eye and with both the oclusor method and prisms to 6 meters without glasses and with her contact lenses, both eyes have 50∆ of internal base, no estereopsia and suppression of the right eye. For its advantages a monocular approach (of the right eye) was preferred, with peribulbar anesthesia: recession to 12mm of the lateral rectus combined with 8 mm of resection of the medial rectus; in the postoperative she presented a 10∆ intern base deviation and for moments ortotropia; she referred diplopia that solved spontaneously. The surgical results in sensory exotropía are less encouraging since they have higher hypercorrection and recurrence rates(AU)

PURPOSE: To evaluate the demographic details, clinical presentation, and surgical outcomes in patients presenting with strabismus following orbital wall fractures. METHODS: A retrospective review was conducted over a 6-year period on 347 consecutive patients with strabismus who presented after orbital wall fractures. The patients were evaluated for their demographic data, clinical presentation, and profiles, management, complications, and outcomes of strabismus. RESULTS: Strabismus following orbital wall fractures was noted in 347 patients: 87.03% were men (n = 302) and 12.97% were women (n = 45). Fracture of the orbital floor in isolation or in combination with other walls was more frequently noted in 72.3% of patients (n = 251). The resultant strabismus included paralytic, restrictive, or both etiologies. Exotropia was noted most frequently in 25.65% of patients (n = 89), followed by exotropia with hypotropia in 20.75% of patients (n = 72). Ten percent of patients with strabismus (n = 34), who were observed for at least 6 months after injury, underwent surgical correction for strabismus. Preoperative diplopia was observed in 79.41% of patients (n = 27) and persisted after strabismus surgery in 15% of patients (n = 6). A successful outcome regarding the postoperative angle of deviation of 10 prism diopters or less horizontal and/or 5 prism diopters or less of vertical deviation with elimination of diplopia was observed in 41.17% of patients. CONCLUSIONS: Strabismus following orbital wall fractures is complex and requires a tailored strategy. The current study found the orbital floor to be more frequently involved in orbital wall fractures. However, the resultant strabismus was a combination of paralytic and restrictive etiologies.

PURPOSE: The causative factors of infantile exotropia are unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between the biorbital angle and the pathogenesis of infantile exotropia. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective. METHODS: Of all patients diagnosed as infantile exotropia with onset prior to 12 months of age between 2010 and 2017, 31 patients without any neurological disorders or developmental delay were identified. The angle between both lateral walls of the orbit, defined as the biorbital angle, was measured in the horizontal plane at the optic nerve and where the horizontal extraocular muscles appeared on axial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) of the orbit. These patients' data were compared with those of 129 ophthalmologically normal children. All subjects of this study were Japanese. RESULTS: The mean biorbital angle was significantly larger in patients with infantile exotropia than in the normal children (106.6 ± 5.7° vs 94.2 ± 5.1°, p < 0.001). Of the patients with infantile exotropia, 21 (68%) had an angle outside the 95% confidence interval calculated in normal children. All cases were divided into a constant (15 cases) and intermittent (16 cases) group; there was no significant difference between them in the mean biorbital angles (107.9 ± 5.6° vs 105.4 ± 5.8°, p = 0.224). No correlations were identified between the biorbital angle and the angle of exodeviation, either distant or near. CONCLUSIONS: Children with infantile exotropia have a larger biorbital angle. This anatomical abnormality may be an associate factor of infantile exotropia.

We investigated the effects of using a virtual reality smartphone-based head-mounted display (VR SHMD) device for 2 h on visual parameters. Fifty-eight healthy volunteers were recruited. The participants played games using VR SHMD or smartphones for 2 h on different days. Visual parameters including refraction, accommodation, convergence, stereopsis, and ocular alignment and measured choroidal thickness before and after the use of VR SHMD or smartphones were investigated. Subjective symptoms were assessed using questionnaires. We analyzed the differences in visual parameters before and after the use of VR SHMD or smartphones and correlations between baseline visual parameters and those after the use of the devices. Significant changes were observed in near-point convergence and accommodation, exophoric deviation, stereopsis, and accommodative lag after the use of VR SHMD but not after that of smartphones. The subjective discomfort associated with dry eye and neurologic symptoms were more severe in the VR group than in the smartphone group. There were no significant changes in refraction and choroidal thickness after the use of either of the two devices. The poorer the participants' accommodation and convergence ability the greater the resistance to changes in these visual parameters, and participants with a large exophoria were more prone to worsening of exophoria than those with a small exophoria.

BACKGROUND: Linear nevus sebaceous syndrome (LNSS) is a rare genetic disease characterized by large linear sebaceous nevus typically on the face, scalp, or neck. LNSS could be accompanied by multisystem disorders including the central nervous system. Herein, we report gene mutational profile via whole exome sequencing of both lesional and non-lesional skin samples in a LNSS patient. CASE PRESENTATION: A 17-year-old girl presented with multisystem abnormalities, including large skin lesions, ocular disorders, abnormal bone development and neurological symptoms. A diagnosis of LNSS was established based on clinical manifestations, histopathological and imaging findings. The skin lesions were resected and no recurrence was noted at the time of drafting this report. Whole exome sequencing of genomic DNA revealed the following 3 mutations in the lesions of the index patient: KRAS (c.35G > A, p.G12D), PRKRIR (c.A1674T, p.R558S), and RRP7A (c. C670T, p.R224W), but no mutation was found in the healthy skin and peripheral blood sample of the index patient, or in the blood samples of her parents and sibling. PCR-mediated Sanger sequencing of DNA derived from lesional skin sample of the index patient verified KRAS mutation, but not PRKRIR (c.A1674T, p.R558S) and RRP7A (c. C670T, p.R224W). None of the 3 mutations was found in Sanger sequencing in skin lesions of 60 other cases of nevus sebaceous patients. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings show the relevance of KRAS mutation to LNSS, providing new clues in understanding related genetic heterogeneity which could aid genetic counselling for LNSS patients.

PURPOSE: After bilateral lateral rectus recession for intermittent exotropia, children can develop V- or A-pattern esodeviation and adopt a chin-down or chin-up position to facilitate fusion. The aim of this study was to discuss possible causes and management of this pattern. METHODS: The medical records of children who developed consecutive esodeviation with V- or A-pattern strabismus after surgery for intermittent exotropia but with no pre- or postoperative oblique muscle dysfunction were reviewed retrospectively. Ductions, versions, angles of deviation, and fundus torsion were evaluated before and after surgery. Patient management and outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 37 patients were identified (mean age, 5.7 ± 1.5 years), with a mean preoperative deviation of 30.6Δ ± 5.2Δ; no patient had a preoperative pattern strabismus. Mean bilateral lateral rectus recession was 6.2 ± 0.9 mm. Of the 37, 34 (89%) returned postoperatively with V pattern, 2 with an A pattern, and 1 with an hourglass-like pattern. No patient showed oblique muscle dysfunction or fundus torsion. Reoperation for the consecutive deviation was performed in 19 patients, in all of whom the lateral rectus muscles were not vertically displaced. The pattern disappeared completely after reoperation and reestablishment of adequate alignment in the primary position. CONCLUSIONS: In our patient cohort, pattern strabismus after bilateral lateral rectus recession was successfully reversed by correction of the consecutive esodeviation.
