Purpose:
Is to evaluate the possibilities of treatment in intermittent divergent squint at children and young adults.
Materials And Method:
We studied an group of 66 patients treated in the University Clinic of Ophthalmology from Cluj-Napoca.
Results:
The most frequent type of intermiTtent divergent squint (IDS) is the type of excess of divergency (25.76%). In 46.9% the onset was between 2-6 years. In 69.7% visual acuities were equal and stereopsis was present in 74.24%. Hyperopia +/- astigmatism was present in 69.7%. The treatment of intermittent exodeviation was conservative in 51.5% and surgical for first intention in 39.3%.
Conclusions:
1. The most frequent type of intermittent exodeviation is by excess of divergency. 2. The treatment of exodeviation is an optical, orthoptic and surgical treatment. 3. The surgical technique depends on the type of intermittent exodeviation.
