Understanding post-operative refractive outcome in pediatrics after IOL implementation: factors and predictors.

Background: In pediatric ophthalmology, calculating intra-ocular lens (IOL) power can be challenging. It is important to predict if the post-surgery refractive error (RE) will meet the intended refractive goal. In this study, we aimed to investigate the factors and predictors influencing RE outcomes in children undergoing IOL implantation.

Outcomes of inferior oblique muscle myectomy with tucking into Tenon's capsule, cohort prospective study.

: Inferior oblique muscle overaction (IOOA) is a prevalent ocular muscle motility disorder. This study aimed to investigate the outcomes and impact of IO muscle myectomy with and without tucking the proximal end of the muscle into Tenon's capsule in two surgical groups as a treatment for IOOA. : Randomized cohort study that involves two surgical groups.

Phenotype and genotype of 15 Saudi patients with achromatopsia: A case series.

Purpose: Achromatopsia is a rare stationary retinal disorder that primarily affects the cone photoreceptors. Individuals with achromatopsia present with photophobia, nystagmus, reduced visual acuity (VA), and color blindness. Multiple genes responsible for achromatopsia have been identified (e.

Botulinum Toxin as an Adjunct to Bilateral Medial Rectus Recessions for Large Angle of Esotropia in High Myopic Patients: A Case Report.

Botulinum toxin injection adjunct to bilateral medial rectus recession is a documented procedure for correcting the large angle of infantile esotropia. A 9-year-old boy presented with a large angle of esotropia (80 PD) and high myopia. He underwent bilateral medial rectus recession with an adjunct botulinum toxin injection.

Evaluation of the efficacy of botulinum toxin injection for the treatment of infantile esotropia.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the outcomes and complications of botulinum toxin injection (BTX) as the primary treatment of infantile esotropia (IET).

Methods: We included patients with IET who underwent BTX from 2015 to 2020. IET was defined as esotropia present before 12 months of age, with no significant refractive error, or limitation of rotations.

Bilateral Lateral Rectus Recession in Duane Retraction Syndrome Type II: A Case Report.

A two year presented to the clinic with abnormal head posture and right-sided face turn since birth. On examination, he showed a large right face turn of 40° while concentrating on a near target. His ocular motility assessment showed a -4 limitation of adduction in the left eye with 40 prism diopters (PD) exotropia and grade 1 globe retraction of the left eye.

Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Among Parents of Strabismic Children in Saudi Arabia: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Background Strabismus is a reversible condition that must be identified and treated during the critical period of childhood. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the degree of knowledge, attitude, and practice among parents of strabismic children in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Method To this end, a cross-sectional study was conducted from August 2021 to November 2021 with a sample size of 424 parents of children with strabismus seeking ophthalmologic consultants in private and governmental ophthalmology clinics in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Acquired Brown Syndrome After a Fist Punch: A Case Report.

A 15-year-old male presented with double vision in the left and upward gaze following a hit in the right orbital region. The orthoptic assessment revealed -2 limitation of elevation in the adduction position of the right eye and right hypotropia of 20 prism diopter (PD) in the left gaze and right hypotropia of 10 PD in the upward gaze. He was diagnosed with traumatic Brown syndrome and planned for superior oblique lengthening surgery for the right eye.

The prevalence of strabismus and visual outcomes in children with hydrocephalus and a ventriculoperitoneal shunt: medical record review.

Background: Many ophthalmological complications have been associated with hydrocephalus (HC), including ocular motility disorders, visual field defects, optic atrophy, and loss of visual acuity. No studies have investigated the prevalence of strabismus and visual outcomes of children with congenital HC after ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt in Saudi Arabia.

Objectives: Estimate the frequency of strabismic children diagnosed with HC who underwent a VP shunt procedure.

Lateral rectus recession for consecutive exotropia in esotropic Duane syndrome: A case report.

Consecutive exotropia is considered as a rare complication after medial rectus recession that is performed for cases of esotropic Duane syndrome. Here, we present a case of 5-year-old female initially presented with the limitation of abduction, narrowing of the palpebral fissure, and globe retraction of the left eye along with a mild left face turn. She was diagnosed with Duane syndrome Type 1.

Unilateral optic neuritis, scleritis and exudative retinal detachment due to recurrent orbital pseudotumor.

Idiopathic orbital inflammation, also known as orbital pseudotumor, describes a spectrum of idiopathic, non-neoplastic, non-infectious, space-occupying orbital lesions without identifiable local or systemic cause. The condition occurs mainly in young adults who may present with acute pain, proptosis, chemosis and limitations of extraocular movements. Decreased vision due to optic nerve infiltration and macular edema as a result of scleritis is less common sequel of orbital pseudotumor.
