Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this case study is to study effect of the vision therapy on a recurrent intermittent exotropia patient before and after surgical correction. Methods: The vision therapy observation included both before and after the surgical correction of intermittent exotropia patients who had binocular vision disorder without opthalmic diseases. Results: According to the results, vision therapy method showed improvement, both case before and after the surgical correction of intermittent exotropia patients. Conclusions: Therefore we suggest that vision therapy is an effective and alternative method for intermittent exotropia patients.

목적: 이 증례의 목적은 간헐성외사시의 수술 전과 수술 후 재발 환자의 비전세라피(vistion therapy)효과에 관한 것이다. 방법: 대상자는 안과 질환이 없는 환자로 수술 전 간헐성외사시 환자와 수술 후 외사시 재발환자에 대하여 비젼세라피를 실시하였다. 결과: 간헐성외사시 환자의 수술전과 후의 비젼세라피 방법은 기능적이상, 감각적이상 및 자각적 증상이 개선되었다. 결론: 본 연구에서 간헐성외사시 환자의 비젼세라피 훈련이 효과가 있었다.
