Q

What is chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia

A

Progressive failure of eye movements
Mutations in mitochondrial DNA

Bilateral ptosis, reduced smooth pursuits/saccades/reflex eye mvoements (downgaze affected last), weakness of orbicularis oculi

Q

What is BRown syndrome

A

Restriction from trochlear superior oblique complex leading to limitation of elevation of eye, maximal in adducted position

When affected eye cannot move up it moves out

In upgaze, Brown syndrome patient gets a divergence pattern causing a v pattern

No superior oblique over or under action

Forced duction test postiive
No torsion
Negative head tilt test

Intorsion
Positive head tilt

Q

Steps of Parks Bielschowsky test

A
  1. Hypertropic eye
    - in RE hypertropia - right SO or right IR weakness or left IO/left SR casing lower left eye
  2. Hypertropic worse in left or right gazeRight hypertropia worsens in left gaze - right SO or left SR invovled (lack of right depression in adductiond due to SO weakness, or lack of LE elevation in abduction due to SR weakness.
  3. Hypertropia worse with left or right head tile
    Hypertropia worse with ipsilateral tilt - ipsilateral SO.
    In ipsilateral tilted position, ipsilateral SR will compensate for weak intorsion of ipsilateral SO but will also elevate at the same time and worsen hypertropipa
    Compensatory head tilt to contralateral side will improve diplopia

Q

What is Duane’s syndrome

A

Aberrant co-innervation of LR and MR by CN3 which may be associated with CN6 nucleus hypoplasia

Attempted adduction leads to:
Retrauction of globe, reduction of palpebral aperture
Up/downshift

Q

What is the management for simulated divergence excess XT

A

(Deviation at distance >= 10PD than at near. After monocular occlusion near deviation increased to <10PD of the angle at distance)

Medial rectus resection and lateral rectus recession
