Purpose:
|
The aim of this study was to evaluate the extraocular muscle (EM) insertion in an Iranian population and to determine the distance of insertion to the limbus.
|
|
Methods:
|
173 patients (173 eyes), referred to the Khatam Eye Hospital, were included in this observational cross-sectional study. . All patients had to be operated on specific indications. After 360 peritomy in an operating room, the distance between EM insertion and limbus was measured with the same caliper. All measurements were performed by the same surgeon.
|
|
Results:
|
173 eyes of 173 patients (85 female, 49.13%) with the mean age of 39.70 ± 4.22 years were evaluated.
114 eyes were left eyes (65.89) and the others were right eyes. The mean and standard deviation of the distance of each EM to the limbus was recorded: superior rectus (SR): 8.63± 0.89 mm, inferior rectus (IR) 6.36±0.40 mm, lateral rectus (LR) 7.029±0.35 mm, medial rectus (MR) 5.30±0.37 mm.
|
|
Conclusion:
|
The obtained values in the present study may be helpful in vireteoretinal surgery and specifically in strabismus surgery.
