title: [Impact of a surgical treatment stage on the accommodability and binocular functions in patients with concomitant strabismus].
abstract: The surgical stage of treatment for concomitant strabismus was studied for its impact on accommodability and inocular functions. Thirty-four patients were examined. The author used the laser stroboscopic technique, estimated the accommodation convergence/accommodation (AC/A) ratio, and evaluated binocular functions at different working distances (in the color, polaroid, and scanning separation of the fields of vision) and on a synoptophore. Surgical treatment was shown to reduce the AC/A ratio, to normalize accommodation tone, and to improve or to restore binocular functions, which suggest their close relationship.
