About this study

Official title: Effect of Strabismus Surgery on Macular and Subfoveal Choroidal Thickness Assessed by Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography

Prospective study, conducted at Tanta University Ophthalmology Department Measurement of macular and choroidal thickness before and after strabismus surgery

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective study and will be conducted in Tanta University hospital

  • Duration: February 2020 till May 2020 and may be extended
  • The study will include 30 patients who suffer from esotropia or exotropia, inferior oblique (IO) over-action with or without any other type of horizontal deviation

Pre-operative measurement of the macular and choroidal thickness by Enhanced Depth Imaging Optical Coherence Tomography (EDI-OCT).

Post-operative measurement: First day, first week, one month then 3 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Strabismus and Retinal Thickening, run by Tanta University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Choroidal and retinal thickness change after strabismus surgery (time frame: preoperative, 1st week, 1st month, and 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
