Abstract Background Few studies have evaluated the surgical outcome of superior oblique weakening procedures in patients with superior oblique overaction associated with exotropia or esotropia. This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of superior oblique muscle weakening and the influencing factors in patients with superior oblique overaction. Methods The medical charts of 37 patients (55 eyes) with superior oblique overaction associated with esotropia or exotropia who were treated with a superior oblique weakening procedure at the Seoul National University Hospital from January 2010 to June 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Superior oblique overaction was graded using, a 6-point scale ranging from + 0.5 to + 3, and pre- and postoperative grades were recorded for all patients. Results The mean age of the patients was 91.81 ± 59.37 months. Superior oblique muscle suture spacer and superior oblique posterior tenectomy were performed for 17 (23 eyes) and 20 (32 eyes) patients, respectively. Surgical success was achieved in 15 (65.2%) eyes in the suture spacer group and 23 (71.9%) eyes in the posterior tenectomy group. Surgical success was achieved for 69.1% (38/55 eyes) of patients. Dissociated vertical deviation exhibited a significant negative association with the surgical success rate (p < 0.001). Conclusions There was no significant difference in surgical success rate between the superior oblique posterior tenectomy and superior oblique suture spacer groups in superior oblique overaction associated with horizontal strabismus. Associated dissociated vertical deviation can affect the surgical success of the superior oblique weakening procedure.

Introduction: The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of the procedure of the superior oblique split Z-tendon lengthening to collapse A pattern and treat face turn in a cohort of patients with both incomitant intermittent exotropia and a vertical deviation associated with a bilateral asymmetric superior oblique overaction. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of patients with facial turn associated with intermittent exotropia and bilateral asymmetric superior oblique overaction, who underwent superior oblique muscle split tendon lengthening and concurrent horizontal surgery between 2009 and 2017. Results: A total of eight patients met the inclusion criteria. The preoperative average face turn was 26.8° (range, 20°–5°), and it significantly improved to 5.4° (range, 2°–8°) ( p < 0.05). All the patients showed an improvement in the face turn with neutralization of the vertical deviation. The vertical deviation in the right gaze for the patient with a right turn and the left gaze in patients with left turn improved significantly (values of p < 0.05). Conclusion: The superior oblique split Z-tendon lengthening was an effective procedure to collapse the A pattern and the treatment of the face turn in a cohort of patients with both incomitant intermittent exotropia and a vertical deviation associated with a bilateral asymmetric superior oblique muscle overaction with less complications, and less varying results.

Background: The aim was to investigate the effect of inferior oblique (IO) operation (IO myectomy or graded recession and anteriorization) for unilateral and bilateral superior oblique muscle palsy (SOP); Methods: A total of 167 eyes undergoing IO surgery by a single surgeon between 2008 and 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. The method for treating symmetric bilateral SOP was bilateral IO myectomy (n = 102) and the method for treating unilateral SOP or non-symmetric bilateral SOP was IO-graded recession and anteriorization (n = 65). Associated clinical results and other factors were analyzed; Results: Head tilt, vertical deviation, IO overaction, SO underaction degree and ocular torsion angle were all clearly changed, but there was no statistically significance between these two procedures. Mean preoperative torsional angle was 15.3 ± 6.4 degree, which decreased to 5.3 ± 2.7 degree after surgery. Preoperative torsional angle, IOOA and SOUA degree were all significantly affected in postoperative torsional angle (p = 0.025, 0.003 and 0.038). Horizontal rectus muscle and IO muscle operation did not interfere with each other’s results (p = 0.98); Conclusions: Symmetric bilateral SOP could be treated with bilateral IO myectomy and IO-graded recession and anteriorization should be reserved for unilateral SOP or non-symmetric bilateral SOP.
