NCT ID NCT07350330
First seen Jan 21, 2026
Summary
This study compares two surgical techniques to correct large-angle exotropia, a condition where one eye turns outward. Researchers will transplant a piece of eye muscle or use a Y-splitting method to see which works better. Thirty people aged 6 and older with a specific range of eye misalignment will be enrolled.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
muscle transplantation or Y splitting recession (surgical procedures)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could identify a better surgical method to correct large-angle eye misalignment with fewer side effects.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Surgery carries risks like infection or incomplete correction.
