Abstract:Intermittent exotropia (IXT) is known to relapse after surgery. No factors to predict or prevent recurrence are known with certainty.

Medical records of 537 patients who underwent surgery for IXT from 2000 to 2022 with preoperative angles of exodeviation of 6 to 50 prism diopters (PD) were retrospectively studied. Multivariate regression analyses of factors influencing surgical outcome on postope… Show more
