Summary

* Background and study aims : The investigators conducted this study to compare the movement of extraocular muscle after two types of recession surgery with non-invasive tool called AS-OCT.
* Who can participate? patients who will undergo two types (conventional method and hang-back method) of typical bilateral lateral rectus recession surgery for correcting intermittent exotropia
* What does the study involve? Volunteers will attend a clinic for four visits over three months. They will undergo AS-OCT at every visits during follow up period. AS-OCT is non-invasive test to evaluate operation site. The test only requires their cooperation when they undergo AS-OCT.
* What are the possible benefits and risks of participating? This is non-invasive test for your postoperative follow up. Therefore, there will be no risks about this test.
* Where is the study run from? Samsung Medical Center
* When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for? From April 2015 to Dec 2015

Interventions

PROCEDURE

lateral rectus recession (bilateral)

Two types of recession (conventional or hang-back method) are typical surgeries for correcting intermittent exotropia. It depends on surgeon's decision at the time of surgery.
