Spasmus nutans. A long-term follow-up.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:Nystagmus, head nodding, and anomalous head position are symptoms of spasmus nutans. This disorder appears in early childhood and is thought to be self-limited. However, the visual outcome of patients with spasmus nutans is unclear. The resolution of nystagmus has not been proven with quantitative eye movement recordings. The purpose of this study was to perform long-term follow-up examinations (mean, 5.5 years) of patients with spasmus nutans. METHODS:Ten patients with spasmus nutans were followed up clinically until a mean age of 7 years. Included were quantitative eye and head movement recordings. RESULTS:At their last examination (mean age, 7.1 years), visual acuity in four patients was 20/20 in both eyes, in five patients it was 20/30 or better in at least one eye, and in one patient it was 20/50 in each eye. Three patients had orthotropia with normal stereo acuity. The remaining patients had esotropia, dissociated vertical deviation, amblyopia, or latent nystagmus. All patients had fine, intermittent asymmetric, pendular nystagmus on eye movement recordings. CONCLUSIONS:Good visual acuity can be expected in patients with spasmus nutans; one third have normal stereo acuity. However, subclinical nystagmus persists until at least 5 to 12 years of age.

  • Phakic iris-fixated intraocular lens placement in the anterior chamber: effects on aqueous flow.

    abstract:PURPOSE:Phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) are used for correcting vision; in this paper we investigate the fluid dynamical effects of an iris-fixated lens in the anterior chamber. In particular, we focus on changes in the wall shear stress (WSS) on the cornea and iris, which could be responsible for endothelial and pig...
