Strabismus surgery in adults can effectively adjust eye deviation and restore binocular vision in many cases. Postoperative double vision is rare, making surgery a viable option for adults seeking treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Procedures
  • Vision Science

Context:

  • Strabismus, or eye misalignment, affects adults and can impact visual function.
  • Surgical intervention for adult strabismus is often considered for cosmetic reasons, with functional outcomes less explored.
  • Previous literature presents varied outcomes regarding the efficacy of strabismus surgery in adults.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the functional outcomes of strabismus surgery in adult patients.
  • To assess the potential for deviation adjustment and achievement of binocular vision.
  • To determine the incidence of postoperative diplopia in adult strabismus surgery.

Summary:

  • Twenty-four adult patients (mean age 30.5 years) with strabismus underwent surgical correction.

  • The study focused on adjusting eye deviation, achieving binocular vision, and minimizing postoperative diplopia.
  • Successful binocular vision was achieved in 66.7% of patients, with diplopia being a rare complication.

    • Impact:

    • Surgical correction of strabismus in adults offers significant functional benefits beyond cosmetic improvement.
    • Adult strabismus surgery is a favorable option for restoring binocular vision and improving quality of life.
    • The findings support offering surgical treatment to adult patients with strabismus who desire correction.
