Large bilateral medial rectus recession in early esotropia with bilateral limitation of abduction
Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus
|March 1, 1980
Abstract:
Large bilateral medial rectus recession was performed in a group of 85 patients presenting early large angle esotropia with bilateral limitation of abduction. The results obtained after three postoperative years demonstrated that the proposed method not only corrects the angle of deviation but significantly improves abduction and consequently torticollis. In spite of the large recession performed, both adduction and convergence were not significantly affected.

01:20Muscles of the Eye
The muscles of the eye are sophisticated structures that control eye movement and focus, allowing for the precise and rapid adjustments necessary for vision. The human eye is controlled by ten muscles — six extraocular muscles, three intraocular muscles, and one primary eyelid retractor muscle.
Extraocular Muscles
The six extraocular muscles surround the eyeball and control its movements. They are responsible for a wide range of eye motions, including looking up, down, left, right, and rotating...

01:17Accessory Structures of the Eye
Optical perception, or vision, is an extraordinary sense dependent on converting light signals received via the ocular organs. These organs, known as eyes, are securely positioned within the bony cavities of the skull, called orbits. The orbits serve a dual purpose: a protective shield for the ocular globes and a stable attachment point for the soft ocular tissues. The eye's external protective mechanisms include the eyelids, which are edged with lashes that act as a barrier against foreign...
