Efficacy of Posterior Tenectomy of the Superior Oblique for A-Pattern Anisotropia
PURPOSE: To study the efficacy of the tenectomy of the posterior fibers of the tendon of superior oblique near the scleral insertion, a selective technique that weakens only the fibers,vith main vertical and horizontal action, preserving the torsional fibers, as proposed by Prieto-Diaz. METHODS: Twenty...
