Popis: AIM:To observe curative effect and safety of slanted bilateral lateral rectus recession for convergence insufficiency-type intermittent exotropia.METHODS:This study included 29 patients who underwent slanted bilateral lateral rectus recession for convergence insufficiency-type intermittent exotropia in our hospital between October 2017 and November 2019 with a follow-up of 6mo, the deviation, the surgical success rate, the binocular vision function and the complications were observed.RESULTS:In our study, the mean near deviations, the mean distance deviations and the near-distance deviation differences reduced from -41.72±3.35PD, -23.28±9.75PD and 16.90±2.47PD before surgery to -5.97±4.85PD, -2.66±4.78PD, 3.28±1.10PD 6mo after surgery, the surgical success rate was 76%. The Grades I and Ⅱ binocular vision function improved 6mo after surgery(P0.05). None of the patients developed A-V pattern, limitation of eye movement, restrictive strabismus, vertical strabismus, and rotated diplopia, some patients had transient horizontal diplopia, which disappeared within 2-3wk after surgery.CONCLUSION:Slanted bilateral lateral rectus recession may successfully reduce the near exodeviations, the distance exodeviations and the near-distance deviations difference without obvious complications, proved to be a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of convergence insufficiency-type intermittent exotropia.
