Summary

The study aims to explore the impact of mirror therapy on exodeviation control, near and far strabismus angles, and quality of life in intermittent exotropia control post strabismus surgery, as well as its effects on near and far strabismus angles.

Conditions

  • Exercise Training
  • Intermittent Exotropia
  • Strabismus

Interventions

OTHER

mirror therapy

Participants will undergo physiotherapy exercises in a mirror alongside post-surgery care. The program includes palming exercises, eye exercises, pencil push-ups, Brock string exercises, thumb exercises, and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises. The first exercise warms up extra ocular muscles, the second improves eye coordination, the third motivates the lazy eye, the fourth strengthens eye muscles, and the fifth involves a near-distance jump for oblique muscles.

OTHER

traditional therapy

The patients within the control group will receive traditional care post-strabismus operation as eye glasses and eye drops and regular exercise
