Filter by:A novel dynamic random-dot stereopsis test that included motion + disparity (MD), motion (M), and disparity (D), in which the disparity cues range from 200 to 1200 arc-seconds was used. The characteristics of preoperative dynamic stereopsis in 83 intermittent exotropia patients and its associations with clinical features were analysed, and the prognosis was followed up on the 1st day and 2nd, 6th and 12nd months postoperatively.
This is a multi-center, randomized single-blind controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of S-BLR with C-BLR for the treatment of CI-IXT in children. Specific Aim 1 (Primary): To compare the surgical successful rate of S-BLR with C-BLR for the treatment of CI-IXT in children. Specific Aim 2 (Secondary): To study the suboptimal surgical outcomes between S-BLR and C-BLR for the treatment of CI-IXT in children.
The objective of this short-term, pilot randomized trial comparing spectacles with relieving prism to spectacles without prism is to determine whether to proceed to a full-scale, longer-term randomized trial. This decision will be based primarily on assessing the initial (8-week) response to prism by comparing treatment groups on the following outcomes: - Mean distance intermittent exotropia (IXT) control score (the mean of 3 control scores) (primary outcome) - The proportion of participants demonstrating a "treatment response," defined as ≥1 point improvement in the mean distance IXT control score without spontaneous exotropia during control testing (secondary outcome) - The proportion of participants reporting adverse effects and good/excellent spectacle wear compliance
In this prospective study, entitled "The Long-Term Efficacy of Overminus Lens Therapy in Intermittent Exotropia",the investigators examined the long-term impact of overminus lenses on the management of intermittent exotropia (IXT), treatment effect after overminus treatment has been discontinued and also investigated if overminus lenses cause myopia in long-term.
Purpose: To determine the surgical outcomes of the plication technique in comparison with the resection method on exotropic patients. Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, a total of 52 exotropic patients (female, 51.9%) who are candidate for medial rectus strengthening will be randomly classified into plication (n=24) and resection (n=28) groups. The comprehensive visual and ocular examinations will be performed on all study subjects and they will be followed- up for three months postoperatively. Plication technique is the same as resection up to muscle suturing, in the next step, the sutures are passed through 2 scleral bites at 1 mm anterior to the muscle insertion, then the muscle was folded toward inside or outside by pulling and joining the sutures.
Intermittent exotropia is the most common type of exotropia in children. Treatment options are surgical and non surgical. Nonsurgical management include Correction of refractive errors, Active orthoptic treatments, Prisms and Occlusion therapy. Benefits of patch therapy are limiting suppression, reducing the frequency and amplitude of the deviation, changing the nature of the deviation (from constant to intermittent exotropia or from intermittent exotropia to exophoria), however, there is a concern that occlusion of the eyes may cause fusion failure and worsen deviation control. According to a few number of studies and controversy among the results of investigations, the investigators designed this randomized clinical trial study to determine the effect of partial patch therapy on the deviation control of children with intermittent exotropia.
In childhood strabismus, exotropia is most frequently seen with intermittent exotropia and convergence failure in the first decade of life. This situation adversely affects children's psychosocial development and creates worries about personal relationships and work life in their future lives. Patients' hesitant attitudes towards surgical treatment led to the out-of-surgery techniques such as exercise therapy. No studies have been found in the literature on the efficancy of the intermittent exotropia treatments with oculo-motor exercises. In our study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of oculo-motor exercises on intermittent exotropia in children.
Fifteen subjects with intermittent exotropia were included. The subjects were asked to fixate on a black-on-white optotype at 1 m, which subtended a visual angle of 50 min of arc, equating to a Snellen optotype of 20/200. The video files and data about ocular deviations were obtained using VOG with alternate cover test. Investigators analyzed angles of ocular deviations in dominant and non-dominant eyes, compared with values of VOG and deviation angles of the alternative prism cover test.
This pilot study is designed specifically to determine the short-term effect of OBVAT on intermittent exotropia in terms of 4 key areas (Standardizing reported outcomes of surgery for intermittent exotropia): control score, alignment, near stereoacuity and quality of life score. Result of this pilot study will be used to determine whether a full-scale RCT should be conducted to evaluate the short and long term effectiveness of OBVAT.
To evaluate preoperative risk factors for overcorrection and undercorrection following surgery for basic intermittent exotropia such as axial length of the globe, refractive error, age and sex
