Extractions: What is Strabismus? Strabismus is a disorder in which the two eyes are not correctly aligned. If untreated it can lead to amblyopia also called 'lazy eye' a condition in which the vision in one eye deteriorates. Strabismus and amblyopia are together the most common causes of visual impairment in children. Current treatment alternatives Current treatments for strabismus and amblyopia include: surgically realigning the eyes, patching one eye or performing eye exercises to strengthen the coordination of the two eyes. Although many children with strabismus or amblyopia can be effectively treated, a better understanding of the causes of these disorders would permit a more accurate assessment of which treatment plan is most likely to succeed for each child. Doctors Kang Zhang (University of Utah School of Medicine) and Jeremy Nathans (Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine) are conducting a study to identify the role of inheritance in strabismus. It has long been known that strabismus tends to run in families, but the precise role that genes play in making some people more likely to develop strabismus is still unknown. If the mechanism of this genetic predisposition can be clarified, it is very likely to lead to improved treatment for future generations of strabismus patients. The goal of this study is to identify the genes that predispose some individuals to have a misalignment of the eyes, referred to as strabismus. A related disorder called amblyopia (lazy-eye) results in the loss of vision in one eye due to the preferential use of the other eye. Some people who have strabismus will eventually suffer from amblyopia, whereas others will not. Both of these disorders tend to run in families, and are likely to arise from the same basic problem with coordinating vision in the two eyes. If the genes responsible for a predisposition to strabismus or amblyopia can be identified, the knowledge gained will help identify children who are at higher risk for these problems and it will also help to improve decisions regarding which therapeutic approach is most likely to help each child.

http://www.botox.com/site/professionals/approved_uses/strabismus.asp

Extractions: Strabismus is characterized by a deviation in alignment of one eye from the other. In adults, strabismus can occur gradually or rapidly. The most common form of strabismus is esotropia (convergent strabismus), which occurs when the eye turns toward the nose. In exotropia (divergent strabismus) the eye turns away from the nose. One or both eyes may also turn up or down. Generally, the eyes turn in different directions. Diagnosis of strabismus is based primarily on the patient's medical history. Ophthalmologic and neurologic testing should be performed to rule out ocular or neurologic disease. Gradual onset of strabismus usually results in an outward movement of an eye. In acute onset strabismus, the eye can turn in almost any direction. Importantly, rapid onset of strabismus may be an indication of significant head trauma or systemic illness such as diabetes, cancer, or inflammation. In exotropia, the eye turns in to fixate; in esotropia, it turns out to fixate. As a therapy for strabismus in adults, BOTOX® (Botulinum Toxin Type A) Purified Neurotoxin Complex is thought to affect muscle pairs by inducing an atrophic lengthening of the injected muscle and a corresponding shortening of the muscle antagonist. The duration of effect lasts up to three months. If necessary, the neurotoxin can be reinjected as long as the patient continues to respond and does not have a serious allergic reaction.1

http://www.sunyopt.edu/uoc/strabismus.shtml

Extractions: Poor eye muscle control usually causes crossed-eyes. With strabismus, the eye-brain connection is not working properly. The signals traveling between the eyes and the brain can get mixed-up or confused. Since the two eyes point in different directions, each eye sends a different picture to the brain causing confusing visual signals. As a result, the brain will eventually ignore or suppress messages from one eye in order to make sense of what is seen.

For example, while one eye looks straight ahead, the other may turn the wrong way (deviate), looking up, down, in, or out. Strabismus, which most often begins in early childhood, is sometimes called "crossed eyes," "walleye," or "squint." It may also be called "lazy eye," but this term is more appropriately associated with poor vision resulting from amblyopia , usually in one eye. Amblyopia may be the result of strabismus if misalignment makes using an eye physically difficult, or it may lead to strabismus if the child favors the good eye, permitting the other to drift. Normally, the muscles surrounding each eye work together to move the eyes so they both focus on a given object. By 3 or 4 months of age, most infants have developed the ability to control these muscles and merge the images from both eyes into a single image, even though the visual system will not be fully developed for a few years. When the eye muscles do not work correctly, the eyes may become misaligned and the brain may not be able to merge what the misaligned eyes see into a single image. While more complicated patterns can occur, many cases of strabismus fall into one of the following categories.

Extractions: Strabismus Strabismus is a condition in which the eyes are misaligned, meaning one eye may be straight while the other is turned inward, outward, upward, or downward. A visual defect commonly accompanies strabismus. Strabismus affects about 4% of children and can continue through life, or in some instances, can begin in adulthood. Good alignment of both eyes during childhood allows normal vision to develop. The first nine years of life are particularly important, since this is the Period when the brain is developing visually. In strabismus, the abnormal alignment may cause reduced vision, which is referred to as amblyopia. In addition, the brain will often use the image of the accurate eye while ignoring the image of the deviating eye, which can cause a loss of one component of depth perception known as binocular vision with stereopsis. Early diagnosis and treatment of strabismus is important and can directly affect outcome with respect to visual acuity and binocular vision. Children's eyes should be examined as part of regular check-ups by a pediatrician or family doctor from infancy through the school years . Infant's eyes are often slightly misaligned during the first month of life. However, large degrees of misalignment or misalignment persisting beyond about one month of age should be investigated. It is often difficult for parents to determine whether their babies' eyes are misaligned. The pediatrician and the ophthamologist can help determine whether an infant has strabismus.
