The Effect of Strabismus Surgery on Refractive Error and Anterior Segment Measurement
Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effects of horizontal strabismus surgery on refractive error and anterior segment parameters.
Material and Methods: Fifty-four eyes of 27 patients were included in this study. Patients underwent repeated refraction measurements and anterior segment evaluation preoperatively, first week, first month, third month, and sixth month postoperatively. Patients were divided into three groups, those who underwent resection (group 1), recession (group 2), and healthy eyes without any surgical intervention (group 3).
Results: The mean age of the patients was 24.4±11.1 years and 14 (51.9%) were female. There was a statistically significant difference in central corneal thickness in group 2 before and after surgery (p=0.037). The mean central corneal thickness was highest in the first week with 548.14±40.42 µm and lowest in the first month with 541.50±41.75 µm after surgery. There was a statistically significant difference in cell density (p=0.004) and mean cell area (p=0.004) between groups 1 and 2 in the first week after surgery. The cell density level was statistically significantly higher in group 1 in all postoperative measurements. In addition, the mean cell area level was statistically significantly lower in group 1.
Conclusion: Strabismus surgery has an effect on anterior segment parameters in addition to correcting eye movements and visual axis. Depending on the type of intervention, the number of affected anterior segment parameters also varies. In the management of the patient in the postoperative period, the anterior segment structures should be carefully evaluated at each examination and the findings should be noted.
