5. Study Description

Brief Summary
It will be hypothesized that: Eye exercises have a positive effect on correction of remaining ocular deviation post strabismus surgery. Eye exercises have a positive effect on improving amplyobia.
Detailed Description
This study applied to determine the effect of physiotherapy exercises on correction the remaining ocular deviation which still present following the strabismus surgery and also its effect on amplyobia. Different type of physiotherapy exercises was applied to experimental group for 12 weeks beside the medical treatment applied post-surgery while the control group received traditional treatment only. The near and far angles of ocular deviation were measured before and after the treatment for evaluation of strabismus and measuring visual acuity for evaluation of amplyobia.
