The many enigmas of intermittent exotropia

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
The Squint Club, a group of ophthalmologists with strabismus expertise, meets once a year to discuss difficult and unique clinical cases, new ideas about treatment and unique notions of pathophysiology regarding various disorders of ocular motor alignment. It was therefore surprising and noteworthy when several years ago at this meeting the late Arthur

Intermittent Exotropia: Is Surgery Necessary?

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1981
SUMMARY Sixty cases of intermittent exotropia were studied to compare the outcome of those patients treated medically with the outcome of those patients treated surgically. Below 30 prism diopters of intermittent exotropia, there is a high functional cure rate in both groups.

Management of Intermittent Exotropia

American Orthoptic Journal, 1984
NTERMITTENT EXOTROPIA can be one I of the most frustrating types of strabismus to treat, or it can be one of the most satisfying. We must realize that no matter how ideal the surgery, approximately 40% to 45% of the cases will be immediately undercorrected or will recur in time and require further treatment.

The Surgical Overcorrection of Intermittent Exotropia

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 1990
ABSTRACT Many strabismus surgeons recommend an initial surgical overcorrection for intermittent exotropia. Others caution against overcorrection because of possible nasal suppression and amblyopia in children, or because of possible diplopia in adults.

Binocularity and Photophobia in Intermittent Exotropia

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1992
The relationship between photophobia and binocular function in intermittent exotropia was examined in 42 subjects (21 patients and 21 controls). In all subjects fusional amplitude and strength of binocular sensory status were tested before and during exposure to bright light.

Some Observations on Intermittent Exotropia

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1965
The termintermittent exotropiais usually reserved to designate that type of oculomotor anomaly in which the two eyes appear for the most part to be well coordinated, yet for some unknown reason, one eye may suddenly turn out, often through a rather large angle.

[The progress of intermittent exotropia].

[Zhonghua yan ke za zhi] Chinese journal of ophthalmology, 2011
Intermittent exotropia is a type of strabismus between exophoria and constant exotropia. The onset age is usually one to four years old. Different from other types of strabismus, intermittent exotropia patient can maintain normal binocular vision in a long period of time.

Correction of Hyperopia in Intermittent Exotropia

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 2011
Therapeutic options for the management of the early phase of intermittent exotropia are limited. The correction of seemingly insignificant refractive errors might result in better control of the deviation. Patients with hyperopia present an interesting dilemma.

Squinting and Photophobia in Intermittent Exotropia

Optometry and Vision Science, 2014
To report factors associated with preoperative squinting, defined as transient eye closure in bright light, and photophobia and the factors affecting improvement of these symptoms postoperatively in intermittent exotropia.In this retrospective study, patients (N = 99) were divided into groups according to the presence (n = 54) or absence (n = 45) of ...
