Abstract:
The adjustable suture strabismus surgery has been used for the more accurate operation. In general adjustable surgery is a two-stage procedure, so it has many difficulties such as hospitalization, more chances of infection and more times. We performed one-stage intraoperative adjustment strabismus surgery under topical anesthesia and analyzed the result of surgery. 67 patients were included in this study. The patients ranged from 14 to 61 years of age, averaging 27.6 years of age and the follow-up period after operation ranged from 3 months to 58 months averaging 9.4 months. The overall success rate was 78% (52/67). The success rate of reoperation group which had previous one or more strabismus surgery was 63% (5/8). And the success rate of vertically deviated group was 63% (5/8).
