The difference of surgical outcomes between manifest exotropia and esotropia

ConclusionSurgical correction of strabismus could improve ocular alignment and binocular sensory functions in patients with manifest strabismus, regardless of onset age, strabismus duration, or type. Postoperative 1-month status may help to predict the final motor and sensory outcomes. ET patients would benefit more final successful ocular alignment and excellent binocular sensory functions from early surgery and maintaining postoperative small deviation angle than XT patients.
