A clinical analysis of the operation therapy for the intermittent exotropia

Objective To investigate the relationship between preoperative fusion,age of onset,degree of strabismus,age of operation and postoperative outcome.Methods The preoperative fusion,age of onset and operation,binocular vision function,and the postoperative position of eye and stereopsis in 119 cases of intermittent exotropia were analyzed statistically.Results With and without fusion and stereopsis was significant for intermittent exotropia,and age of operation may had a role.Conclusions Postoperation outcome may be dependent on the age of onset and with or without fusion and stcreopsis,which is significant for binocular function to be cured.
