There is a large literature describing the dynamics and trajectories of these movements in normal primates, but there are no similarly detailed analyses for subjects with infantile strabismus syndrome. Previous studies have shown the amplitudes and directions of saccades often differ for the two eyes in this disorder, but it is unknown whether a similar disconjugacy exists for duration. The present study was designed to determine whether or not saccade duration differs for the two eyes in strabismus, and whether there are abnormalities involving the trajectories of these movements. <i>Methods</i>: Dynamic analyses of saccade trajectories and durations were performed for two normal monkeys, two with esotropia and two with exotropia. The amount of curvature was compared for the two eyes. For each monkey with strabismus, the amount of curvature was compared to normal controls. Saccades were placed into 12 bins, based on direction; for each bin, the mean saccade duration was compared for the two eyes (duration disconjugacy). The duration disconjugacy for each bin was then compared for monkeys with strabismus, versus normal control animals. <i>Results</i>: Surprisingly, the amount of curvature was not consistently greater in subjects with pattern strabismus. However, saccade curvature differed for the two eyes by a significantly greater amount for all monkeys with strabismus, compared to normal controls. In addition, for a subset of saccades in subjects with strabismus, saccade duration differed for the two eyes by more than 10 ms, even when the animal was fully alert. <i>Discussion</i>: To the best of the author's knowledge, this is the first study to show that, in strabismus, saccade durations can differ for the two eyes by an abnormally large amount. These data also suggest that, in monkeys with pattern strabismus, abnormal horizontal-vertical crosstalk in brainstem can lead to directional disconjugacy without significantly impairing component stretching. These results place important constraints on future attempts to model the neural mechanisms that contribute to directional disconjugacy in pattern strabismus.</p>","PeriodicalId":51700,"journal":{"name":"Strabismus","volume":" ","pages":"252-270"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11524785/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141735644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients in the control group were followed with part-time patch therapy. For the Intervention 1 group, in-office and home-based orthoptic training was prescribed along with playing with a video game software (PIVOT). For Intervention 2 group the same management protocol was incorporated except using the video game software. Evaluation of the control scale and degree of deviation, accommodation, convergence, and stereopsis was performed at baseline and at 1.5 months, 3 months, and 6 months follow-ups. <i>Results</i>: A total of 53 patients (21 males and 32 females) with a mean age of 10.15 ± 3.80 years (range 5-18 years) completed the treatment and follow-up visits. The angle of deviation at distance decreased significantly in all groups (<i>p</i> < .05). No significant reduction of near angle of deviations was found in the control group (<i>p</i> = .38). In the intervention groups, positive fusional vergence (PFV), stereopsis, near point of convergence (NPC), and control scale of deviation at distance improved significantly compared to the control group (all, <i>p</i> < .05). At six months follow-up, patients in the Int 1. group showed significantly increased amplitude of accommodation and positive relative accommodation (PRA) compared to the patients in the Int 2. and control groups (all, <i>p</i> < .05). <i>Conclusion</i>: Compared to part-time patch therapy, orthoptic training is more effective in the management of children with IXT. Using video games as a home-based therapy can improve accommodative abilities in these patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":51700,"journal":{"name":"Strabismus","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142669568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
