Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study aims to investigate ocular motor and sensory outcomes of two different strategies of lateral rectus recession; symmetric and asymmetric, in management of basic type intermittent exotropia with ocular dominance.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Surgical management of basic -type intermittent exotropia with a dominant eye is controversial. Some surgeons do traditional symmetrical bilateral lateral rectus recession, while other perform unilateral recess-resect procedure in the non-dominant eye. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of two different strategies of bilateral lateral rectus recession; symmetrical recession in which the amount of recession is equally divided between both eyes, and asymmetrical recession, in which the amount of recession is 2mm more in the non-dominant. Outcome measures include ocular deviation at distant and near fixation, sensory status and complications.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group 1

Symmetric bilateral lateral rectus recession (S-BLR). The amount of bilateral lateral rectus recession is equally divided between both eyes.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Bilateral Lateral Rectus Recession

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Symmetric bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession involves equal recession of both lateral rectus muscles. Asymmetric bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession involves recession of the lateral rectus muscle by 2mm more in the non-dominant eye.

Group 2

Asymmetric bilateral lateral rectus recession (A-BLR). The amount of bilateral lateral rectus recession is asymmetrically divided between both eyes, with 2mm more recession in the non-dominant eye.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Bilateral Lateral Rectus Recession

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Symmetric bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession involves equal recession of both lateral rectus muscles. Asymmetric bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession involves recession of the lateral rectus muscle by 2mm more in the non-dominant eye.
