Health-related quality of life and binocular vision in patients with diplopia in acute-onset comitant esotropia with press-on prism improves / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

ABSTRACT

AIM:To assess the effect of press-on prisms in patients with acute-onset comitant esotropia and diplopia,focusing primarily on vision-related quality of life and binocular vision.METHODS:Retrospective case-series study.Totally 16 acute-onset comitant esotropia patients with diplopia who received treatment in the Huzhou Central Hospital were included in this study from March 2014 to March 2017.Vision-related quality of life before press-on prism correction and 1mo after press-on prism correction were performed with the Chinese version of the 25-item National Eye Institute Visual Functioning Questionnaire (CHI-NEI-VFQ-25).In each time of follow-up,we made a minute examination,includes worth four dot test and stereo tests.Data was statistically analyzed with paired sample t test,Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test.RESULTS:Except the degree of eye pain,color vision and perimetry,the indicators from CHI-NEI-VFQ-25 table including general health status,overall vision,mental health,social role difficulties,social functional,near activities,distant activities,independency and driving of acute-onset comitant esotropia patients with diplopia were obviously significant improved 1 mo after press-on prism correction (P＜0.05).One month after press-on prism correction,the fusion function and stereo acuity were significant enhanced (P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Press-on prism correction may be helpful for binocular vision recovery in acute-onset comitant esotropia patients with diplopia,so as improve the vision-related quality of life.
