Both the procedures achieve a significant and comparable reduction in V-pattern and IOOA. Hang-back recession being a landmark free surgery eliminates the need for intrascleral suturing thereby reducing the risk of scleral perforation with possible postoperative adjustment of muscle. It may be considered as a good alternative for IO recession in patients of V-pattern strabismus with mild to moderate amount of IOOA.
