RESUMEN
@# Objective To investigate the refraction status of low vision children aged 4~14 years old. Methods 228 children (376 eyes) with low vision aged 4~14 years old were recruited with retinoscopy optometry under ciliary muscles paralysis. Results 53% (72 eyes) of the preschool group had hyperopia, 41.2% (56 eyes) had myopia, and 6.0% (8 eyes) had mix astigmia. 40.0% (96 eyes) of the school-age group had hyperopia, 55.0% (132 eyes) had myopia, and 5.0% (12 eyes) had mix astigmia. The incidence of hyperopia was higher in the preschool group than in the school-age group (P<0.05). The majority of the refraction status in both groups were ranged in high level. After refraction correction and using visual aid device, 27.4% of the low vision children improved, and the number was higher in children who had better naked vision (P<0.01). Conclusion The refraction status of pre-school children with low vision is mainly hyperopia. For school-aged children, the refraction status shows a majority of myopia. The refraction errors of low vision children are mainly ranged in high level and partial low vision children improved after refraction correction
RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the central visual fields and the ocular fundus changes of both eyes of patients with pituitary adenoma. Methods A total of 70 cases of pituitary adenoma received the examination of static central visual fields of all liminal values by Humphrey instruments 750 cycloscope and the fundus exams by Topcon TRC 50X fundus photography before operations. Results There were 64.3% patients with decreased visual acuities, 80.7% with the defect of visual field, and 46.4% with fundus changes. The decrease of the visual acuity was the first diagnostic symptom in 45.7% patients, among whom 28.6% were misdiagnosed as ocular diseases. Conclusions The misdiagnosed cause is that the first diagnostic symptom is the decrease of visual acuity without defect of visual field accompanied by ocular diseases. To avoid the misdiagnosis and the omitter of pituitary adenoma, general examination of visual field should be carried out in the patients with decreased visual acuity and optic atrophy with unknown reason in the clinical diagnosis of ophthalmology.
