Exercise Interventions of Eye Muscles Post Strabismus Surgery

Exercise Interventions of Eye Muscles Post Strabismus Surgery

It will be hypothesized that:

• Eye exercises have a positive effect on correction of remaining ocular deviation post strabismus surgery.
• Eye exercises have a positive effect on improving amplyobia.

This study applied to determine the effect of physiotherapy exercises on correction the remaining ocular deviation which still present following the strabismus surgery and also its effect on amplyobia.

Different type of physiotherapy exercises was applied to experimental group for 12 weeks beside the medical treatment applied post-surgery while the control group received traditional treatment only.

The near and far angles of ocular deviation were measured before and after the treatment for evaluation of strabismus and measuring visual acuity for evaluation of amplyobia.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients received strabismus operation
• All types of strabismus surgery will be included
• They selected from Outpatient Clinic
• Patients begin the training program after 2 weeks of operation or more than this
• The patient still suffering from amblyopia post strabismus surgery

Exclusion Criteria:

• Muscular disorders that will impair performance during training.
• Neurological disorders.
• Malignant conditions.
• Psychiatric illness, severe behavior or cognitive disorders. Children who can't understand the therapist's instructions and orders.
