Convergence insufficiencySurgery proceduresMerits and demeritsDeficiency of of prior researchIntermittent exotropia with convergence insufficiency is defined as a greater exodeviation measured at near than at distance of at least 10 prism diopters and it is harmful to binocular vision at earlier time. ...
Aim: To examine the association of distance-near disparity with neurological disease in children with intermittent exotropia.Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of the medical records of all children with intermittent exotropia examined at the Arkansas Children’s Hospital between 1989...
Objective:To investigate the time and postoperative binocular vision of strabismus surgery for children with inter- mittent exotropia(X(T).Methods:A retrospective investigation was conducted in 80 child patients with intermittent exotropia....
One of the few studies following the progression of myopia (near sightedness) in children with intermittent exotropia, researchers determined that the rate of developing myopia in this population was 7.4% by 5 years of age, 46.5% by 10 years, and 91.1% by 20 y...
at near and distance was also measured. The total fusional convergence amplitude at near was calculated by adding the fusional reserve at near with the angle of deviation at near. The total fusional convergence amplitude for distance was calculated by adding the fusional reserve at distance with ...
Twenty-five participants with intermittent exotropia underwent near and distance measurement before and after 45 minutes of occlusion. The near angle was also measured through +3.00 D lenses, and using 2 different sized targets, an N60-equivalent “butterfly” picture and N5 print. The gradient ...
near point of convergence (NPC), accommodative convergence/accommodation (AC/A) ratio, fusional vergence amplitude (FVA), and intraocular pressure (IOP) were evaluated at each follow-up visit, whereas cycloplegic spherical equivalent and corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) were measured every 6 ...
Objective infrared recording devices were used to measure simultaneously and continuously both accommodation and accommodative vergence to near stimuli in 4 subjects with intermittent exotropia of the divergence-excess type (2 simulated and 2 true). In addition standard clinically determined stimulus accommo...
intermittent exotropia should be based on the largest angle ever measured.Prospective case series of 33 patients.A total of 33 patients with intermittent exotropia, in whom angles of misalignment at distance or near showed a difference of 15 prism diopters (PD) or more among visits, were ...
