- Title
Interventions for intermittent distance exotropia: review.
- Authors
Gnanaraj, L; Richardson, S R
- Abstract
CONCLUSIONS: The current literature consists mainly of retrospective reviews. These are difficult to compare and analyse due to variations in definition, intervention criteria, and outcome measures. However, there appears to be an agreement that the nonsurgical treatment is more appropriate in small-angle deviations or as a supplement to surgery. Studies supporting both early and late surgical intervention were found, so the optimal timing of surgical intervention could not be concluded. There is a need for robust clinical trials to improve the evidence base for the management of this condition.Eye (2005) 19, 617–621. doi:10.1038/sj.eye.6701617 Published online 3 September 2004
