Acquired strabismus in high myopia is typically fixed in the positions of adduction and depression, with restrictions in both abduction and elevation. As a treatment for myopic strabismus fixus, the Yokoyama procedure is effective. We report a case of strabismus fixus with a long axial length (34 mm), in which abduction limitation was improved by the Yokoyama procedure with medial rectus recession.

Objectives: To compare the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effects of ripasudil, a rho-kinase inhibitor, and selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) as adjuvant therapy in Japanese glaucoma patients and to identify the factors associated with treatment success.

Methods: We performed a retrospective medical chart review of patients with glaucoma who received ripasudil or SLT as an adjuvant therapy. We collected data on 65 eyes (65 patients) with primary open-angle glaucoma, normal-tension glaucoma, or exfoliation glaucoma with at least 12 months of follow-up.

Dry eye disease (DED) is a disorder of the tear film. Here, we delineate the changes in distribution of DED after diagnostic criteria changes from the 2006 Japanese Diagnostic Criteria to the 2016 Asia Dry Eye Society criteria. We included 250 right eyes of 250 patients and all patients completed ophthalmic assessments for DED.

Purpose: To investigate whether the multifocal visual evoked potential (mVEP) is dependent on the electrode position, and to confirm the reproducibility of the mVEP.

Methods: The mVEPs were recorded using the Veris III system with two different bipolar electrode settings. In Position 1, electrodes were placed at equal distances in vertical alignment 2 cm above and below the inion.
