Abstract |
We built a mathematical model of the eye based on the method of Robinson and improved it. It was programmed with C language. With this model several types of paralytic strabismus including superior oblique paralysis, oculomotor nerve paralysis and double elevator paralysis were simulated. Then we performed various surgical procedures such as recession, resection of horizontal recti, transposition, myectomy. Scott's procedure on these simulated squints and analyzed the results. We tried to show the usefulness and limitation of simulation. |
