RCT to detect palpebral fissure changes after horizontal strabismus surgery

The aim of this prospective randomised controlled trial was to compare changes of vertical palpebral fissure h8 after bilateral lateral rectus (BLR) recession vs unilateral lateral rectus recession/medial rectus muscle scleral plication (RRP) for treatment of intermittent exotropia (IXT). Forty...

Use of reduced volume BT as a treatment option for acute onset comitant esotropia

In this study, the effectiveness and safety of botulinum toxin (BT) for patients with acute acquired comitant esotropia (AACE) and deviation ≤25PD was investigated with comparison of results to conservative prism therapy. Botulinum toxin was undertaken without electromyographic guidance and...

Orthokeratology lens treatment for exophoria of convergence insufficiency type

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of orthokeratology (OK) lenses with an increased comparison factor (ICF) of 1.75D in the treatment convergence insufficiency (CI) exophoria (EP). This was a prospective, self-controlled study of 60 eyes (30...

Short-term effects of atropine measured by OCTA for myopia progression
