We report the case of a 12-year-old girl with stage 4 neuroblastoma who developed tonic pupils secondary to immunotherapy with dinutuximab, an anti-GD2 antibody, based on the timeline provided by her mother with regard to onset of symptoms. The patient presented with difficulty reading and chronic dilated pupils bilaterally, according to her mother's observations over 6 months prior to presentation. Testing with dilute pilocarpine supported our presumption of tonic pupils.

Craniosynostosis, the premature fusion of cranial sutures, can lead to distortion of skull shape and neurological dysfunction. We present a novel case of Horner syndrome as the presenting sign of craniosynostosis associated with elevated intracranial pressure. A 10-year-old boy presenting for strabismus follow-up was noted to have new-onset anisocoria, greater in the dark, and mild right upper eyelid ptosis. Apraclonidine testing was concerning for Horner syndrome. Neuroimaging demonstrated previously undiagnosed sagittal craniosynostosis with tortuous optic nerves and large cerebrospinal fluid spaces around both optic nerves...

Myelinated retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) is a rare structural anomaly that occurs from abnormal myelination extending anterior to the lamina cribrosa. Clinically, myelinated RNFL is characterized as a gray-white lesion with feathered, well-demarcated borders obscuring the retinal vasculature. Myelinated RNFL is typically congenital, benign, and asymptomatic. It is most commonly noted as an incidental finding on ophthalmic examination. However, cases of acquired myelinated RNFL have been reported. We report the case of a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 and optic pathway glioma with unilateral acquired myelinated RNFL...

Improving access to comfortable and well-fitting glasses for children with craniofacial differences may improve their visual outcomes. The purpose of this study was to describe challenges in spectacle fitting facing patients with frontonasal dysplasia and to report successful methods for creating custom 3D designed glasses. Additionally, the process of systematically collecting and analyzing spectacle-fitting challenges can inform future processes of automated design of 3D printed glasses and can be applied to other specific craniofacial syndromes...

Classically, peripheral vascular changes in the retina in patients with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2) are described as vascular attenuation seen in the late stages of disease on the Weill Connell Ophthalmic Severity Score (WCOSS) staging system. We describe isolated, mild, peripheral vasculitis with peripheral arteriolar dropout identified by fluorescein angiography in patients with a WCOSS grade of stage 2. We believe this vasculitis represents an early vasodegenerative phase of disease that leads to the vascular attenuation seen in later stages of the disease...

Antielevation syndrome is commonly described following anteriorization of the inferior oblique muscle. A similar phenomenon may occur following inferior oblique muscle recession, creating a distinct strabismus pattern in the setting of cranial trochlear nerve palsy. We report 3 adult patients, 69-72 years of age, who presented at the Stanford Byers Eye Institute with a similar strabismus pattern-limited elevation in abduction following previous inferior oblique muscle recession for congenital/long-standing trochlear nerve palsy...

PURPOSE: To determine the postoperative fundus torsion following surgical inferior oblique (IO) weakening in patients with inferior oblique overaction (IOOA). METHODS: In this interventional case series, 37 patients with IOOA ≥ +1 and reliable preoperative fundus photographs were included. IO weakening was accomplished through myectomy or anterior transposition. Fundus photography was repeated at 3 months' follow-up. The primary outcome was change of disk foveal angle (DFA), measured as the angle between the line connecting the center of the fovea and optic disk and horizontal...

No previous imaging study has described the appearance of the inferior oblique muscle after surgery. It is unknown whether findings signifying prior myectomy or recession are recognizable on magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and how they might differ for the two procedures. After myectomy via a temporal approach, the cauterized muscle stump retracts into the medial orbit. How far it retracts and whether it reattaches to the globe remains unclear. To address these issues, orbital MR images were reviewed in 5 patients who had previously undergone inferior oblique myectomy or recession...

This cross-sectional study used data from a large nationwide registry to describe the factors associated with use of botulinum toxin injections for adults with strabismus in the United States. Botulinum toxin injections were performed on 3.1% of adults undergoing an intervention for strabismus between 2013 and 2020. Adults treated with botulinum toxin injections were more likely to be older and female. Compared to non-Hispanic White patients, non-Hispanic Black patients were three times less likely to receive treatment with botulinum toxin after adjusting for age, sex, geographic region, and type of insurance...

Ocular colobomas are typically located in the inferonasal quadrant and attributable to defective fetal fissure closure. Colobomas can, however, affect any part of the eye, from the eyelid to the optic nerve. We present the case of a 7-year-old girl with two retinochoroidal colobomas in an atypical temporal location, with associated other ocular defects.

BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment for large-angle exotropia can be challenging. The aim of this study was to evaluate short-term surgical outcomes of patients with large-angle exotropia (≥50Δ ) undergoing maximal bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession of 10 mm. METHODS: This was a retrospective study of consecutive patients at our institution who underwent maximal bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession for exodeviation ≥50Δ from January 1, 2008, to July 22, 2022...

PURPOSE: To assess the level and the determinants of compliance with outpatient retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) examination appointments at a tertiary academic center. METHODS: The medical records of babies scheduled for outpatient ROP examination between January 1, 2022, and December 31, 2022, were reviewed retrospectively. Data collected included appointments scheduled and attended, birth weight, gestational age, ROP staging at discharge, maternal ethnicity (self-identified), household type, proximity to hospital and median family income (US Census based on home zip codes)...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a mesenchymal neoplasm that rarely metastasizes and is more commonly seen in children, adolescents, and young adults than older adults. These tumors, composed of myofibroblasts and inflammatory cells, are often confused for a local infection due to the inflammatory cell infiltration, and they form in mucosal surfaces but rarely arise in the orbit. We present the case of a 6-year-old girl with excisional biopsy-confirmed conjunctival stromal IMT. There was no evidence of recurrence 2 years following resection with no subsequent medical therapy...

We report a case of torsional diplopia caused by presumed torsional anomalous retinal correspondence after myectomy of previously asymmetrically anteriorized inferior oblique muscles for inferior oblique overaction. Given this patient's experience, it may be prudent to operate with caution on previously anteriorized inferior oblique muscles, especially when anteriorization is performed at a very young age.

PURPOSE: To explore the associations between race and retinoblastoma diagnosis in United States children. METHODS: In this analytical nonconcurrent cohort study, we used 1988-2018 data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End-Results (SEER) database. Children ages 0-17 with retinoblastoma were included (n = 758); those with missing data were excluded (n = 11; final cohort: n = 747). The exposure variable was race (White, Black, Asian/Pacific Islanders, American Indian/Alaska Native), and the outcome variable was diagnosis of retinoblastoma before versus after 2 years of age...
