Description
Summary:Refractive error is one of the most actual problems of pediatric ophthalmology. Late and incomplete correction of refractive errors leading to amblyopia, the disruption of the formation of binocular vision, strabismus friendly. As a gross cosmetic defect and combined with violation of visual functions, strabismus in children presents as a psychophysical and social problem, making it difficult to establish social ties, often becoming an obstacle in acquiring the desired profession. A particularly difficult problem is forms of strabismus: paralytic, alphabetical (V, A, X) and other syndromes ( Duane, brown DVD, etc.) in which involved in the pathological process not only the muscles of the horizontal and vertical actions, but also one of the causes are functional disorders. In the syndrome of “V” and converging strabismus, the angle of deflection decreases when you look up and increases when looking down; in case of divergingstrabismus, the deviation is more when you look up and less when looking down. A thorough examination of a comprehensive personalized treatment, including pleopto-orthope-diploptic, training accommodation and convergence allows to restore visual function and binocular vision and to avoid secondary deviance. One-stage surgical intervention in combined horizontal-vertical strabismus with hyperfunction of the lower oblique muscle on horizontal and vertical muscle groups is an effective method of treatment allows to increase the effectiveness of surgical treatment to reduce the frequency of anesthesia, to reduce the number of repeated operations. Appointment postoperative functional treatment is an integral component of the strabismus correction and allows to achieve stable binocular functions, and further stand orthophoria.
