Vanishing infantile esotropia

W N Clarke et al. Can J Ophthalmol. 1982 Jun.

Abstract

Three cases of large-angle infantile esotropia are presented. Over a minimum follow-up period of 37 months the angle of esotropia decreased spontaneously to less than 10 prism diopters without surgery or the use of glasses, and recognized late complications of infantile esotropia developed: bilateral overaction of the inferior oblique muscle in three cases, and latent nystagmus and dissociated vertical deviation in two cases each. The significance of these findings is discussed.
