Abstract

Introduction: Infantile esotropia (ET) may initially present as a small-angle, variable-angle, or intermittent deviation (PEDIG, 2003, American Journal of Opthalmology 133:102-19). Some patients experience spontaneous resolution without surgery and become orthophoric. Others progress to a constant large-angle ET and require surgery. Here we examine factors that may be associated with risk for progression to constant large-angle ET. Methods: Seventy-eight children who initially presented with intermittent, small- (<20 PD) or variable-angle ET at 2 to 12 months of age were followed until they resolved or had surgery.
