[Relation between the position of the eyes and binocular vision in the treatment of convergent strabismus by the localization method]

Abstract

The diminution of the angles of squint is attained by localization exercises with hypercorrecting prisms and the straightening out of the angles by surgical procedures. The authors ++ analyzed the efficacy of the conservative and of the surgical treatment in the reduction of the deviation of the eyes in various groups of children in a different stage of cure. They stated that the best effect in the reduction of the squint may be achieved in the group of children with a good binocular vision (the group of almost full recovery) and the poorest effect--in the group of children without binocular vision.
