Intermittent Exotropia

Low-dose 0.01% atropine eye drops safely slowed myopia progression in children with myopia and intermittent exotropia, with some compromise on accommodative amplitude.

The health-related quality of life in children with intermittent exotropia remained stable over 3 years, while their parents’ improved, according to study result published in the Journal of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus.

Stereoacuity deterioration or progression to constant exotropia was uncommon among children with intermittent exotropia who did not undergo surgical treatment, according to a study from the journal, Ophthalmology.
