Summary

The objective of this short-term, pilot randomized trial comparing spectacles with relieving prism to spectacles without prism is to determine whether to proceed to a full-scale, longer-term randomized trial. This decision will be based primarily on assessing the initial (8-week) response to prism by comparing treatment groups on the following outcomes:

* Mean distance intermittent exotropia (IXT) control score (the mean of 3 control scores) (primary outcome)
* The proportion of participants demonstrating a "treatment response," defined as ≥1 point improvement in the mean distance IXT control score without spontaneous exotropia during control testing (secondary outcome)
* The proportion of participants reporting adverse effects and good/excellent spectacle wear compliance

Conditions

  • Exotropia Intermittent

Interventions

DEVICE

Prism Glasses

Spectacles with refractive correction and base-in relieving prism (40% of the greater of the exodeviation by PACT at distance or near) equally divided between the 2 lenses

DEVICE

Non-Prism Glasses

Spectacles with refractive correction (or plano spectacles if no significant refractive error) and no prism
