20 Years observations on operated Intermittent Exotropia.

Two years results of unilateral lateral rectus recession on moderate intermittent exotropia

BACKGROUND: This survey was performed to determine the effect of unilateral lateral rectus recession in treatment of moderate angle intermittent exotropia. However, this type of operation and its long term results in patients with moderate angle exotropia have not yet been studied in Iran. METHODS: Forty patients with basic type intermittent exotropia with moderate angle deviation (25-30∆D) wer...

Incomitance and Eye Dominance in Intermittent Exotropia

Purpose To determine if the deviation angle changes in subjects with intermittent exotropia as they alternate fixation between the right and left eye in primary gaze. Methods In this prospective observational cohort study, 37 subjects with intermittent exotropia were tested for evidence of incomitance. The position of each eye was recorded with a video tracker during fixation on a small centr...

Variability of stereoacuity in intermittent exotropia.

PURPOSE Distance stereoacuity is used to monitor deterioration of intermittent exotropia (IXT), but variability of stereoacuity has not been studied rigorously. The purpose of this study was to assess the variability of stereoacuity over one day in children with IXT. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS Twelve children with IXT were recruited. Stereoacuity was assessed using the Frisby ...

Suppression and retinal correspondence in intermittent exotropia.

Suppression scotomas and retinal projection (retinal correspondence) were measured in six intermittent exotropes during deviation. Measurements used red-green anaglyph stimuli presented on a black background which could be varied from 3.4 minutes of arc to 3 degrees 24'. Results showed non-suppression of all points between the fovea and the diplopia point. Harmonious anomalous retinal correspon...
