Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Inferior oblique muscle overaction (IOOA) is an ocular motility anomaly consisting of overelevation in adduction, often associated with ipsilateral hypertropia. The weakening procedure of IO muscle is the most widely used procedure in IOOA. Usually, surgical planning is based on the degree of overaction of the IO muscle.
UNASSIGNED: We have retrospectively analyzed patients with bilateral IOOA with and without hypertropia in primary position, who underwent a bilateral IO weakening procedure. Both the amount of IOOA and the presence of a hypertropia in primary position were taken into consideration for the surgical plan.
UNASSIGNED: Nineteen patients met the entry criteria for this study. In 12 patients, a hypertropia in primary position was present at baseline, and it was significantly lower after the asymmetrical IO weakening: 11 had an asymmetric IOOA at baseline, and one had symmetric IOOA. None of the remaining seven patients had a vertical deviation in primary position before surgery, despite having asymmetric IOOA. None of them developed a hypertropia in primary position after symmetric IO weakening.
UNASSIGNED: Our findings outline the utility of considering both the presence of a vertical deviation in primary position and the magnitude of IOOA in this set of patients. Asymmetric inferior oblique weakening procedure is effective in treating a hypertropia in the primary position and bilateral IOOA.
