Highly hyperopic children are at greater risk for developing conditions such as strabismus, amblyopia, and early literacy and reading problems. High hyperopia is a common finding in infants in a pedia...
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a pilot screening program to detect high hyperopia in 2-month-old infants in a pediatric medical practice in Columbus, Ohio....
Cycloplegic refractive error (1% tropicamide) was measured by retinoscopy and autorefraction with the Welch Allyn SureSight (Welch Allyn/Hillrom, Skaneateles Falls, NY) in 473 infants (55.4% female) w...
Twenty-eight infants (5.9%) had high hyperopia (spherical equivalent, ≥+5.00 D), and 61 (12.9%) had high hyperopia (≥+5.00 D in at least one meridian of at least one eye) by retinoscopy with 1% tropic...
High hyperopia was a common finding in 2-month-old infants in a pediatric medical setting that could be detected effectively by cycloplegic autorefraction using tropicamide. Greater cooperation betwee...
Anisometropia is a unique condition of both eyes and it is associated with vision problems such as amblyopia and reduced stereoacuity. Previous studies have not reported its change pattern by age and ...
To evaluate the optical and clinical performance of an enhanced monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) (TECNIS Eyhance ICB00; Johnson & Johnson Vision) in patients with high hyperopia and a short axial leng...
Power mapping, wavefront analysis, and the through-focus modulation transfer function area (TF-MTFa) were measured in vitro for three IOL powers (10.00, 20.00, and 30.00 diopters [D]). The clinical st...
For the three IOL powers, the power mapping revealed an increase in positive power from the periphery to the center of the lens, providing an extra positive correction of 1.00 D for a 2-mm pupil size....
The monofocal enhanced IOL provided good distance optical and visual quality and optimal visual acuity up to an intermediate-near vision distance of 50 to 40 cm in patients with high hyperopia and a s...
To investigate the safety and effectiveness of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in patients who have hyperopia with or without astigmatism....
This was a prospective multicenter trial including 374 eyes of 199 patients treated by SMILE for hyperopia using the VisuMax femtosecond laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG). Inclusion criteria were sphere u...
The preoperative spherical equivalent was +3.20 ± 1.48 D (range: +0.25 to +6.50 D). At the 12-month follow-up visit, 81% of eyes treated were within ±0.50 D and 93% of eyes were within ±1.00 D of inte...
SMILE was found to be an effective treatment method for the correction of compound hyperopic astigmatism, demonstrating a high level of efficacy, predictability, safety, and stability....
To survey paediatric eye care providers to identify current patterns of prescribing for hyperopia....
Paediatric eye care providers were invited, via email, to participate in a survey to evaluate current age-based refractive error prescribing practices. Questions were designed to determine which facto...
Responses were submitted by 738 participants regarding how they prescribe for their hyperopic patients. Most providers within each profession considered similar clinical factors when prescribing. The ...
Prescribing patterns for paediatric hyperopia vary significantly among eye care providers....
To investigate the surgical outcomes of basic-type exotropia in patients with hyperopia....
The medical records of patients who underwent surgery for basic-type exotropia and had been followed up for ≥ 2 years were retrospectively recruited. Patients with myopia and spherical equivalent (SE)...
Seventy-five patients (24 males and 51 females, mean age 5.1 ± 2.6 years, range 2.7-14.8) were included. The SE ranged from -0.9 to 4.4 and 21 patients were classified into group H and 54 into group E...
Surgery for basic-type intermittent exotropia resulted in superior outcomes in patients with hyperopia compared to those with emmetropia....
This study aimed to quantitatively evaluate optic nerve head and retinal vascular parameters in children with hyperopia in relation to age and spherical equivalent refraction (SER) using artificial in...
This cross-sectional study included 324 children with hyperopia aged 3-12 years. Participants were divided into low hyperopia (SER+0.5 D to+2.0 D) and moderate-to-high hyperopia (SER≥+2.0 D) groups. F...
Overall, 324 children were included, 172 with low and 152 with moderate-to-high hyperopia. The median optic disc area and vessel diameter were 1.42 mm...
AI-based CFP analysis showed that children with high hyperopia had larger mean vessel diameter but smaller vertical cup-to-disc ratio than those with low hyperopia. This suggests that AI can provide q...
A thorough examination (especially those including visual functional evaluation) is very important in children's eye-development during clinical practice, when they encountered with unusual excessive ...
