Article Abstract
Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effects of acquired esotropia on vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain in children using video (vHIT) and functional head impulse (fHIT) tests.
Methods: A total of 62 children aged 6-18 years, with acquired esotropia and normal vision, were evaluated in the study. The patients were divided into two sub-groups: accommodative and non-accommodative. VOR gains were analyzed by performing lateral canal vHIT and fHIT with monocular and binocular recordings by a single examiner.
Results: Seventeen (10 male, 7 female) children with accommodative esotropia, 24 (14 male, 10 female) children with non-accommodative esotropia, and 21 (8 male and 12 female) healthy controls were included in this study. The vHIT findings did not differ between the groups (p˃.05). In the non-accommodative esotropia group, the location of the camera in both binocular and monocular vHIT recordings made a significant difference in the left VOR gain (p = .025, z = -2.243, p = .032, and z = -2.143, respectively), but no difference was observed in the right VOR gain. In the accommodative esotropia group, while the camera was on the left there was a significant difference in the right VOR gain between binocular and monocular recordings (p = .016, z = -2.413) but no difference was observed in the left VOR gain. No overt or covert saccade was detected in any group.
Conclusions: The statistical differences found in vHIT and fHIT in acquired esotropia patients are thought to be sporadic and based on the results of this study no correction or change in recording technique is required for vHIT or fHIT in children with acquired esotropia.

Introduction: Evidence is consistent with increased screen viewing time among children and adolescents, and anticipation at the age at which children interact with media devices. Incorrect use of technology, as well as overuse, may lead to serious consequences. This study aims to revise scientific international literature and to describe the potential eye risks correlated to screen viewing time in the pediatric age.

Purpose: To compare the outcomes of augmented-dose surgery for acute acquired comitant esotropia (AACE) based on either the single Maddox rod test (SMRT), or the prism and alternate cover test (PACT), in cases where there is a clinically significant difference in the deviation using the two tests.
Methods: The medical records of AACE patients who underwent augmented-dose surgery with a difference of ≥5 in preoperative deviations on PACT and SMRT were reviewed retrospectively. Augmented-dose surgery was based on the SMRT or PACT.
