Comparison of unilateral recession or resection of the inferior oblique muscle during anterior transposition for treatment of asymmetric vertical strabismus

Abstract

Dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) and overelevation in adduction (OEAd) occur frequently in children with infantile strabismus. This study evaluated the efficacy of combining bilateral inferior oblique muscle anterior transposition (IOAT) with unilateral recession or resection of the muscle for patients with asymmetric DVD and OEAd.
