Strabismus Measurements Using Automated 3D Video Oculography
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Measuring ocular motility and alignment is important for diagnosing different causes of strabismus, following patients recovering from cranial nerve palsies, preparing patients for strabismus surgery and follow-up post surgery. The current clinical gold standards for measuring ocular alignment are the Hess screen and the Harms tangent screen. These tests are accurate, but require patient cooperation, and are not objective because the patient has to indicate the position of the light he sees on the screen. Our objective is to develop an accurate and easy to use goggles system to measure ocular alignment and motility using 3D video oculography.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Validation of video goggles against Hess/Harms screen [initial visit]
Measurement of squint angle with 3D video goggles vs. Hess/Harms screen.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Accuracy of video goggles in comparison to scleral search coils [initial visit]
Measurement of squint angle with 3D video goggles vs. scleral search coils.
Other Outcome Measures
- Follow-up squint angle measures post-OP and after recovery from cranial nerve palsy with 3D video goggles and Hess/Harms screen [initial visit, 3 months after surgery, recovery from cranial nerve palsy after 3 months]
Change in squint angle with 3D video goggles and Hess/Harms screen.
