Item Macular Imaging Characteristics in Children with Myelinated Retinal Nerve Fiber and High Myopia Syndrome(2023) Sezenoz, Almila Sarigul; Oto, Sibel; Akkoyun, Imren; Bayar, Sezin Akca; Yilmaz, Gursel; Colak, Meric Yavuz; 0000-0003-0171-4200; 0000-0002-2860-7424; 0000-0001-5109-755X; 0000-0002-7030-5454; 0000-0002-0294-6874; 37602641; AAJ-4668-2021; AAK-7713-2021; AAJ-2406-2021; AAJ-4860-2021; AAA-4360-2021Objectives: To investigate the macular imaging features in patients with unilateral myelinated retinal nerve fiber (MRNF) and high myopia syndrome. Materials and Methods: Six patients with unilateral MRNF and high myopia syndrome and 13 myopic controls were enrolled in this study. Spectral domain (SD) optical coherence tomography (OCT), SD enhanced depth imaging OCT, and OCT angiography (OCTA) imaging results of MRNF-affected eyes were compared with the fellow eyes and myopic controls. Results: All patients had abnormal foveal reflex and/or ectopia. No significant difference in retinal thickness parameters were noted between the groups. In OCT scans, posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) was observed in 4 out of the 6 MRNF-affected eyes. Regarding OCTA parameters, only a significant increase in acircularity index was noted in myelinated eyes (p=0.01). Conclusion: All patients demonstrated normal foveal contours, macular structure, and OCTA features except for a higher acircularity index. The incidence of PVD was notably increased in the myelinated eyes.Item The Role of Heredity and the Prevalence of Strabismus in Families with Accommodative, Partial Accommodative, and Infantile Esotropia(2020) Eroglu, Fatma Corak; Oto, Sibel; Sahin, Feride Iffet; Terzi, Yunus; Kaya, Ozge Ozer; Tekindal, Mustafa Agah; 0000-0003-0171-4200; 0000-0001-7308-9673; 0000-0001-5612-9696; 32631000; AAJ-4668-2021; AAC-7232-2020; B-4372-2018Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of strabismus in families of a proband with accommodative, partial accommodative, or infantile esotropia, and to evaluate the mode of inheritance and the role of consanguineous marriages in this prevalence. Materials and Methods: Families of probands with comitant strabismus were invited to participate in the study. The family members of 139 subjects with accommodative, 55 with partial accommodative, and 21 with infantile esotropia agreed to participate. Detailed family trees were constructed. The first- and second-degree relatives were invited for a complete ophthalmological examination, and 518 individuals from 168 families were evaluated. The role of consanguinity, the presence of tropia, phoria (>= 8 PD), microtropia, and hypermetropia (>= 3.00 D) among first- and second-degree relatives were analyzed. Results: A non-Mendelian pattern was found in 49 families (23%), an autosomal dominant pattern in 39 families (18%), and an autosomal recessive pattern in 6 families (3%). The prevalence of consanguineous marriages among parents of probands was 18.1%, 22.6%, and 14.3% in the accommodative, partial accommodative, and infantile esotropia groups, respectively (p=0.652). The prevalence of strabismus in first-degree relatives was 58.9%, 45.5%, and 38.1%, respectively (p=0.07). The prevalence of microtropia in probands' siblings was significantly higher in the accommodative esotropia group (p=0.034). Conclusion: Sporadic cases and non-Mendelian inheritance were more frequent than autosomal recessive inheritance. Autosomal recessive inheritance was found not to be frequent in consanguineous marriages. The prevalence of strabismus and microtropia was significantly higher in families of esotropia cases than in the general population.Item Simple limbal epithelial transplantation (SLET) in a patient with limbal stem cell deficiency.(2019) Asena, Leyla; Altinors, Dilek Dursun; Oto, SibelItem A Case of Multiple Sclerosis Presented with 5th, 6th and 7th Cranial Nerve Paralysis(2015) Sarıgul, Almila; Bayar, Sezin Akca; Singar, Evin; Pinarci, Eylem Yaman; Oto, SibelA 36-year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with complaints of numbness in hands, double vision, and inability to close her left eye. Her physical examination revealed horizontal diplopia, underactivity of the left lateral rectus muscle, left peripheral facial paralysis, and trigeminal sensorial neuropathy. The magnetic resonance imaging revealed hyperintense lesions, which were compatible with multiple sclerosis (MS). Therefore, systemic steroid treatment (1000 mg/day intravenous methylprednisolone for 5 days, 1 mg/kg/day oral prednisolone, reduced slowly) was administered to the patient. Within five weeks, her symptoms were regressed, and no recurrence was observed during the follow-up period of 4 years. As this case proves, MS can present with cranial nerve palsies in addition to many other different neurological symptoms. Although 5th nerve palsy is the most common cranial nerve palsy detected in MS patients, 7th and 6th nerve involvement are rarely reported in the literature. MS should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of cranial nerve palsies especially in young patients.Item Contrast Sensitivity in Microtropic and Anisometropic Eyes of Successfully Treated Amblyopes(2017) Bayar, Sezin Akca; Oner, Ozlem; Oto, Sibel; Gokmen, Onur; Tekindal, Mustafa Agah; 0000-0003-0171-4200; 0000-0002-6058-4226; 0000-0002-4060-7048; 0000-0001-5109-755X; 28405480; AAJ-4668-2021; AAB-1096-2021; U-9270-2018; AAJ-2406-2021Objectives: To assess and compare contrast sensitivity function in the previously amblyopic and non-amblyopic "normal" eyes of patients with microtropia and anisometropia who achieved 20/20 visual acuity after occlusion therapy. Materials and Methods: Contrast sensitivity was tested monocularly on both eyes of 34 successfully treated microtropic and 15 anisometropic subjects (visual acuity 20/20 in both eyes). Contrast sensitivity function was evaluated by CSV-1000E and age-matched nomograms were used (spatial frequencies of 3, 6, 12, and 18 cycles per degree [cpd]) for comparison. Results: The mean age of subjects was 11.2 +/- 1.3 years in the microtropic group, 9.8 +/- 1.7 years in the anisometropic group (7-12 years); the mean follow-up time was 16.4 +/- 3.2 months (12 to 92) in the microtropic group and 27.7 +/- 1.8 months (12-84) in the anisometropic group. Statistical comparison of the microtropic amblyopic eyes versus non-microtropic eyes showed significant differences at spatial frequencies of 3, 12 and 18 cpd (3 cpd, t= 2.8, p= 0.007; 6 cpd, t= 1.1 p= 0.261; 12 cpd, t= 2.2, p= 0.033; 18 cpd, t= 2.2, p= 0.030). When anisometropic eyes were compared with non-anisometropic eyes, there was a significant difference only at 12 cpd (t= 2.1 p= 0.049). The comparison of non-amblyopic eyes versus age-matched nomograms revealed no differences at any of the spatial frequencies (p> 0.05 for all). Conclusion: Contrast sensitivity was decreased in patients with amblyopia, especially in the microtropic group. The assessment of contrast sensitivity function may serve as a new parameter for termination of occlusion therapy.
