“…Assessment of binocular potential would be useful, considering that several patients demonstrated binocularity postoperatively. [ 22 ] Of the six patients who were advised resurgery at 6 months, only two underwent the procedure. Of these, only one was reoperated for undercorrection and she had about 2.5 mm anterior migration of insertion.…”

Purpose:This study aims to describe and compare modified hang-back recession with the conventional hang-back recession in large angle comitant exotropia (XT).Methods:A prospective, interventional, double-blinded, randomized study on adult patients (>18 years) undergoing single eye recession-resection for large angle (>30 prism diopters) constant comitant XT was conducted between January 2011 and December 2015. Patients in Group A underwent modified hang-back lateral rectus recession with adjustable knot while in Group B underwent conventional hang-back recession with an adjustable knot. Outcome parameters studied were readjustment rate, change in deviation at 6 weeks, complications and need for resurgery at 6 months.Results:The groups were comparable in terms of age and preoperative deviation. The patients with the modified hang back (Group A) fared significantly better (P < 0.05) than those with conventional hang back (Group B) in terms of lesser need for adjustment, greater correction in deviation at 6 weeks and lesser need for resurgery at 6 months.Conclusion:This modification offers several advantages, significantly reduces resurgery requirement and has no added complications.
