Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The variation of the latent angle of strabismus at distance at three months postoperatively between BR and RR.
Secondary outcome
Reduction of convergence excess (larger angle of strabismus during near vision) Binocular vision by means of Bagolini striated glasses.
Background summary
N/A
Study objective
Infantile esotropia is corrected in most cases by bilateral recession of the medial rectus muscles (BR) or by unilateral recession of the medial rectus muscle and resection of the lateral rectus muscle (RR). The preference of BR or RR is subject of discussion and none of the many arguments have been validated. We compared the outcome of these techniques in a study.

Intervention
Bilateral recession of the medial rectus muscles (BR) and unilateral recession of the medial rectus muscle and resection of the lateral rectus muscle (RR).
