ABSTRACT
Purpose:
To investigate the risk factors and surgical design for type III acute acquired concomitant esotropia (AACE).Methods:
In this retrospective, matched, case-control study, 51 patients developed type III AACE between March 2018 and September 2020, and the control group consisted of 60 patients matched by age and refractive power during the same period. A history of the duration of near work per day and the use of glasses were reviewed, and the refractive power of both eyes, deviation angles at both near and far vision, visual function, and treatment options were analyzed. Additionally, the distance from medial rectus insertion to the limbus was measured in surgical patients. The data were analyzed by logistic regression analysis.Results:
We found that 99.96% of the patients and 91.67% of the controls had myopia. Of these, 60.8% and 20.0%, respectively, did not wear glasses for near work. Twelve patients were treated with a prism and 39 were treated surgically. The average time devoted to near work per day was 7.24 and 3.7 h by the patients and controls, respectively. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that increased hours of near work per day and near work without the use of spectacles were associated with the incidence of type III AACE. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that increased hours of near work per day and near work without the use of glasses were independent risk factors for AACE.Conclusion:
Increased hours of near work per day and uncorrected myopia in near work are independent risk factors for type III AACE.Key words
