Lai YH, Chang SJ. Efforts to improve the surgical outcome for exotropia and investigation of the insertion locations of the extraocular muscles. Kaohsiung J Med Sci 2023; 39:834-841. [PMID: 37341429 DOI: 10.1002/kjm2.12724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/22/2023] Open
Abstract
In our previous retrospective study, we found that using the strabismus surgery dosages established by western strabismus mentors tends to result in undercorrection of Taiwanese exotropia (XT) patients compared with those in western populations. We also discovered that the location of extraocular muscle (EOM) insertion could vary by ethnicity. In this study, using a generalized estimation equation model, we compared the XT surgery outcome between augmented and original strabismus surgery dosages in Taiwanese patients. We also conducted an observational study to investigate the horizontal EOM insertion location in a Taiwanese population and compared the data with Dr. Apt L.'s study. For Taiwanese XT patients, augmented surgical dosages resulted in significantly better outcome at 6 months and 1 year postoperatively compared with original surgical dosages (p = 0.003 and p < 0.001, respectively). The distance from the lateral recuts muscle (LR) insertion location to the limbus was significantly shorter in Taiwanese than in white Americans (6.5 vs. 6.9 mm, respectively, p = 0.0001). Furthermore, the medial rectus muscle and LR insertion locations differed significantly between males and females (p < 0.001 and p = 0.023, respectively). The patients' sex did not affect the surgery outcome. Augmented surgery doses modified from western strabismus mentors produce better surgery outcome for Taiwanese XT patients. Surgeons may require country-specific guidelines for strabismus surgery dosage. We also demonstrated a simple method for young ophthalmologists to establish their own normograms to improve their surgical success rate. Our study confirms that LR insertion locations differ between Taiwanese and White Americans.

Clin Ophthalmol 2022; 16:1449-1465. [PMID: 35547399 PMCID: PMC9084506 DOI: 10.2147/opth.s365622] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To describe the clinical role of swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography in extraocular muscle imaging in various strabismic conditions. Study Design Prospective observational study. Participants A total of 1104 extraocular muscles of 150 subjects were imaged. Normal eyes (640 muscles), eyes undergoing re-operation (240 muscles), paralytic strabismic eyes (16 muscles), non-paralytic strabismic eyes (20 muscles), post-traumatic strabismic eyes (64 muscles), eyes with thyroid disease (64 muscles), and other atypical cases (60 muscles) were imaged. In all cases, up to four recti muscles were evaluated in a given eye depending on the need. Results The mean age was 38.15 ± 16.25 years. Overall, muscle insertion was identified in over 90% of the subjects. Apart from normal muscles (n = 860, 93.68%), the location was identified in previously operated eyes (n = 54, 90%), in traumatic muscle slippage (n = 2, 11.11%), in ocular coat ectasia (n = 11, 91.66%), in thyroid muscle hypertrophy, in operated scleral fixated intraocular lens with strabismus, and other challenging cases. In all circumstances, clinically useful information was obtained from the anterior 4–14 millimetres of the rectus muscle, which in turn helped in active surgical planning and overall management. Conclusion The SS-ASOCT with its wider and deeper scanning abilities was able to locate the extraocular muscle insertion in a variety of strabismic conditions. Therefore, this tool can be used in the preoperative periods for optimal surgical planning and management.

[PMID: 34272509 PMCID: PMC8807841 DOI: 10.1038/s41433-021-01686-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2021] [Revised: 06/17/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
In this systematic review, we provide an overview of the current state of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT). As iOCT technology is increasingly utilized, its current clinical applications and potential uses warrant attention. Here, we categorize the findings of various studies by their respective fields, including the use of iOCT in vitreoretinal surgery, corneal surgery, glaucoma surgery, cataract surgery, and pediatric ophthalmology. The trend observed in recent decades towards performing minimally invasive ophthalmic surgery has caused practitioners to recognize the limitations of using a conventional surgical microscope for intraoperative visualization. Thus, the superior visualization provided by iOCT can improve the safety of these surgical techniques and promote the development of new minimally invasive ophthalmic surgeries. Landmark prospective studies found that iOCT can significantly affect surgical decision making and can cause a subsequent change in surgical strategy, and the use of iOCT has potential to improve surgical outcome. Despite these advantages, however, iOCT is still a relatively new technique, and beginning users of iOCT can encounter limitations that can preclude their reaching the full potential of iOCT and in this respect several improvements are needed.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the shape of the extraocular muscles (EOMs) in normal subjects using the en-face images of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). The EOM insertion and the direction of the muscle fibers were investigated. Subjects and methods A total of 97 healthy normal subjects (194 eyes) at Okayama University Hospital (age, 47.1±21.5 years; range, 8–79 years) participated in the study. A series of 256 tomographic images of the rectus EOMs were captured using the C-scan function of the AS-OCT (CASIA2, TOMEY Co., Japan), and the images were converted to en-face images in multi-TIFF format. The anterior chamber angle to EOM insertion distance (AID) and the angle of the muscle fibers from the insertion site (angle of muscles) were measured from the images. The correlations of AID and angle of muscles with age and axial length were investigated and evaluated. Results AID and angle of muscles were significantly correlated with age or axial length in some EOMs. The AIDs of medial rectus (MR) (P = 0.000) and superior rectus (SR) (P = 0.005) shortened with age. The AIDs of MR (P = 0.001) and inferior rectus (IR) (P = 0.035) elongated with axial length, whereas lateral rectus (LR) (P = 0.013) shortened. The angles of MR (P = 0.001) and LR (P = 0.000) were found to have a more downward direction toward the posterior in older subjects. Conclusion En-face images can be created by AS-OCT, and the shape of the EOMs in normal subjects using these image measurements was available. With the ability to assess the EOMs, AID and angle of muscles are expected give useful information for treating and diagnosing strabismus-related diseases.

Abstract
Introduction: To study the accuracy of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) function of Cirrus HD-OCT 500 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) in calculating the insertion of rectus muscles from the limbus in patients undergoing primary squint surgery. Methodology: A prospective, double-masked, observational study was conducted on 128 muscles of 46 patients with strabismus who were planned for strabismus surgery between January 2019 and December 2019. Insertion distance from limbus was measured using AS-OCT function of Cirrus HD-OCT 500 preoperatively. Intraoperative measurements were taken using Castroviejo caliper. A Bland-Altman analysis was performed to determine the agreement between the readings. Results: A total of 128 muscles were successfully imaged and evaluated, including 13 superior recti (10.15%), 23 inferior recti (17.96%), 35 medial recti (27.34%) and 57 lateral recti (44.53%). 124 muscles (96.9%) were within 1mm difference, which was considered clinically acceptable. Bland-Altman plots showed the level of agreement between the two methods was good. Conclusion: Anterior segment scan function of Cirrus HD-OCT 500 is an accurate method to detect the insertion of extraocular recti muscles in patients of primary strabismus surgery.

A Systematic Review. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9061682. [PMID: 32498222 PMCID: PMC7356858 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9061682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2020] [Revised: 05/28/2020] [Accepted: 05/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has recently been introduced in the operating theatre. The aim of this review is to present the actual role of microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography (MI-OCT) in ophthalmology. Method: A total of 314 studies were identified, following a literature search adhering to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. After full-text evaluation, 81 studies discussing MI-OCT applications in ophthalmology were included. Results: At present, three microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography systems are commercially available. MI-OCT can help anterior and posterior segment surgeons in the decision-making process, providing direct visualization of anatomic planes before and after surgical manoeuvres, assisting in complex cases, and detecting or confirming intraoperative complications. Applications range from corneal transplant to macular surgery, including cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, paediatric examination, proliferative diabetic retinopathy surgery, and retinal detachment surgery. Conclusion: The use of MI-OCT in ophthalmic surgery is becoming increasingly prevalent and has been applied in almost all procedures. However, there are still limitations to be overcome and the technology involved remains difficult to access and use.
