Background: To investigate the current prescribing patterns for correcting hyperopia among optometrists in clinical practice in Saudi Arabia and compare those to current international guidelines. And explore the factors that influence practitioners' prescribing decision.
Method: This cross-sectional study employed 30 items online survey that encompass demographic data, current practice and cycloplegia use, numerical response to indicate the minimum level of hyperopia at which optometrists would consider prescribing spectacles to non-strabismic children and determine the diopter value required for prescribing correction for hyperopia if present with other factors.

Accommodation is the process of adjusting the eye's optical power so as to focus at different distances. Uncorrected refractive error and/or functional presbyopia mean that sharp focus may not be achievable for some distances, so observers experience sustained defocus. Here, we identify a problem with current models of accommodative control: They predict excessive internal responses to stimuli outside accommodative range, leading to unrealistic adaptation effects.

Purpose: To investigate the impact of accommodation function on the difference between cycloplegic and noncycloplegic subjective and automatic refraction in adult myopes.
Methods: Myopic patients between 18 and 50 years old evaluated at Peking University Third Hospital who underwent cycloplegic and noncycloplegic automatic and subjective refraction were enrolled. Accommodation function, including negative and positive relative accommodation (PRA/NRA) and accommodation response (binocular cross cylinder, BCC) was examined.

A three-year-old female patient was admitted to our institution due to subacute fever, intermittent vomiting, persistent bilateral mydriasis after cycloplegia, right central facial palsy, and mild right hemiparesis with hyperreflexia. Brain MRI shows encephalitis in frontal, parietal, insular, and left putamen course and loss of cortical volume and white matter of the entire left hemisphere which are features described in Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE). Therapy with intravenous methylprednisolone bolus was initiated, with adequate clinical response.
