What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Eye deviation by prism-cover test

    This test is used to quantify the movement of deviating eye

    Time frame: 3 months

  2. Measurement of eye control by Intermittent Exotropia Control Scale

    The level of control will be evaluated in each patient at both distance and near fixation using Intermittent Exotropia Control Scale. The scale ranges from 0 (phoria, best control) to 5 (constant exotropia, worst control).

    Time frame: 3 months
