Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Exotropia is classified as Primary which includes constant and intermittent exotropias. Secondary XT include Sensory and consecutive XT. Management for IXT consists of non-surgical and surgical treatment. There is some controversy regarding the optimal surgical method varying between bilateral lateral rectus recession (BLR), unilateral lateral rectus recession-medial rectus resection (RR) and bilateral medial rectus resection (BMR).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: group 1 :Two muscle surgery
30 patients will underwent two muscle surgery(bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession)

69 Patients with exotropia of (40-55) PD who are ≥ 5 years old. The 1st group 30 patients had two muscles surgery; bilateral lateral rectus recession.

The 2nd group 39 patients had three muscles surgery; bilateral lateral rectus recession and unilateral medial rectus tucking.

Active Comparator: group 2:Three muscle surgery
39 patients underwent three muscle surgery(bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession with unilateral medial rectus muscle tucking)

69 Patients with exotropia of (40-55) PD who are ≥ 5 years old. The 1st group 30 patients had two muscles surgery; bilateral lateral rectus recession.

The 2nd group 39 patients had three muscles surgery; bilateral lateral rectus recession and unilateral medial rectus tucking.
