Surgical outcomes following strabismus surgery for abducens nerve palsy.

Purpose: To assess ocular alignment outcomes and their stability for patients who underwent strabismus surgery for abducens nerve palsy and to identify preoperative patient variables that predict surgical success or repeated surgeries.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients diagnosed with abducens nerve palsy and who subsequently underwent strabismus surgery.

Results: A total of 209 patients (386 procedures) were included.

Migration of a Dexamethasone Intravitreal Implant to the Anterior Chamber in a Patient with a Intra-Scleral Haptic Fixated Intraocular Lens.

Purpose: To report a case of posterior to anterior migration of a dexamethasone (Ozurdex) implant in a case of scleral-fixated intraocular lens (SFIOL) via Yamane technique.

Methods/patients: Single case report.

Results: Dexamethasone implant was successfully removed in the operating room.

Solitary Fibrous Tumor of the Orbit: A Case Series With Clinicopathologic Correlation and Evaluation of STAT6 as a Diagnostic Marker.

Purpose: To retrospectively describe the clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of a series of patients with solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the orbit and to evaluate signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6) as a diagnostic marker.

Methods: Review of a retrospective, noncomparative, consecutive series of patients treated at a single institution with a histopathologic diagnosis of SFT. Demographic, clinical, and imaging data were collected, and paraffin-embedded tissue sections were stained to evaluate for the presence of STAT6 and other pertinent markers.

Changes in Course of Retinopathy of Prematurity from 1986 to 2013: Comparison of Three Studies in the United States.

Purpose: To compare infant and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) characteristics from 3 clinical studies conducted over a 27-year period in the United States.

Design: Secondary analysis of results of 3 clinical studies.

Participants: Infants with birth weight (BW) <1251 g.

Wiley Post, around the world with no stereopsis.

In 1933, famed aviator Wiley Post (1898-1935) was the first pilot to fly around the world solo. In addition, during one of his many stratospheric flights, he discovered the jet stream. What makes his accomplishments even more remarkable is that he did this monocularly, having lost his left eye from traumatic endophthalmitis following an oil rig accident.

Two-year multicenter, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, parallel safety and efficacy study of 2% pirenzepine ophthalmic gel in children with myopia.

Purpose: To evaluate if the safety and efficacy of the relatively selective M1-antagonist, pirenzepine, in slowing the progression of myopia in children is sustained over a 2-year period.

Methods: This was a multicenter, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, double-masked, randomized clinical trial. Enrolled were children aged 8 to 12 years, with entry spherical equivalent refractive error of -0.

Visual field defects in deformational posterior plagiocephaly.

Purpose: We sought to determine whether visual field abnormalities occur in infants with deformational posterior plagiocephaly and to assess whether there is a relationship between the severity and laterality of visual field abnormalities with the severity and laterality of skull deformity.

Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on 40 consecutive infants with deformational posterior plagiocephaly. Each was tested with standardized binocular arc perimetry in the horizontal plane.
