AIM: To analyze the recovery of stereopsis and its influencing factors in children with intermittent exotropia(IXT)after binocular vision training.METHODS: A total of 166 cases of IXT children who were treated in our hospital from October 2021 to October 2023(2 cases lost their follow-up, and 164 cases were finally included)were included as the research object, taking 36 cases with no stereopsis after binocular vision training in eye position correction surgery as no stereopsis group, and other 128 cases as stereopsis group. All the children underwent eye position correction surgery under general anesthesia, and all received binocular vision training for 6 mo after surgery. The recovery of stereoscopic vision of IXT children after binocular vision training was counted, and the influencing factors of stereoscopic vision recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training were analyzed by single factor and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis.RESULTS: The incidence of postoperative no stereopsis was 22.0%. The proportion of children with an age ≥9 years old, course of disease ≥1 a and anisometropia in the group without stereoscopic vision after operation was larger than the group with stereoscopic vision(all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the course of disease ≥1 a, age ≥9 years old and anisometropia were independent influencing factors for the recovery of stereoscopic vision in IXT children after binocular vision training(OR=1.470, 1.626, 1.539, all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Age ≥9 years old, course of disease ≥1 a, and anisometropia are the independent influencing factors of stereopsis recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training. Therefore, targeted intervention measures can be given to high-risk children to improve the stereopsis recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training.
