ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the changes in vision that can happen after strabismus surgery, a procedure that corrects the misalignment of the eyes. While the main goal of the surgery is to fix how the eyes align, some patients may experience changes in their vision afterward, such as becoming more nearsighted (myopia) or more farsighted (hyperopia), or developing astigmatism, which is when the shape of the cornea affects how light focuses in the eye. The researchers want to understand when these changes occur and how they relate to the type of strabismus (eye misalignment) and the surgical methods used.

To participate in this trial, you need to be diagnosed with strabismus that requires surgery and have clear vision without major eye diseases like cataracts or glaucoma. The trial is open to all genders and age groups. If you join, you can expect to be monitored for any changes in your vision after the surgery and to provide information about your experience. This study aims to help improve future surgeries and patient outcomes by identifying how and when these vision changes happen.
