• The visual acuity outcome of patients with persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) was reviewed. A total 48 the diagnosis PHPV were seen at University Iowa, Iowa City, from 1971 through 1984. Twenty-five managed nonsurgically, which 23 had a poor (≤5/200). Two mild cases acuities 20/100 and 20/30. Twenty-three treated surgically. Five these no further postoperative rehabilitation. Eighteen underwent surgery aggressive optical occlusion therapy. Eight 18 (44%) 20/200 or better....
Child abuse can cause injury to any part of the eye. The most common manifestations are retinal hemorrhages (RHs) in infants and young children with abusive head trauma (AHT). Although RHs an important indicator possible AHT, they also found other conditions. Distinguishing number, type, location, pattern is evaluating a differential diagnosis. Eye be seen cases physical or AHT may prompt referral for ophthalmologic assessment. Physicians have responsibility consider diagnosis pediatric eye...
Abusive head trauma (AHT) in infants and children is a complex challenging clinical diagnosis. Because of its clinical, social, legal implications, few pediatric diagnoses evoke as much cognitive difficulty emotional distress AHT. Over the past several decades, considerable literature has been published on various aspects AHT diagnosis including epidemiology, historical features, findings, biomechanics, differential diagnoses, outcomes, prevention. The volume critical analysis can be...
While older children and adults with achromatopsia have been studied, less is known of young achromatopsia.To characterize the macular foveal architecture patients during early childhood handheld spectral-domain optical coherence tomographic imaging to make phenotype-genotype correlations.Comparative case series 9 age-matched control participants at a tertiary ophthalmology referral center.Patients underwent complete ocular examination, full-field electroretinography, imaging, screening for...
Sixty-two patients, 48 with a diagnosis of persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) and 14 monocular congenital cataract (MCC) are reported. Nineteen patients PHPV all MCC received surgery attempted visual rehabilitation. Early age surgery, prompt optical correction contact lens aggressive patching therapy required for successful Glaucoma, retinal or optic nerve pathology, later than three months combinations these factors were associated poor prognosis. Isolated microphthalmos was...
Background: Cobalamin C disease (cblC), which leads to methylmalonic acidemia with homocystinuria, is the most common inherited disorder of vitamin B12 metabolism. Reported ocular findings associated cblC have been maculopathy, pigmentary retinopathy, and optic nerve atrophy. A (cblA) causes an isolated without homocystinuria rarer than cblC. This first detailed report cblA. We also describe spectrum in our patients.Materials methods: case series describing ophthalmologic clinical course six...
We present the first detailed ophthalmic description of a child with Helsmoortel-Van der Aa Syndrome (HVDAS), including longitudinal follow-up and analysis.After extensive workup, young poor visual behavior, hypotonic cerebral palsy, intellectual disability, global developmental delay was found to have heterozygous de novo mutation in ADNP gene diagnosed HVDAS. Ophthalmic findings were remarkable for progressive nystagmus, macular pigment mottling, mild foveal hypoplasia abnormal...
Retinopathy of prematurity is an emerging cause blindness in Latin America. In 2007, the authors examined 88 consecutive infants Guatemala City, Guatemala, who met screening criteria for retinopathy prematurity; 14 (16%) had either “plus” or stage V disease. The incidence City likely high, and a formal program warranted.
<h3>Importance</h3> The Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group Cataract Registry provides a multicenter assessment of visual outcomes and complications after lensectomy for traumatic pediatric cataract. <h3>Objective</h3> To report acuity (VA) the cumulative proportion with strabismus, glaucoma, other ocular by 15 months cataract among children younger than 13 years at time surgery. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> From June 18, 2012, to July 8, 2015, 1266 eyes 994 from 33 eye care...
ABSTRACT The Molteno seton implant has recently been used in pediatric patients with advanced childhood glaucoma, who would otherwise have treated cyclodestructive surgery. We report a case of (first stage) associated orbital cellulitis 1-year-old child. presence the was initially unrecognized until, course evaluation for cellulitis, computerized tomography orbit suggested foreign body. believe this is first complication stage procedure.
