“…Although a full field of binocular single vision (BSV) in patients with GO is difficult to obtain due to the incomitant type of strabismus typical for patients with GO, the goal of surgery is to reach a field of BSV as large as possible (Schotthoefer & Wallace 2007;Dickinson & Perros 2009;Dagi et al 2010;Eckstein et al 2012). There are many possible choices to reach this goal: recessions of the involved muscle with or without adjustable sutures (Flanders & Hastings 1997;Eckstein et al 2004;Mocan et al 2007;Jellema et al 2012;Volpe et al 2013), resection (Yoo et al 2013), Faden procedures (Schittkowski et al 2004) or interposition of spacers to lengthen the affected extra-ocular muscle (Esser et al 2011). As restrictions may exist both in the vertical, as well as in the horizontal plane, corrections have to be performed in both planes.…”

ABSTRACT.Proposal of success criteria for strabismus surgery for patients with Graves' orbitopathy (GO) based on a systematic review of the literature. We performed a systematic search of OVID MEDLINE, OVID Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) and the publisher subset of PubMed, to identify studies reporting on success criteria of strabismus surgery in GO. In addition, we handsearched several orthoptic journals and proceedings of strabismological congresses. Of the 789 articles retrieved, 42 articles described success criteria for strabismus surgery in GO. Most studies defined success in terms of a subjective diplopia-free field in primary and down gaze. Almost half of the studies used a graded scale (excellent, good, acceptable and failure) to describe the outcome of surgery. Three of the eligible studies described a tool to quantify the field of single vision in detail. Quality of life was not reported as an outcome measure in any of the published studies. In conclusion, success criteria for strabismus surgery in patients with GO are poorly defined and no consensus is available. The lack of standardization hampers comparative studies and thus the search for the best surgical treatment for diplopia in patients with GO. Therefore, we propose strict success criteria including a tool for quantification of remaining diplopia plus a disease-specific quality of life questionnaire (the GO-QoL).
