-treatment
decrease vision not from structural abnormality, from fovea disuse. prevalence 2-4%
Strabismic - most common cause, crowding phenom, density filters don't reduce vision
refractive - high refractive errors
deprivation - media opacity, occlusion, ptosis. critical period for development of deprivation last longer. also shorter period needed to cause amblyopia
organic - nerve/retina problem
treat: remove anything blocking vision. occlude good eye, 1 week occlusion / 1year age. cont until no improvement, reeval at 9years old

AR, dilated conj vessels, impared convergence, nystagmus, oculomotor apraxia. Has skin telangiectasia, MR, cerebellar ataxia, thymic hypoplasia, Ig! defiency causing increase risk infection and malignancy
Wyburn Mason
sporatic, AV malformation in the retina, can have glaucoma, and hemorrhage. Assoc with AV malformation of brain
retinal cavernous hemangioma
cluster of intraretinal aneurysm, filled with venous blood. looks like grapes, assoc with cutaneous and CNS hemnagiomas. FA shows fluids levels without leaking
Incontinentia Pigmenti
X-linked, occurs exclusively in females, since males dies off
a proliferative retinal vasculopathy. Like ROP. leads to RD and retrolental membrane.
skin changes:
stage 1- erythematous macules, papules, bullae
stage 2-vesicles become verrucous
stage 3- lesions become pigmented
stage 4-skin atrophies, hypopigmented
treat retina with photocoagulation.
can have hairloss, CNS abnormalitiy, dental abnormality
surgery in which EOM can cause lid changes?
Sup rectus recession cause lid retraction while resection cause fissure narrowing

Inferior rectus recession cause lower lid retraction, while resection cause fissure narrowing

when recession of muscles lid can be released or advanced
normal growth and development of eye
4mm increase in axial length during first 6 months.
corneal diameter at birth 10.5mm increase to 12mm by 2 years age
Cornea flattens in the 1st year of life, causing decrease corneal power
there is a decrease in lens power in first year of life.
acquired unilateral cataracts in full size eyes

ddx of unilateral congenital cataract
almost exclusively posterior lenticonus, amlyopia common

ddx: PHPV, anterior polar, posterior lenticonus
Which topical glaucoma medication is contraindicated in children?
brimonidine associated with CNS depression under age 3
anterior segment ischemia following strabismus surgery
blood supply to anterior segment comes from anterior ciliary artery which travel via rectus muscles. simultaneous surgery of 2 or more muscles has risk of ant. segment ischemia.
Earliest sign is cell and flair in anterior segment. can have K edema, descemet folds, severe cases necrosis and phthisis can occur
calculating AC/A ratio
normal ratio: 3:1 to 5:1
heterophoria method
AC/A = ((dev near - dev dist)/(accom demand)) + pupil dist (cm)
Lens gradient:
AC/A = (dev with lens - dev without lens) / lens power
What is the most common congenital infection in humans?
CMV, occur in 1% of infants 90% asymptomatic
Inferior oblique muscle most weakened by which procedure?
anteriorization
faden operation (posterior fixation suture)
weakening muscle in field of action, place suture through belly of muscle to sclera. Used in DVD, nystagmus, high AC/A esotropia, non-comintant strabismus
nystagmus surgery
indicated to correct head turn by shifting null point closer to primary position.
1. kestenbaum-anderson procedure
2. 4 horizontal muscle recession
