Long-term Clinical Outcomes of Patients with Infantile and Refractive Accommodative Esotropia

Purpose: To compare the long-term clinical outcomes of patients with refractive accommodative esotropia (RAET) and infantile (IET).Methods: The medical records RAET IET who were followed-up for more than 36 months retrospectively analyzed. prescribed spectacles to correct cycloplegic refraction those underwent bilateral, medial rectus recession. Visual acuity, refraction, angle esodeviation at far near distances, near-stereopsis measured each visit. divided into two groups by time surgery (before after 24 age). Patients in both reoperations diagnosis partially (PAET) recurrent during follow-up analyzed.Results: Sixty-nine (40 29 IET) included. period was 69.48 ± 28.41 months. At final visit, angles 2.82 5.46 prism diopters (PD) group 9.28 8.37 PD (<i>p</i> < 0.01). In before age, 4.62 5.25 13.06 8.63 median values 60 140 arcsec visit 0.01, 0.03). Seven (17.5%) group, 2 (15.4%) 10 (62.5%) required 0.01).Conclusions: age exhibited better alignment stereopsis later reoperation rate lower.
