국소점안 마취하에서 사시 수술시 환자의 반응

Abstract

The results of corrective surgery in strabismus patients are not always predictable. To lower the chance of reoperation, intraoperative or postoperative adjustment is performed. The authors performed intraoperative adjustment surgery in 24 patients with topical Anesthesia with 0.5% tetracaine. We evaluated the severity of pain and the strabismus angel postoperatively. Follow-up showed success rate of 95.8% immediately after surgery. 79.2% on 6 weeks after surgery and 70.8% after 1 year.Among 24 patients, 17 patients felt no pain and 7 patients had on slight pain on muscle traction. The above results suggest that we can not prevent long-term recurrence after adjustment operation using topical anesthetics, this method causes no intolerable pain and making this a useful treatment for strabismus angle.
