Dear Patient and Family,

With a mixture of sadness and gratitude, I announce the closing of my practice after 45 wonderful years in Pediatric Ophthalmology and Adult Eye Muscle Specialty. As of August 30, 2024, I will be retiring.

Serving as your eye doctor has been an immense privilege and honor. Over the years, I have had the joy of building relationships with so many of you and being a part of your lives. I am incredibly grateful, humbled, and appreciative that you have allowed me to be part of your life’s journey, just as you have been a part of mine. Each day of my career has been a unique opportunity to touch lives in ways that have brought me immense joy. I will treasure these memories forever.

I have thoroughly enjoyed living and working in Cincinnati since founding the Department of Pediatric Ophthalmology at Children’s Hospital in July 1979. However, I am now an empty nester. My wife Barbara (who you may know as my "Do-Everything" office manager) and I have two sons and six grandchildren, all of whom reside in
Florida. We are looking forward to moving there and spending much more time with our family.

As my practice closes, I understand the importance of finding a new pediatric ophthalmologist. While it will be up to you to connect with a provider of your choice, I can recommend the following options:

Saying goodbye is never easy. I want to thank you once again for the trust you placed in me throughout the years. I wish you all the best for your future health and happiness.

Warm regards,
Miles J. Burke, M.D.

What Is A Sensory Motor Evaluation?

Sensory means how the eyes perceive the vision and how the brain utilizes this visually acquired information. Motor refers to how each of the eye’s 6 extraocular muscles controls the eye movements and how they are coordinated with the other eye.

The sensory motor evaluation is a special ophthalmologic procedure that may be performed in addition to the complete eye examination. Pediatric ophthalmologists perform this procedure often because we are specialists in strabismus. Strabismus refers to those states of the eyes when they are not properly aligned. A sensory motor examination consists of multiple measurements of the ocular alignment positions and may include tests of fusion and binocular (3D) vision.

A sensory motor evaluation detects, assesses, monitors, and/or manages strabismic conditions including esotropia, exotropia, and hypertropia. These conditions can have important visual, developmental, and/or systemic implications. The sensory motor evaluation is necessary to diagnose strabismus, in follow-up to detect improvement or progression in the strabismic condition, and also to determine whether optical correction is affecting the strabismic condition. Information from the sensory motor examination is used to plan medical, optical, and surgical treatments.

As with all special ophthalmologic procedures, this procedure is billed separately from the overall examination.
