METHODS. COMET enrolled 469 ethnically diverse children (ages, 611 years) with myopia between 1.25 and 4.50 D. They were randomly assigned to either progressive addition lenses (PALs) with a +2.00 addition (n = 235) or single vision... more
Binocular stereopsis, or stereo vision, is the ability to derive information about how far away objects are, based solely on the relative positions of the object in the two eyes. It depends on both sensory and motor abilities. In this... more
Profound bradycardia during eye surgery is potentially serious event. In clinical practice this Oculocardiac Reflex (OCR) is most often encountered during squint surgery. The objective of this study was to assess the occurrence of OCR and... more
ABSTRACT Amblyopia is a developmental ocular disease of childhood-onset which may lead to persistent sequelae into adulthood. Early detection and management of amblyopia usually result in an improved visual outcome. The purpose of this... more
Objective recording of accommodation dynamics was performed in four patients with divergence excess exotropia (two true and two simulated) and in three visually normal control subjects. The accommodative peak velocity/amplitude... more

Background: This is a retrospective study to determine the outcomes of the surgical correction in long-standing infantile esotropia with cross fixation. Methods: Medical charts of a group of patients with esotropia who had cross fixation... more
The major types of ametropia and visual problems for Hong Kong Chinese and Caucasian children are different. Consequently, the referral criteria developed for Caucasian children may not be applicable to Hong Kong children. Results of our... more
An apparatus for strabismus detection was designed to allow photographing fundus and corneal reflexes for Brückner and Hirschberg testing, respectively. Photographs of adult subjects with simulated strabismic deviations were viewed by two... more

Botulinum toxin (BT) prevents the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction and produces reversible paralysis of striated muscle. This effect was initially used for ophthalmologic indications, particularly strabismus. The... more
Skew deviation is a vertical misalignment of the eyes caused by damage to prenuclear vestibular input to ocular motor nuclei. The resultant vertical ocular deviation is relatively comitant in nature, and is usually seen in the context of... more
To investigate the level of agreement between orthoptists and medical practitioners in the comprehensive eye examination of children seen in an orthoptist-led triage clinic. Patient records over a 6-month period were retrospectively... more
Orthoptic therapy was instituted in an adult, alternating esotrope with asthenopia who exhibited inaccurate static accommodative responses with adequate, clinically determined, accommodative facility. During and following therapy the... more
