Strabismus Surgery in Orthophoric Patients with Abduction Limitation
Small, adjustable advancements of the lateral rectus muscles provided excellent results in our series of patients with lateral gaze esotropia caused by previous lateral rectus recessions. Despite large, early overcorrections, LI scores improved in all cases, and no patient had recurrence of symptomatic exotropia. The results will support surgical decision-making in the management of these challenging cases.
