  • Title: [Diagnosis and treatment of ophthalmoplegia].
    Author: Kaufmann H.
    Journal: Klin Oczna; 1990 Dec; 92(11-12):207-11. PubMed ID: 2090860.
    Abstract:
    The author discusses the signs and symptoms appearing in the course of so called noncommittant squints. Noncommittant squints are divided into squints caused by paresis or by a total paralysis of the motor muscles. One can divide the therapeutical procedure into the conservative and surgical treatment. The conservative treatment is carried out for one year since the onset of the palsy. After 12 months in the case of a lack of improvement a surgical intervention is performed. Surgical operations are divided into 3 types: 1) Rotation of the eye, that is to say operation of a recession-resection type--on the affected eye, 2) the principle paresis-counter-paresis or interventions performed on the muscles of the healthy eye, 3) transpositions of the muscles.
