Comparison of biometric and refractive changes in intermittent exotropia with and without overminus lens therapy
Conclusion
No significant differences in biometry or refraction were found between the two groups and before and after the therapy. We conclude that the overminus therapy in children, not accounting for other myopia risk factors, does not affect normal refractive growths.
