Consecutive Surgical Esotropia.

The Clinical Course of Consecutive Esotropia after Surgical Correction

PURPOSE To investigate the clinical course in patients who underwent surgical correction of consecutive esotropia. METHODS The medical records of 13 patients who underwent surgical correction of consecutive esotropia were reviewed retrospectively. The authors investigated the deviation and surgical method at the time of exotropia surgery. During the follow up period, the authors also studied ...

Consecutive exotropia following surgically corrected cyclic esotropia.

INTRODUCTION Cyclic esotropia is a rare form of strabismus consisting of regular intervals of esotropia alternating with periods of orthophoria in a rhythmic/cyclic manner. In the vast majority of cases, surgery appears to permanently correct the esotropia, with no sequelae after years of follow-up. We report a case of consecutive exotropia in a patient five years after bilateral medial rectus ...

Consecutive esotropia following surgery for intermittent exotropia.

Surgical treatment of residual esotropia.

Residual esotropia is a common problem following bilateral medial rectus (MR) recessions for esotropia. The patient was 30 years old men who underwent bilateral MR recession of both eyes in the childhood. Recession was repeated on the right eye few years after the first surgery, but residual esotropia progressed. Prior to our surgery residual angle of esotropia was 50PD degrees with restriction...

Consecutive Esotropia in Intermittent Esotropia Patients with Immediate Postoperative Overcorrection More Than 17 Prism Diopters

PURPOSE To report the incidence and the factors of consecutive esotropia (ET) in patients with immediate postoperative overcorrection of at least 17 prism diopters (PD) after surgery for intermittent exotropia (X(T)). METHODS Four-hundred-five patients under the age of 18 were included in this study. They underwent bilateral lateral rectus recession (LROU-rec) or unilateral recession-resectio...
