Dr. Burdick reports that a Dr. Marsh afterexperimenting with the ic-ray, observed that his eye-sight improved so much that glasses, previouslyworn, were dispensed with. AMBLYOPIA EXANOPSIA. 355 HIGH MYOPIA. March, 1911. Mrs. M., aged 48. High myopia,floating bodies in the vitreous, disseminated atro-phic choroiditis. Complains of considerable painin her eyes. After four weeks of galvanism to the eyes daily,she says the pain has been very much relieved andher sight improved, but testing shows the same vis-ion = 20 Pig. 106.—De Zeng Electric Retinoscope. AMBLYOPIA EXANOPSIA AND STRABISMUS. Notwithstanding the contention of Schweigger,in 1883, and his followers, that the amblyopia ofstrabismus is congenital, I believe that it is due tothe non-fixation of the eye, or the so called amblyo-pia exanopsia. For, in patients under twenty-oneyears of age, vision is improved by operation inninety per cent, of the cases. 1. January 12/10. Mrs. H. J. E., aged amblyopia exanopsia, or, congenital amblyo-pia. The right eye has been operated on for conver-gent strabismus. Vision E. E. = 20/50, with + L. E. =20/50 with + + at 105°. ^.
