AIM:To evaluate the effect of recovery of stereovision in far and near after operation in patients with partially accommodative esotropia. ·METHODS:Eighty-three cases of stereovision in far and near with partially accommodative esotropia after operation were observed. ·RESULTS:In 83 cases,56 cases had obtained stereovi-sion in far,35 cases had obtained stereovision in fovea centralis. The difference in stereovision between pre-and post-operation was significant(P<0.01);the younger the age of onset,the poorer the recovery of stereovision after operation. The early age of operation,the higher recovery of stereovision after operation and the older age of operation,the poorer recovery of stereovision after operation(P<0.01). ·CONCLUSION:The partially accommodative esotropia has an important influence in the development of stereovi-sion.The early correction of eye position will benefit the recovery of stereovision in far and near.
