Faden operation in consecutive esotropia

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 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...

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 ...

Management of nonresolving consecutive exotropia following botulinum toxin treatment of childhood esotropia.

OBJECTIVE To study motor and sensory results of surgery for exotropia following botulinum toxin A injection to correct childhood esotropia. METHODS The medical records of 2445 patients treated with botulinum toxin bimedial injection were retrospectively reviewed to select patients operated on after 1 year of consecutive exotropia. We recorded age at onset of deviation, retinoscopic refractive...
