Purpose: To evaluate the role of conjunctival incision in medial rectus muscle recessions as surgical treatment of choice in esotropia. Methods: The study included 200 patients (370 eyes), operated on for esotropia in the period of 2000-2014. 170 of them (340 eyes) underwent bilateral medial rectus muscle recessions and 30- unilateral medial rectus muscle recession for various forms of alternating/alternated esotropia. We compared the effect (Δ/mm recession) of fornix and limbal approach. Diagnostic, surgical and statistical methods were used. Results: Limbal incision was performed on 110 patients (55,3%) and fornix approach was done in 89 cases (44,7%). The mean effect corrected prism diopters for each mm of recession (Δ/mm) differed significantly in the two groups, being bigger in cases with fornix incision (p |
