ABSTRACT

The prospective multi-centre clinical trial “Early versus Late Infantile Strabismus Surgery Study” (EOLISS) conducted in 11 European countries showed that binocular vision (striated glasses of Bagolini positive) is significantly better in the early treatment group (age at surgery 6-24 months) than in the late treatment group (age at surgery 32-60 months), but there was no difference beyond Housefly positive between both groups. Therefore we were interested to learn, what degree of binocular vision can be obtained in patients with infantile convergent strabismus having with their first surgery as an adult.
