A Randomized Clinical Trial of Observation versus Occlusion Therapy for Intermittent Exotropia

Protocol

Objectives:

  • To determine the effectiveness of occlusion for the treatment of IXT among patients aged 3 to <11 years who have baseline near stereoacuity of 400 arcsec or better by Preschool Randot stereotest
  •  To determine the natural history of IXT among patients aged 3 to <11 years who have baseline near stereoacuity of 400 arcsec or better by Preschool Randot stereotest
