AIM: To evaluate changes in quality-of-life of adults with concomitant exotropia before and after surgery.METHODS:A retrospective cohort method was used in this research. Sixty-five patients with concomitant exotropia(ranged from 18-30 years)were enrolled. Quality of life was studied with 2 different questionnaires \〖the Adult Strabismus-20(AS-20)and the MOS 36-item Short-Form health survey(SF-36)\〗, which patients completed preoperatively and at 3mo postoperatively.RESULTS:With the AS-20, 3mo after surgery, the mean psychosocial and visual function scores of AS-20 improved significantly(PPP>0.05).CONCLUSION:Surgical treatment of concomitant exotropia in adults gives a highly significant improvement in quality-of-life scores. We should pay more attention to the impact of strabismus on quality of life clinically to improve the outcome of the surgery. |
