Managing a case of incomitant strabismus from nerve palsy or extraocular muscle loss is a major challenge. Among possible management options are globe or extraocular muscle fixation to the orbital wall coupled with weakening or strengthening of the relevant antagonist. Extraocular muscle fixation to the orbital wall can also be used in cases of abnormal synkinesis to eliminate the abnormal eye movements of a misfiring extraocular muscle, which thereby allows the use of standard paralytic strabismus surgery techniques. This review article summarizes indications and techniques of periosteal fixation procedures for incomitant strabismus.

Purpose: To study the feasibility and value of assessing patients with Graves' orbitopathy (GO) in 99mTc-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) orbital single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) with extraocular muscle maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax).
Methods: A total of 235 patients underwent 99mTc-DTPA orbital SPECT/CT, including 176 patients with GO and 59 patients with Graves' disease (GD) as controls. The SUVmax of extraocular muscles, including right medial rectus muscle (RMR), right lateral rectus muscle (RLR), left medial rectus muscle (LMR), left lateral rectus muscle (LLR), was compared between groups, correlation analyses with clinical activity scores (CAS) and serological indices was performed, and the diagnostic efficacy was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves.

Purpose: Phenylephrine testing prior to Müller muscle conjunctival resection has traditionally been used to predict postoperative outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine if preoperative phenylephrine testing impacts postoperative changes in eyelid position.
Methods: In this multicenter cross-sectional cohort study, 270 eyelids of participants with involutional ptosis and levator function >12 mm who underwent Müller muscle conjunctival resection were divided into 2 comparison groups.

Vertebrates stabilize gaze using a neural circuit that transforms sensed instability into compensatory counterrotation of the eyes. Sensory feedback tunes this vestibulo-ocular reflex throughout life. We studied the functional development of vestibulo-ocular reflex circuit components in the larval zebrafish, with and without sensation.

To explore the efficacy of the modified lateral rectus muscle splitting and nasal transposition surgery in treating large-angle exotropia caused by oculomotor nerve palsy and its impact on ocular motility. Retrospective case series study. Data was collected from patients diagnosed with large-angle exotropia due to oculomotor nerve palsy and treated by modified lateral rectus muscle splitting and nasal transposition surgery at the Tianjin Eye Hospital from January 2020 to October 2023.

Intermittent exotropia (IXT) is the most common type of strabismus, with surgical interventions standing as its main therapeutic modality. In recent years, with the rapid development of the strabismus and pediatric ophthalmology subspecialties, surgical correction for IXT has become a routine practice across numerous institutions in China. However, the surgical success rate is not high and tends to decline with longer follow-up periods.
