This evaluation of data from the population-based Olmsted County study describes the rate and types of strabismus in 107 children diagnosed with ptosis during a 40-year period. Strabismus occurred in nearly 1 in 5 patients with any form of childhood ptosis. Strabismus affected approximately 1 in 10 patients diagnosed with simple congenital ptosis, with a predominance of isolated horizontal deviations equally divided between esotropia and exotropia.

This systematic review and comprehensive meta-analysis finds that hypertension and increased systolic and diastolic blood pressure were consistently associated with increased IOP across published studies. Hypertension was also positively associated with the risk of primary open-angle glaucoma, although the association was significant in cross-sectional but not in case-control or longitudinal studies.
