Abstract

Inherited retinopathies can initially present with high refractive error in the first decade of life, before accompanying signs or symptoms are evident. A 4-year-old girl with high myopia (S-12.00 C-4.00 × 20 in the right and S-14.50 C-2.75 × 160 in the left eye), moderate visual acuity (0.3 logMAR in the right and 0.4 logMAR in the left eye), and left esotropia, presented with unremarkable past medical history and no family history of high refractive error or low vision. In optical coherence tomography imaging, macular thinning was evident, while morphology was normal. Full-field electroretinogram revealed normal implicit time recordings with reduced amplitudes in scotopic and photopic conditions. Fundus autofluorescence showed a radial pattern in both eyes. During a 5-year follow-up, significant myopia progression ensued (S-17.25 C-3.00 × 20 in the right and S-17.25 C-2.00 × 160 in the left eye), with a corresponding increase in axial length and an unchanged visual acuity. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous termination codon variant c.212C>G (p.Ser71Ter) in RPGR, considered to be pathogenic. Segregation analysis precluded the variation in the mother and sister. A random pattern of X-chromosome inactivation was detected in the proband, without X-chromosome inactivation deviation. This is the second report associating this specific RPGR mutation with high myopia and the first report to identify it in a female proband. This case provides additional evidence on the genotypic-phenotypic correlation between RPGR c.212C>G mutation and high myopia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Amblyopia, the most common visual impairment of childhood, is a public health concern. An extended period of optical treatment before patching is recommended by the clinical guidelines of several countries. The aim of this study was to compare an intensive patching regimen, with and without extended optical treatment (EOT), in a randomised controlled trial.

32. Binocular summation in subjects with strabismus: A systematic review

Subjects

Abstract

The question of the review is to assess whether, in patients with strabismus, binocular summation is different to that in the healthy population. We aim to identify whether summation exists to some extent or is completely compromised resulting in binocular inhibition.

35. Is thrombocytopenia and postnatal weight gain associated with treatment‐requiring retinopathy of prematurity? A matched case–control study.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the association of platelet parameters and postnatal weight gain with treatment‐requiring ROP (TR‐ROP). Methods: In this retrospective matched case–control study, infants with TR‐ROP were individually matched, according to gestational age and birth weight, with one or two untreated infants who developed no or spontaneously regressed ROP. Longitudinal data on platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), daily weight and platelet transfusions were collected. Platelet mass index (PMI) and weight standard deviation score (WSDS) were also calculated. Conditional logistic regression analysis was performed to adjust for matching. Results: Fourteen cases, presenting type I ROP, and 25 matched controls were included. The odds of developing TR‐ROP decreased as PLT increased during 31st week of postmenstrual age (PMA) or during 1st and 2nd week of postnatal age (PNA). The odds of developing TR‐ROP were 16.7 times higher in infants receiving at least one platelet transfusion compared with those who were not transfused. The odds of developing TR‐ROP increased by 31.2% as the mean volume of platelet transfusion per infant increased by 1 ml. The odds of developing TR‐ROP decreased as PMI increased during 1st week PNA, and as weight and WSDS increased during 4th–6th week PNA. Analysis of MPV, number of thrombopenic episodes per infant, number of platelet transfusions per infant and days with WSDS < −2 showed no association with TR‐ROP. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first study ascertaining an association of platelet transfusions with type I ROP. Prospective cohort studies are required to confirm our findings.

48. Initial assessment and follow-up of a myopic child: A clinical evaluation tool

Abstract

Myopia comprises the leading cause of visual impairment in childhood, showing a global rapid rise in prevalence over the past years. Myopia progression has been related with a number of ocular complications potentially resulting in blindness, including glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataract, and retinal detachment. Etiopathogenesis of this disorder is regarded multifactorial, involving both environmental and genetic components. Near work activities are believed to play a key role in myopic development, owing to the induced hyperopic defocus on the peripheral retina that may result in axial elongation. Other parameters including outdoor exposure, physical activity and digital screen time are also hypothesized to be connected with myopic development. Ocular examination of myopic subjects should include visual acuity assessment, refraction, biometry and choroidal thickness measurements, as well as evaluation of the accommodative functions. We propose a clinical assessment tool, as a useful guide for all eye care professionals examining and treating juvenile myopes., Aristotle Biomedical Journal, Vol 4, No 1 (2022)
