Brief summary

Prospective study, conducted at Tanta University Ophthalmology Department Measurement of macular and choroidal thickness before and after strabismus surgery

Detailed description

This is a prospective study and will be conducted in Tanta University hospital * Duration: February 2020 till May 2020 and may be extended * The study will include 30 patients who suffer from esotropia or exotropia, inferior oblique (IO) over-action with or without any other type of horizontal deviation Pre-operative measurement of the macular and choroidal thickness by Enhanced Depth Imaging Optical Coherence Tomography (EDI-OCT). Post-operative measurement: First day, first week, one month then 3 months.
