Anomalous retinal correspondence in esotropia. 1982

O Katsumi, and Y Tanaka, and Y Uemura

The incidence of anomalous retinal correspondence (ARC) and the effect of strabismus surgery on ARC were investigated among esotropic patients. From the results obtained, we speculated that the critical period for the occurrence of ARC would be around the age of 3 years. The normalization of ARC was observed in 21% of the cases who underwent surgery. As the eye position in all the normalized cases was parallel or exotropic postoperatively, we speculated that the alignment or slight overcorrection of eye position is necessary for the ARC to be normalized.

D009988 Orthoptics The study and treatment of defects in binocular vision resulting from defects in the optic musculature or of faulty visual habits. It involves a technique of eye exercises designed to correct the visual axes of eyes not properly coordinated for binocular vision. Pleoptics,Orthoptic,Pleoptic
D012160 Retina The ten-layered nervous tissue membrane of the eye. It is continuous with the OPTIC NERVE and receives images of external objects and transmits visual impulses to the brain. Its outer surface is in contact with the CHOROID and the inner surface with the VITREOUS BODY. The outer-most layer is pigmented, whereas the inner nine layers are transparent. Ora Serrata
D002648 Child A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL. Children
D002675 Child, Preschool A child between the ages of 2 and 5. Children, Preschool,Preschool Child,Preschool Children
D004948 Esotropia A form of ocular misalignment characterized by an excessive convergence of the visual axes, resulting in a "cross-eye" appearance. An example of this condition occurs when paralysis of the lateral rectus muscle causes an abnormal inward deviation of one eye on attempted gaze.
