Factors Affecting Surgical Success Rates in Pediatric Horizontal Strabismus Surgery

This study revealed that factors such as the deviation angle and the presence of amblyopia affected the success rate of horizontal strabismus surgery. Surgical success rates did not differ significantly between esotropia and exotropia cases. Consistent with existing literature, patients with larger deviation angles and amblyopia were found to have lower surgical success rates.

Abstract

This study revealed that factors such as the deviation angle and the presence of amblyopia affected the success rate of horizontal strabismus surgery. Surgical success rates did not differ significantly between esotropia and exotropia cases. Consistent with existing literature, patients with larger deviation angles and amblyopia were found to have lower surgical success rates.
