Anisometropia and amblyopia in nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
J AAPOS
June 2013
Wheaton Eye Clinic, Wheaton, Illinois 60187, USA.
Purpose: To investigate an association of childhood nasolacrimal duct obstruction (NLDO) with anisometropia and amblyopia.
Methods: The medical records of patients from newborn to 6 years of age with a diagnosis of NLDO seen from 2000 to 2010 were retrospectively reviewed. Data collected included age at onset of NLDO, laterality of NLDO, cycloplegic refractive error, determination of clinically significant anisometropia (defined as ≥1 D), and diagnosis of amblyopia with amblyopia subtype (anisometropic vs other).
Purpose: Glaucoma is a prevalent ophthalmologic disease and leading cause of blindness. A retrospective analysis was conducted to evaluate resources and costs for end-stage glaucoma patients receiving visual rehabilitation care (VRC).
Materials And Methods: A chart review was conducted in 3 United States VRC centers.
