Implication

Cross-sectional study reveals refractive errors in children with intermittent exotropia, suggesting a unique pattern in contrast to traditional views.

Key Points

The study examines refractive errors in 179 Iraqi children diagnosed with intermittent exotropia.
Emmetropia was observed in 38% of the participants, challenging traditional notions of strabismus and refractive error correlation.
Common refractive issues included low hyperopia in 36% and low myopia in 22% of the children.
Findings indicate a need for tailored management strategies in children with intermittent exotropia to address refractive errors.
