    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Pediatric Ophthalmology
    • Strabismology

    Background:

    • Intermittent exotropia is a common form of strabismus in children.
    • Strabismus surgery aims to correct eye alignment and improve binocular vision.
    • Cyclic esotropia is a rare condition characterized by alternating periods of inward and outward eye deviation.

    Observation:

    • A 12-year-old girl presented with cyclic esotropia after undergoing surgery for intermittent exotropia at age eight.
    • The patient exhibited unusual clinical signs and responses to treatment.
    • Surgical outcomes were documented and analyzed.

    Findings:

    • The development of consecutive cyclic esotropia following surgery for intermittent exotropia is a rare occurrence.
    • Specific surgical techniques and patient factors may influence the development of this condition.
    • Detailed case presentation includes unique clinical observations.

    Implications:

    • The term "consecutive cyclic esotropia" is proposed for this specific clinical entity.
    • Understanding this condition can aid in diagnosis and management of similar complex strabismus cases.
    • Further research is warranted to explore the etiology and optimal treatment strategies.
