Neuromuscular Deviations Flashcards
Split
Infancy Ocular Instability
variable, transient, intermittent angle strabismus
2-3 months
resolves in 4 months
only a problem if tropia persists or is large and constant
Esophoria
inward latent deviation controlled by fusional vergences
Esotropia
inward manifest deviation not controlled by fusional vergences
Pseudoesotropia
appearance of ET when eyes are straight
norm in kids with flat nose bridges and prominent epicanthal folds and small PD
Congenital ET
first 6 months
large constant esotropia
may have cross fixation
>30pd
Other findings of Congenital ET
amblyopia A/V pattern DVD- both eyes hyper OIO- overactive nystagmus head posturing
Managing Congenital ET
glasses/ bifocals/ prism patch VT surgery botox
Accommodative Esotropia
associated with accommodative reflex
starts intermittent but can become constant
often hereditary
Onset of Accommodative ET
6 mo to 7 yrs
Refractive Accommodative ET
from uncorrected high hyperopia (forces accom) and insufficient fusional vergence to diverge
Deviation of Refractive Accommodative ET
20-35pd
intermittent, alternating with asthenopia
Refractive Accommodative ET refraction
+3.00 to +6.00
amblyopia if greater
Managing Refractive Accommodative ET
cycloplegic refraction (2 drops) Full correction VT
Non-Refractive Accommodative Esotropia
from high AC/ A
insufficient vergence to diverge
greater at N
AC/ A Fromula
Absolute change / absolute change in accommodation
Managing Non-Refractive Accommodative Esotropia
bifocals- seg height bisects pupil
Mixed Accommodative Esotropia
some refractive and some nonrefractive issues
high hyperope w/ high AC/A
Managing Mixed Accommodative Esotropia
full hyperopic correction
only do surgery if did not start wearing glasses early enough
Partially Accommodative Esotropia
accommodation contributes to but does not completely cause deviation
after delayed treatment- did not start glasses early enough
reduced angle but ET still present- constant, unilateral
