Overview

Strabismus is a condition in which the eyes are misaligned and do not point in the same direction simultaneously, affecting binocular vision and depth perception. Research published in Ophthalmic Science addresses multiple aspects of strabismus detection and related ocular alignment disorders across different populations and clinical settings. Studies have examined photorefraction devices as screening tools, investigating how patient characteristics including race, age, and pupil size influence measurement accuracy for detecting refractive errors and potential strabismus in pediatric populations. The journal has also explored innovative approaches to eye examination through virtual world technology as a pilot investigation. Additionally, published work has documented complex ophthalmoplegia cases involving disrupted eye movement coordination due to neurological causes, contributing to understanding of acquired forms of ocular misalignment in older adults. Research on pediatric eye conditions, including retinopathy of prematurity screening by ophthalmology residents, relates to the broader context of early detection of visual disorders that may coexist with or lead to strabismus. This topic matters because early identification and appropriate management of strabismus and related alignment disorders are essential for preventing amblyopia, preserving binocular vision, and maintaining quality of life across all age groups.
