We reviewed the records of 32 consecutive children (43 eyes) who underwent lensectomy/vitrectomy between January 1988 and August 1990 at the Medical Center of the University of California at San Francisco, to study the incidence and characteristics of clinically significant postoperative
OBJECTIVE
To report on the causes of uveitis in children and young adults and their effects on visual functions.
METHODS
Two hundred and seventy six patients, 18 years old or younger, with uveitis were included in this study. The intraocular inflammation (uveitis) was classified according to
The author examined 20 hypermetropic eyes with functional amblyopia with application of the objectively sciascopically determined diopters and, separately, without such correction, during the investigation of the visual field using Goldmann kinetic light perimetry in photopia. The starting
Background: Prior studies have reported a lower retinal vessel density (RVD) in amblyopic vs. non-amblyopic eyes. No studies have shown if amblyopic eye RVD changes following patching therapy. We assessed for RVD differences between pre-treatment vs. post-treatment amblyopic
A 6-year-old boy presented with unexplained unilateral low visual acuity. Best-corrected visual acuity was counting fingers in the right eye and 20/20 in the left eye. Fundus examination of the right eye revealed intermediate uveitis, with moderate vitritis, snowballs, and snowbanking. Infectious
OBJECTIVE
In a clinical investigation, we evaluated anatomical and functional outcomes of posterior phakic chamber lens (ICL) implantation for correction of high myopia with amblyopia in children.
METHODS
Twelve eyes of 11 children, age 3 to 16 years, with high myopic amblyopia were operated with
OBJECTIVE
To ascertain the prevalence of uveitis in a population of pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease without ocular symptoms.
METHODS
We prospectively evaluated all young people who came to the pediatric gastroenterology clinic with endoscopically proven inflammatory bowel disease
During 1986-1991 vitreous surgery was performed in 5 girls and 8 boys (age range 2-15 years) with chronic uveitis. In 6 cases a combined lensectomy-vitrectomy was performed because cataract was present, so that the results generally refer to 19 eyes. We found a low rate of postoperative
Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a severe chronic bilateral inflammation of the ocular surface characterized by seasonal exacerbations. Long-term prognosis is generally good; however, 6% develop sequelae responsible for permanent visual impairment. Corneal involvement is almost always present,
BACKGROUND
Shield-shaped corneal ulcers and plaques are serious sight-threatening corneal manifestations of vernal keratoconjunctivitis. There are few reports describing the management of these patients and their outcomes.
METHODS
The clinical presentation, treatment, and outcome of 66 shield ulcers
OBJECTIVE
To present preoperative strategies and results of cataract surgery in patients with different types of uveitis.
METHODS
The results of 18 cases of extracapsular cataract extraction with or without intraocular lens implantation were retrospectively analysed. Age of patients ranged from 10
Early and accurate detection of eye disorders in children can present a challenge for family physicians. Visual acuity screening, preferably performed before four years of age, is essential for diagnosing amblyopia. Cover testing may disclose small-angle or intermittent strabismus. Leukocoria, which
OBJECTIVE
To study the primary mutations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) associated with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) in patients with optic neuropathy.
METHODS
Seventy-nine patients with a variety of bilateral optic neuropathies were examined. Mutations at np3460, np11,778 and np14,484
The authors report four cases of the rarest form of the congenital fibrosis syndrome. This disorder is exhibited in infancy as unilateral blepharoptosis, strabismus, limited ductions, globe displacement (enophthalmos and blepharoptosis), and decreased vision, usually due to amblyopia. Forced
Third nerve paralysis has been known to be associated with a wide spectrum of presentation and other associated factors such as the presence of ptosis, pupillary involvement, amblyopia, aberrant regeneration, poor bell's phenomenon, superior oblique (SO) overaction, and lateral rectus (LR)
