Lateral rectus muscle recession and the vertical palpebral fissure height: to do or not to do inter-muscular septum dissection? [PDF]
International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018 In this study, we aimed to evaluate changes of vertical palpebral fissure height (VPFH) after unilateral lateral rectus muscle recession. Twenty-five and twenty-six patients who were candidates for lateral rectus muscle recession were assigned into “with”

Unilateral medial rectus muscle recession combined lateral rectus muscle marginal myotomy for the treatment of Duane's retraction syndrome: A promising surgical procedure [PDF]
Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2020 Background: Duane's retraction syndrome is a congenital eye movement anomaly with narrowing of the palpebral fissure and globe retraction on attempted adduction. There are several surgical approaches to treat the narrowing of the palpebral fissure.

Y-Split Recession of the Medial Rectus Muscle as a Secondary and/or Unilateral Procedure in the Treatment of Esotropia with Distance/Near Disparity [PDF]
Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017 Introduction. In esotropia with larger angles > near than at distance, splitting of the medial rectus muscle has been suggested as a treatment option. Previous reports of bilateral medial rectus Y-splitting as a first intervention showed a reduction of ...

Correlation between the Limbus-Insertion Distance of the Lateral Rectus Muscle and Lateral Rectus Recession Surgery in Intermittent Exotropia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The aim of this study was to investigate whether the limbus-insertion distance (LID) of the lateral rectus (LR) muscle can be a useful indicator for predicting the surgical effect of recession surgery in intermittent exotropia (IXT).
