T/F ET is more common than XT
T
T/F In school age children, Intermitten ET is more commo than cosntant ET
FALSE

cosntant is more common
When does esotropia usually occur?
typically etween 1 and 3 years of age.

are almost always stable and constant
usually are unilateral

due to these facts, amblyopia is likely
Almost 50% off esotropes have a associated ____ deviation
vertical

due to an over-action of inferior oblique
Esotropia often larger at ____ due to accomodative and proximal convergence
near
Infantile ET refers to ET that has an onset of approximately what age?
6 months




Congential esotropia means you were BORN with it. IT IS NOT THE SAME THIGN
Prevelence of infantile esotropia in the general propulation and of all esotropias?
1% in general pop
28-54% of all ET
What is the etiology of infantile esotropia?
excessive tonic convergence. Child does ot have copenstory negative fusiona l verence to overcome the tonic convergence
Clinical characteristics of infanitle ET=
LARGE constant angle of ET=40-60 pd. You CANNOT miss this

it is SAME at D and N
often alternating ET with a NORMAL AC/A ratio (no acocmoative component)

Tends to have hyeropia (greater than 2D).

Pt needs surgery ASAP
Associated conitions with infantile esotropia?
1.dissociated vertical deviation (50-90%)
bilateral hyper deviation
usually latent, seen only on occlusion of either eye
Eye moves UP uder the paddle

2. Overactio nof inferior oblique (78%).
3. Latent nystagmus
4. Rotary nystagmus
Treatment of infanilte ET=
poor porgnoisis for functional cure since its during critical period, so no stereo develops. BUT good prognosis for cosmetic cure.
Treat RE
Treat Ambylopia- use alterante occlusion between each eye per day because you do not want deprivation amblyopia.
Refer to surgery before 18 months of age.
Surgery will ONLY fix appearance.
Best surgery outcome for infanilte ET occurs if it happens before what age?
18 months
What does Surgery for infantile ET consist of?
bilateral MR recession. MR is cut and moved back so eye cant pull the eye as hard.
Goal is an ET of 10 pd or less.
can result in microtropia and monofixaatio syndrome
50% of all ET have n ______ component
accomodative (hyperopia or AC/A)
Typical age of onset for accomodative ET is typically
between 6 months and 8 years with an average of 2.5 yrs
Accomodative ET is usally due to
hyperopia and/or high AC/C ratio
3 types of fully accomodative ET
a. refractive accomodative ET (due to hyperopia only)
b. Non-refractive accomodative ET (due to high AC/A only)
c. Mixed refractive accomodaive ET (high hyoperia and high AC/A)
Symptoms of accomodative ET:
INTERMITTENT eye turn. Diplopia is common
rubbing, or closing 2 eye when performing near tasks
poor cosmeis
Size of deviation for refractivee accomodative ET at D and N
are usally the same at both and within 10pd.
MAY be larger at N due to AC/A ratio or poor divergence skills
However, AC/A is typically normal
Etiology of refractive accomodative ET
due to Hyperopia, usually 2-6D

if higher than 6D, isometropic amblyopia occurs more frequently than ET
LOW NFV
REfractive Accomdoative ET is what kind of ET
usually intermittent and alternating --> AC very unlikely, due to instability of deviation and intermittent deviation.
AC, if presnet, will go away as accomdative ET is treated
Treatment of refractive accomodative ET
Rx full hyperopia error from cycloplegic value (subtract .50D)
BIFOCAL is NOT necessary
followup in 4-6 weeks for full binocular eval and then every 6 months
consider VT if I vergence is low
SURGERY IS CONTRAINDICATED
___________ET is similar to CE
nonrefractive accomodative
Symptoms on NONrefractive accomodative ET
intermittent eye turn at NEAR only
rub or close eye when performing N tasks
poor cosmesis
Size of deviation of nonrefractive accomodative ET
orth to mild ET at D
10 pd of eT or MORE at N
etiology of nonrefractive accomodative ET
AC/A ratio

typically above 6/1
Is AC likely in a pt with nonrefractive accomodative ET?
NO

if present it is lightly embedded and will go away as treated
T/F Amblyopia is unlikely in pts with nonrefractive accomodative ET
T
Treatment of non-refractive accomodative ET
correct ametropia
prescribe BIFOCAL (depends on AC/A amount, deviation size, Harmon's diance... max is 3D)
Must give Flat top until adolescent
FU in 6 weeks
conisder VT if compensatinve NFV is low
Surgery is CONTRAINDICATED
When is the trope noticed in Mixed accomodative Esotropia
deviation is present at D and N but LARGER at NEAR

moderate to high hyperopia PLUS high AC/A ratio
Treatment of mixed accomdoative esotropia
correct hyeropia based off of cycl -.50D
PRESCRIBE BIFOCAL depending on AC/A, flat top
fu in 6 weeks
consider VT if NFV is low
SURGERY IS CONTRAINDICATED
________________esotropia=esotropia that is not affected by correction of the RE or by RX of a bifocal. Angle is the same at distance and near.
non-accomodative esotropia
aka basic eso
Early onset non-accomodative ET occurs at what age?
occurs before 2 years of age (6month to 1 year usually)
Acute aquired comitant ET usually occurs at what age?
usually after 2 yers, typically between 3-5 usually happens suddenly
The cause of early onset non-accomodative ET?

What amount of ET is typical?
(just like infantile esotropia)
innervational due to excessive tonic convergence with poor control of NFV

30-70 pd constant alternating ET similar at distance and near
Treatment of early onset nonaccomodative ET?
a.treat significant RE (treat 2.5 Hyperopia or higher ,if small hyoperia, dont treat)--> repeat CT after 1 month
b. treat amblyopia by constant occlusion (alternating suppression)
c. REFER FOR SURGERY, once amblyopia and supperession are gone)
d. Post surgical VT
Acute Aquired comitant non-accomodaive ET tends to look like wat?
constant unilateral ET

moderate angle 20-30 pd, could have AC, suppresion, or both

can lead to amblyopia.

Treatment of acute aquired comitant nonaccomodative ET?
a. Correct Rx
b. Consider a bifocal of it improves function
