Q

what is the refractive norms for premature babies

A
  • short al , shallow ac, highly curved cornea
  • premature eyes developed less hypermetropia due to diff in ACD and cornea curvature
  • high prevalence of myopia
  • myopia decrease as child goes

*all compare against full term

Q

ssx of uncorrected rx in young children

A
  • poor stereopsis - difficult with depth perception, and eye hand coordination difficulties
  • frequent rub eye
  • blink excessively
  • cannot maintain fixation on task
  • frequently close/ cover 1 eye
  • lack of interest in out door activities
  • lack of interest in near task
  • squinting

Q

ssx of myopia based on age :
1. birth - 5 yo
2. >5

A
  1. birth - 5 yo
    - low rx - no ssx
    - moderate to high - lack of interest at distance object, get close to toys, books/ tv
  2. > 5
    - hold book close
    - squint to see the board
    - fail vx screening
    - poor va at all distance
16
Q

ssx of hyperopia based on age :
1. birth - 5 yo
2. >5

A
  1. birth - 5 yo
    low rx: no ssx
    mod to high: possible esotropia, lack of interest in near task, poor eye hand coordination and perceptual skills
  2. > 5
    low - no ssx
    mod: lack of interest in near task, poor reading skills, asthenopia
    high : reduced va at dist and near
17
Q

ssx of astigmatism based on age :
1. birth - 3yo
2. 3-5 yo
3. >5

A
  1. birth - 3yo
    - no ssx
  2. 3-5 yo
    - reduced va, decrease interest in fine detailed task
  3. > 5
    - reduced distance at distanec and near
    - asthenopia
18
Q

ssx of anisometropia based on age:
1. birth to 4
2. >4

A
  1. birth to 4
    - possible no ssx
    - decreased stereopsis/ other bv skills
    -amblyopia
  2. > 4
    - asthenopia
    - decreased stereopsis/ other bv skills
    -amblyopia
19
Q

rx changes during school years (>5) and their possible outcome

A

> 1.50D - tend to remain hyperopic
+0.50 - +1.25 - tend to become emmetreopic
pl to +0.50 - tend to be myopic

<pl - tend to be more myopic

20
Q

why should refraction be conducted before bv assessment

A

ensure, clear retinal image, and balance correction in both eye

*also impt as accommodative esotropia can be corrected with spx

21
Q

what are the types of refraction test we can use for paeds

A

6 test:
- mohindra
- distance retinoscopy
- cycloplegic refraction

the following test are only taken as screening/ confirmation:
- photorefraction
- autorefractor
- k meter and keratoscope

22
Q

what are the indication for cyclopegic refraction

A

8 indication:
- fluctuating reflexes
- inability to fixate
- uncooperative
- strabismus
- suspected latent hyperopia
- amblyopia
- anisometropia
- high accom lag

23
Q

how do we control accommodation in children

A
  • interesting target
  • fixate at 6m
  • use wdl for older children
  • neutralise and push for max plus
  • cycloplegic if indicated - best way
24
Q

what is the selection of refraction test based on age

A

<3 - near retinoscopy, cycloplegic refraction
3-5: distance, cycloplegic, subjective rx

25
Q

types of cycloplegia available

A

3 types:
- atropine - hospital esp for esotropic
- cyloplegic spray -useful for uncooperative and light iris
- cyclopentolate 1% - hospital 2 drops, 5 mins after, refraction 30 mins after
