Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the relation between the severity of reading disorder and visual functions among children with dyslexia.
Materials And Methods: The present study included 32 dyslexic children selected from two centers for learning disabilities in Mashhad, Iran. Dyslexics were then classified as mild, moderate, and severe based on an instrument used to determine the severity of their reading disorder.
Aim: To explore the relationship between different parameters of Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) and Corvis ST (CST) in a sample of healthy Iranian school-aged children and the relationship between parameters of these 2 instruments against intraocular pressure (IOP), measured by the Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT-IOP), age and gender, and find possible correlation between ORA and CST with GAT.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 90 healthy children. A general interview and complete eye examination were performed.
Article Synopsis
- A study in Tehran, Iran aimed to find out how common amblyopia and refractive errors are among primary school children aged 7 to 12, involving 2,410 randomly selected students.
- Results showed that 2.3% of the children had amblyopia, with a higher prevalence in younger kids and in those with specific refractive issues like hyperopia and anisometropia.
- The findings highlight the need for better screening methods and parental awareness regarding the importance of providing glasses for affected children, particularly from the Ministry of Health and insurance support.
Purpose: To determine the accuracy of photorefraction and autorefraction as compared to cycloautorefraction and to detect the repeatability of photorefraction.
Methods: This diagnostic study included the right eyes of 86 children aged 7-12 years. Refractive status was measured using photorefraction (PlusoptiX SO4, GmbH, Nürnberg, Germany) and autorefraction (Topcon RM800, USA) with and without cycloplegia.
Purpose: To determine the prevalence of color vision deficiency (CVD) and its correlation with amblyopia and refractive errors among primary school children.
Methods: In this population-based cross-sectional study, 2160 children were selected from 36 primary schools; 60 students were from each school (10 students in each grade), with equal sex distribution. A complete eye examination including refraction using a photorefractometer, determination of visual acuity (VA) and color vision using a Yang vision tester, and evaluation of ocular media opacity using a direct ophthalmoscope was performed.
