这篇论文讨论了在曼彻斯特皇家眼科医院和索尔福德卫生部眼科诊所诊断的儿童斜视，讨论了一些与斜视有关的人口统计学和社会因素，特别是与非中心观看有关的因素。它也证实了Scully和Naylor（1961）的观察结果——即，非中心观察经常发生（在大约220/0的斜视病例中）；它在年龄较小的儿童中更为普遍，特别是在那些长期未得到治疗的儿童中；这在高度屈光参差的儿童中很常见。我们现在对这些相互关系的估计更有信心，因为我们能够提供更大的病例样本。非中心注视在男孩中更为常见；并讨论了斜视、发病季节和近期感染之间的可能联系。
This paper deals with squint in children diagnosed in two clinics-the Manchester Royal Eye Hospital and the Ophthal-mic Clinic of the Health Department, Salford-discusses some demographic and social factors associatedwith squint and particularly withnon-central viewing. It also confirms the observations of Scully and Naylor (1961)-namely, that non-central viewing occurs frequently (in about 220/0 of cases of squint); that it is more prevalent in younger children, parti-cularly in those who have remained untreated for long periods; and that it appears very commonly in children with a high degree of anisometropia. We are now more confident about the estimates of these interrelationships because of the larger sample of cases we are able to present. Non-central viewing is shown to be more common in boys; and the possible associations between squint, season of onset, and recent infection are discussed.
