SURGICAL METHOD FOR TREATING SQUINT CASES

摘要

FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: method involves exposing earlier recessed extraocular muscle. The muscle is sutured near its sclera attachment place and cut off from the sclera. U-shaped scleral flap is detached and divided into three equal portions with longitudinal incisions directed from base to free edge 1.5-2 mm far from it. Two outer portions are cut off near the base, turned with inside out towards the excised muscle and sutured edge-to-edge. ^ EFFECT: reduced risk of suture eruption and coarse cicatrices formation. ^ 2 dwg
