Management of Microtropia
Br J Ophthalmol: first published as 10.1136/bjo.58.3.281 on 1 March 1974. Downloaded from Brit. J. Ophthal. (I974) 58, 28 I Management of microtropia J. LANG Zirich, Switzerland Microtropia or microstrabismus may be briefly described as a manifest strabismus of less than 50 with harmonious anomalous correspondence. Three forms can be distinguished: primary constant, primary decompensating, and secondary. There are three situations in which the ophthalmologist may be confronted with micro- tropia: (i) Amblyopia without strabismus; (2) Hereditary and familial strabismus; (3) Residual strabismus after surgery. This may be called secondary microtropia, for everyone will admit that in most cases of convergent strabismus perfect parallelism and bifoveal fixation are not achieved even after expert treatment. Microtropia and similar conditions were not mentioned by such well-known early copyright. practitioners as Javal, Worth, Duane, and Bielschowsky. The views of Maddox (i898), that very small angles were extremely rare, and that the natural tendency to fusion was much too strong to allow small angles to exist, appear to be typical. The first to mention small residual angles was Pugh (I936), who wrote: "A patient with monocular squint who has been trained to have equal vision in each eye and full stereoscopic vision with good amplitude of fusion may in 3 months relapse into a slight deviation http://bjo.bmj.com/ in the weaker eye and the vision retrogresses". Similar observations of small residual angles have been made by Swan, Kirschberg, Jampolsky, Gittoes-Davis, Cashell, Lyle, Broadman, and Gortz. There has been much discussion in both the British Orthoptic Journal and the American Orthoptic journal on the cause of this condition and ways of avoiding it. -

OUT-PATIENT PHYSICIAN, THE NATIONAL HOSPITAL FOR NERVOUS DISEASES, QUEEN SQUARE http://bjo.bmj.com/ IN earlier papers on this subject it has been suggested that certain apparently dissimilar abnormal pupillary reactions formerly described as occurring in unrelated conditions are manifestations of the same disorder. The abnormal reactions are, on the one hand, the tonic pupillary reaction (syn. pupillotonia, myotonic reaction, tonic convergence reaction of pupils apparently inactive to light, on September 30, 2021 by guest. Protected Marcus's peculiar pupil phenomenon, non-luetic Argyll Robertson pupil, pseudo-Argyll Robertson pupil) and, on the other hand what may be called atypical phases of the tonic pupil. In the atypical phases tonic reactions are absent or difficult to detect and the state of the pupil in cases that present them is usually desig- nated by the term fixed pupil, ophthalmoplegia interna, iridoplegia or partial iridoplegia, of unknown origin. The disorder referred to, if the views expressed here are correct, may manifest itself in the following clinical forms: A.

Classification of Strabismus
Classification of strabismus Pr Dr Monique Cordonnier Université Libre de Bruxelles Most prominent feature to have in mind = BINOCULAR VISION potential ? Yes or No If the strabismus was present during the first 6- 8 months of life, there is no This potential means that potential for treatment (……) may restore normal binocular binocularity, warranting vision stability and avoiding recurrences Binocular vision = eyes are like wheels on the rails of a railtrack 1 What is BINOCULAR VISION ? 1. Normal - Bifoveolar fixation with normal visual acuity in each eye, no strabismus, no diplopia, normal retinal correspondence, normal fusional vergence amplitudes, normal stereopsis. 2. Subnormal (abnormal) – 1 or more of the following; anomalous retinal correspondence, suppression, deficient to no stereopsis, amblyopia, decreased fusional vergence amplitudes. 3. Absence of Binocular Vision - no simultaneous perception, no fusion, no stereopsis Besides, the classification of strabismus is based on a number of features including : . The relative position of the eyes . The time of onset (=clue for binocular vision potential), . Whether the deviation is intermittent (=clue for binocular vision potential) or constant . Whether the deviation is comitant (supranuclear cause) or incomitant (nuclear or infranuclear cause, clue for binocular vision potential if the eyes are straight in one position) . According to the associated refractive error (accommodative strabismus) 2 Most common types of strabismus in children Supranuclear causes Paralytic, muscular or -

International Council of Ophthalmology Residency Curriculum International Council of Ophthalmology 945 Green Street San Francisco, CA 94133 United States of America www.icoph.org © 2006, 2012 by The International Council of Ophthalmology All rights reserved. First edition 2006 Second edition 2012. International Council of Ophthalmology Residency Curriculum Introduction “Teaching the Teachers” The International Council of Ophthalmology (ICO) is committed to leading efforts to improve ophthalmic education to meet the growing need for eye care worldwide. To enhance educational programs and ensure best practices are available, the ICO focuses on "Teaching the Teachers," and offers curricula, conferences, courses, and resources to those involved in ophthalmic education. By providing ophthalmic educators with the tools to become better teachers, we will have better-trained ophthalmologists and professionals throughout the world, with the ultimate result being better patient care. Launched in 2012, the ICO’s Center for Ophthalmic Educators, educators.icoph.org, offers a broad array of educational tools, resources, and guidelines for teachers of residents, medical students, subspecialty fellows, practicing ophthalmologists, and allied eye care personnel. The Center enables resources to be sorted by intended audience and guides ophthalmology teachers in the construction of web-based courses, development and use of assessment tools, and applying evidence-based strategies for enhancing adult learning. The interactive feature, “Connections,” is the Center’s dynamic focal point, where ophthalmic educators can share ideas and collaborate with peers. The Center builds on the ICO’s original interactive online educational presence: World Ophthalmology Residency Development (WORD), which was developed in 2008 by Eduardo Mayorga, MD, ICO Director for E-Learning, and Gabriela Palis, MD, Editor-in-Chief, Center for Ophthalmic Educators. -
