Standard treatment often involves surgery of the eye muscles, although its effectiveness and timing remain debated.\n\nVisual therapy is a non-invasive alternative that uses structured exercises to improve eye coordination and binocular vision. However, there is limited high-quality evidence supporting its effectiveness in intermittent strabismus.\n\nThis randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate whether a 12-session visual therapy program improves eye alignment, binocular vision, control of strabismus, and quality of life in individuals aged 8 to 50 years with intermittent horizontal strabismus.\n\nParticipants will be assigned to either a visual therapy group or a control group without treatment. Visual therapy will include weekly in-office sessions combined with short daily home exercises.\n\nThe study will assess changes before and after the intervention to determine whether visual therapy is an effective, non-invasive treatment option that could reduce the need for surgery.",[28,29,30],"Intermittent Strabismus","Exotropia Intermittent","Esotropia Intermittent",[28,32,33,34,35,36,37],"Visual Therapy","Binocular Vision","Exotropia","Esotropia","Pediatric and Adult Strabismus","Quality of Life","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-04-26",{"date":41,"type":42},"2026-05-04","ACTUAL",{"date":44,"type":22},"2026-05-01",{"date":46,"type":22},"2028-07-01",{"name":48,"class":49},"Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya","OTHER",{"id":51,"slug":52,"hasResults":11,"nctId":53,"briefTitle":54,"officialTitle":54,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":55,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":17,"minAge":56,"maxAge":57,"enrollmentInfo":58,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":60,"briefSummary":61,"conditions":62,"keywords":63,"overallStatus":65,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":66,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":67,"startDateStruct":69,"completionDateStruct":71,"leadSponsor":73,"locationsCount":75},"100556738","using-dichoptic-therapy-to-treat-intermittent-exotropia-100556738","NCT06529016","Using Dichoptic Therapy to Treat Intermittent Exotropia","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Diagnosed with IXT\n* one eye that is their preferred eye\n* ages 4-7\n* distance control scores of \\\u003C= 4\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* distance control scores of 5\n* patients with visual acuity with vision that is worse in one eye by greater than two lines\n* no preferred eye\n* patients who would be unable to tolerate wearing the headset for 1 hour\u002Fday, 6 days\u002Fweek, for 12 weeks.","4 Years","7 Years",{"count":59,"type":22},20,[25],"Intermittent exotropia is difficult to treat.
