Summary
Early surgery for infantile esotropia can lead to normal binocular vision. Key factors include pre-operative occlusion, precise surgery, and consistent post-operative care for long-term success.
Area of Science:
- Ophthalmology
- Pediatric Ophthalmology
- Strabismus Research
Background:
- Primary infantile esotropia is a common condition requiring early intervention.
- Achieving normal binocularity is a primary goal in treating infantile esotropia.
- Long-term outcomes of early surgical interventions for esotropia are crucial to understand.
