- PURPOSE To assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients diagnosed with cyclodeviation and to evaluate subjective change following surgical treatment using the Adult Strabismus-20 (AS-20) questionnaire. METHODS A prospective cohort study was performed from 2014 to 2019 on 29 adult patients with cyclodeviation and cyclodiplopia who were due to undergo corrective strabismus surgery by the same surgeon. The group was divided into two subgroups, according to the type of surgery required for fusion. All scores were analyzed for the whole sample and subgroups. Preoperative scores were compared with those of control patients. RESULTS Pre- and postoperative QoL scores were successfully collected from 26 patients (mean age, 56 years; 8 female) using the AS-20 questionnaire. Scores were significantly higher for control subjects than for patients in the cyclodeviation group (P = 0.0001). Postoperative scores for all 20 questionnaire questions were significantly improved for all patients (P = 0.002). There was a significant improvement in the functional subscale score (P = 0.001), but not in the psychosocial subscale score (P = 0.23). Results were enhanced by Rasch analysis. CONCLUSIONS Cyclodeviation patients demonstrated significantly lower scores than controls. The functional scores were significantly lower than the psychosocial scores, in contrast to other forms of strabismus. Strabismus surgery had a significant effect on quality-of-life scores in this group of adults

- PURPOSE: To describe ocular alignment and stereoacuity in adolescents with very low birth weight (VLBW) in comparison with a matched control group and to investigate associations with white matter damage of immaturity (WMDI) and visuospatial skills in the VLBW group. METHODS: Fifty-nine 15-year-old VLBW subjects and 55 age- and sex-matched controls with normal birth weight underwent examination, including measurement of ocular alignment using cover test and Maddox rod and cycloplegic refraction. Stereoacuity was assessed with the TNO test, best-corrected visual acuity with a Konstantin Moutakis letter chart, and visuospatial skills with the performance tests, defined as performance intelligence quotient (IQ), in the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-III). All VLBW subjects underwent magnetic resonance imaging of the brain. RESULTS: Ocular misalignment was significantly more common in the VLBW group than in the control group (22% compared with 4%; p = 0.004). Exophoria, subnormal stereoacuity, and subnormal performance IQ were significantly more common in the VLBW group than in the control group (p = 0.006, p = 0.011, and p = 0.015, respectively). Ocular misalignment was associated with WMDI (p = 0.035) and subnormal performance IQ (p = 0.020). Of the VLBW subjects with ocular misalignment, 69% had WMDI and/or subnormal performance IQ. CONCLUSIONS: The VLBW adolescents had more visuospatial problems, lower stereoacuity, and more ocular misalignment than the control subjects. Ocular misalignment was associated with visuospatial deficiencies and/or WMDI in the VLBW group and was a better predictor for visuospatial deficits than WMDI.
