Exotropia is a form of strabismus characterized by one or both eyes turning outward. It disrupts binocular vision, making it challenging to focus both eyes on the same point simultaneously. Typically detected in childhood, exotropia varies in severity, with eyes occasionally or consistently drifting outward. Symptoms may include eye strain, headaches, and reduced depth perception.
Treatment options vary based on severity and may involve corrective lenses, vision therapy, or surgical intervention to adjust the eye muscles. Early detection is crucial for managing exotropia effectively and preventing potential long-term vision issues. Regular eye examinations play a key role in identifying exotropia early on and facilitating appropriate treatment to improve eye coordination.
Purpose: To investigate the reading performance in children with Intermittent Exotropia (IXT) under a Virtual Reality (VR) system presenting an image separately to each eye. Methods: Thirty-eight…
