A prospective randomized pilot study comparing fibrin glue, buried suture knot and exposed suture knot techniques for conjunctival closure in bilateral symmetrical fornix approach squint surgery
Long-term patient comfort was comparable across all closure methods following fornix incision strabismus surgery. FG significantly reduced surgical time and early objective inflammation, offering an efficiency advantage. Both BSK and ESK techniques showed no significant difference in postoperative outcome or long-term comfort.
