RESUMO

Importance: Increased myopic shift was found to be associated with 1 year of overminus spectacle treatment for children with intermittent exotropia (IXT). Persistence of myopic shift after discontinuing overminus spectacles is unknown. Objective: To compare refractive error change over 3 years in children with IXT originally treated with overminus vs nonoverminus spectacles. Design, Setting, and Participants: This study was an 18-month extension of the Trial of Overminus Spectacle Therapy for Intermittent Exotropia cohort, which previously randomized children aged 3 to 10 years with IXT and baseline spherical equivalent refractive error (SER) between -6.00 diopters (D) and 1.00 D to overminus spectacles (-2.50 D for 12 months, -1.25 D for 3 months, and nonoverminus for 3 months) or nonoverminus spectacles. Children were recruited from 56 sites from July 2010 to February 2022. Data were analyzed from February 2022 to January 2024. Interventions: After trial completion at 18 months, participants were followed up at 24 and 36 months. Treatment was at investigator discretion from 18 to 36 months. Main Outcomes and Measures: Change in SER (cycloplegic retinoscopy) from baseline to 36 months. Results: Of 386 children in the Trial of Overminus Spectacle Therapy for Intermittent Exotropia, 223 (57.8%) consented to 18 months of additional follow-up, including 124 of 196 (63.3%) in the overminus treatment group and 99 of 190 (52.1%) in the nonoverminus treatment group. Of 205 children who completed 36-month follow-up, 116 (56.6%) were female, and the mean (SD) age at randomization was 6.2 (2.1) years. Mean (SD) SER change from baseline to 36 months was greater in the overminus group (-0.74 [1.00] D) compared with the nonoverminus group (-0.44 [0.85] D; adjusted difference, -0.36 D; 95% CI, -0.59 to -0.12; P = .003), with 30 of 112 (26.8%) in the overminus group having more than 1 D of myopic shift compared with 14 of 91 (15%) in the nonoverminus group (risk ratio, 1.8; 95% CI, 1.0-3.0). From 12 to 36 months, mean (SD) myopic shift was -0.34 (0.67) D and -0.36 (0.66) D in the overminus and nonoverminus groups, respectively (adjusted difference, -0.001 D; 95% CI, -0.18 to 0.18; P = .99). Conclusions and Relevance: The greater myopic shift observed after 1 year of -2.50-D overminus lens treatment remained at 3 years. Both groups had similar myopic shift during the 2-year period after treatment weaning and cessation. The risk of myopic shift should be discussed with parents when considering overminus lens treatment. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02807350.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To report 2-year ocular and developmental outcomes for infants receiving low doses of intravitreal bevacizumab for type 1 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). METHODS: A total of 120 premature infants (mean birthweight, 687 g; mean gestational age, 24.8 weeks) with type 1 ROP were enrolled in a multicenter, phase 1 dose de-escalation study. One eye per infant received 0.25 mg, 0.125 mg, 0.063 mg, 0.031 mg, 0.016 mg, 0.008 mg, 0.004 mg, or 0.002 mg of intravitreal bevacizumab; fellow eyes when treated received one dosage level higher. At 2 years, 70 of 120 children (58%) underwent ocular examinations; 51 (43%) were assessed using the Bayley Scale of Infant and Toddler Development. RESULTS: Correlation coefficients for the association of total dosage of bevacizumab with Bayley subscales were -0.20 for cognitive (95% CI, -0.45 to 0.08), -0.15 for motor (95% CI, -0.41 to 0.14), and -0.19 for language (95% CI, -0.44 to 0.10). Fourteen children (21%) had myopia greater than -5.00 D in one or both eyes, 7 (10%) had optic nerve atrophy and/or cupping, 20 (29%) had strabismus, 8 (11%) had manifest nystagmus, and 9 (13%) had amblyopia. CONCLUSIONS: In this study cohort, there was no statistically significant correlation between dosage of bevacizumab and Bayley scores at 2 years. However, the sample size was small and the retention rate relatively low, limiting our conclusions. Rates of high myopia and ocular abnormalities do not differ from those reported after larger bevacizumab doses.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Low-dose and very low-dose intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) have been reported to be successful in short-term treatment of type 1 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), down to an initial dose of 0.004 mg. We now report 12-month outcomes for these infants. DESIGN: Masked, multicenter, dose de-escalation study. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred twenty prematurely born infants with type 1 ROP. METHODS: A cohort of 120 infants with type 1 ROP in at least 1 eye from 2 sequential dose de-escalation studies of low-dose IVB (0.25 mg, 0.125 mg, 0.063 mg, and 0.031 mg) or very low-dose IVB (0.016 mg, 0.008 mg, 0.004 mg, and 0.002 mg) to the study eye; the fellow eye (if also type 1) received 1 dose level higher of IVB. After primary success or failure at 4 weeks, clinical management was at investigator discretion, including all additional treatment. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Reactivation of severe ROP by 6 months corrected age, additional treatments, retinal and other ocular structural outcomes, and refractive error at 12 months corrected age. RESULTS: Sixty-two of 113 study eyes (55%) and 55 of 98 fellow eyes (56%) received additional treatment. Of the study eyes, 31 (27%) received additional ROP treatment, and 31 (27%) received prophylactic laser therapy for persistent avascular retina. No trend toward a higher risk of additional ROP treatment related to initial IVB doses was found. However, time to reactivation among study eyes was shorter in eyes that received very low-dose IVB (mean, 76.4 days) than in those that received low-dose IVB (mean, 85.7 days). At 12 months, poor retinal outcomes and anterior segment abnormalities both were uncommon (3% and 5%, respectively), optic atrophy was noted in 10%, median refraction was mildly myopic (-0.31 diopter), and strabismus was present in 29% of infants. CONCLUSIONS: Retinal structural outcomes were very good after low- and very low-dose IVB as initial treatment for type 1 ROP, although many eyes received additional treatment. The rate of reactivation of severe ROP was not associated with dose; however, a post hoc data-driven analysis suggested that reactivation was sooner with very low doses.

RESUMO

SIGNIFICANCE: A rigorously designed and calibrated symptom questionnaire for childhood intermittent exotropia would be useful for clinical care and for research. PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to Rasch-calibrate and evaluate the previously developed Child Intermittent Exotropia Symptom Questionnaire using data gathered as part of a randomized clinical trial. METHODS: The questionnaire was administered to 386 children aged 3 to 10 years with intermittent exotropia who were enrolled in a randomized clinical trial comparing overminus with nonoverminus spectacles. Participants were followed at 6 and 12 months while on treatment and at 18 months off treatment. Factor analysis determined dimensionality, and Rasch analysis evaluated questionnaire performance. Logit values were converted to 0 (best) to 100 (worst). We evaluated differences in questionnaire scores between treatment groups and time points, and correlations with control scores. RESULTS: The Child Intermittent Exotropia Symptom Questionnaire was unidimensional. Rasch analysis indicated that there was no notable local dependence and no significant differential item functioning for sex or age. There was suboptimal targeting (mean logit, -1.62), and person separation was somewhat poor (0.95). There were no significant differences in the Child Intermittent Exotropia Symptom score between overminus spectacles and nonoverminus spectacles at 6, 12, and 18 months. Combining data from both treatment groups, there was significant improvement from baseline at all follow-up visits (e.g., mean change from baseline to 12 months, -6.6 points; 95% confidence interval, -8.6 to -4.6). Child Intermittent Exotropia Symptom scores were not correlated with distance or near control scores at 12 months. CONCLUSIONS: The seven-item Rasch-scored Child Intermittent Exotropia Symptom Questionnaire is limited by suboptimal performance. Future study is needed to determine whether it may be useful for clinical practice and for research.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To investigate health-related quality of life (HRQOL) after strabismus surgery in children with intermittent exotropia (IXT) and relationships between HRQOL and surgical success. METHODS: A total of 197 children with IXT aged 3-11 years (and 1 parent of each child) were enrolled in a previously reported randomized clinical trial comparing two surgical procedures. The Intermittent Exotropia Questionnaire (IXTQ) was administered before surgery (baseline), and again at 6 and 36 months following surgery. The child version of the IXTQ was only completed by children 5-11 years of age (n = 123). Outcomes were classified as "resolved" (exodeviation of <10Δ, no decreased stereoacuity, and no other nonsurgical treatment for IXT or reoperation), "suboptimal" (exotropia ≥10Δ by simultaneous prism and cover test or constant esotropia ≥6Δ or loss of ≥2 octaves of stereoacuity), or "intermediate." Mean changes in Rasch-calibrated IXTQ domain scores (Child, Proxy, Parent-psychosocial, Parent-function, and Parent-surgery; converted to a 0-100 scale) were compared. RESULTS: Overall, mean IXTQ domain scores improved for all domains from baseline to 36 months after surgery, ranging from 10.7 points (Child IXTQ; P < 0.0001) to 34.5 points (Parent-surgery IXTQ; P < 0.0001). At 36 months after surgery, 62 (39%) children had resolved IXT, whereas 38 (24%) had suboptimal outcome. Greater improvement was found in all mean domain scores with resolved IXT (range, 19.8-46.0 points) compared with suboptimal outcome (all comparisons P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Successful surgery for childhood IXT results in measurable improvement in a child's quality of life, in parental assessment of the child's quality of life, and in quality of life for the parent.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To determine whether health-related quality of life (HRQOL) scores improved or worsened over 3 years of observation in childhood intermittent exotropia without treatment. METHODS: A total of 111 children aged 3-11 years with intermittent exotropia were assigned to observation in a previously reported randomized trial comparing patching with observation. The intermittent exotropia questionnaire (IXTQ) was administered at baseline, 6 months, and 36 months. Rasch-calibrated IXTQ domain scores (Child, Proxy, Parent-psychosocial, Parent-function, and Parent-surgery) were compared between time points. The Child IXTQ was administered only to children ≥5 years of age (n = 78). RESULTS: Overall, Child IXTQ and Proxy IXTQ scores showed no significant change over 36 months (mean improvement from baseline to 36 months of 3.2 points [95% CI, -1.9 to 8.2] and -2.4 points [95% CI: -7.9 to 3.1], resp.). By contrast, Parent-psychosocial, Parent-function, and Parent-surgery domain scores all improved over 36 months (mean improvements of 12.8 points [95% CI, 5.9-19.6] and 14.2 points [95% CI, 8.0-20.3] and 18.5 points [95% CI, 9.7-27.3], resp.). CONCLUSIONS: HRQOL of children with intermittent exotropia remains stable with observation over 3 years (by both child and proxy report), whereas parental HRQOL improves.

RESUMO

IMPORTANCE: This is the first large-scale randomized clinical trial evaluating the effectiveness and safety of overminus spectacle therapy for treatment of intermittent exotropia (IXT). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of overminus spectacles to improve distance IXT control. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This randomized clinical trial conducted at 56 clinical sites between January 2017 and January 2019 associated with the Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group enrolled 386 children aged 3 to 10 years with IXT, a mean distance control score of 2 or worse, and a refractive error between 1.00 and -6.00 diopters (D). Data analysis was performed from February to December 2020. INTERVENTIONS: Participants were randomly assigned to overminus spectacle therapy (-2.50 D for 12 months, then -1.25 D for 3 months, followed by nonoverminus spectacles for 3 months) or to nonoverminus spectacle use. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Primary and secondary outcomes were the mean distance IXT control scores of participants examined after 12 months of treatment (primary outcome) and at 18 months (3 months after treatment ended) assessed by an examiner masked to treatment group. Change in refractive error from baseline to 12 months was compared between groups. Analyses were performed using the intention-to-treat population. RESULTS: The mean (SD) age of 196 participants randomized to overminus therapy and 190 participants randomized to nonoverminus treatment was 6.3 (2.1) years, and 226 (59%) were female. Mean distance control at 12 months was better in participants treated with overminus spectacles than with nonoverminus spectacles (1.8 vs 2.8 points; adjusted difference, -0.8; 95% CI, -1.0 to -0.5; P < .001). At 18 months, there was little or no difference in mean distance control between overminus and nonoverminus groups (2.4 vs 2.7 points; adjusted difference, -0.2; 95% CI, -0.5 to 0.04; P = .09). Myopic shift from baseline to 12 months was greater in the overminus than the nonoverminus group (-0.42 D vs -0.04 D; adjusted difference, -0.37 D; 95% CI, -0.49 to -0.26 D; P < .001), with 33 of 189 children (17%) in the overminus group vs 2 of 169 (1%) in the nonoverminus group having a shift higher than 1.00 D. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Children 3 to 10 years of age had improved distance exotropia control when assessed wearing overminus spectacles after 12 months of overminus treatment; however, this treatment was associated with increased myopic shift. The beneficial effect of overminus lens therapy on distance exotropia control was not maintained after treatment was tapered off for 3 months and children were examined 3 months later.
