Purpose: In this study the results of consecutive exotropia surgical treatment by using different surgical technics are presented. Methods: This study included 34 patients, aged 21 to 47 years (mean 27.9), who underwent medial rectus muscle advancement alone or in combination with medial rectus resection and/or lateral rectus recession. The mean interval between original surgery and surgery for consecutive exotropia was 8.5 years (range: 5.5 years to 14 years). Most of patients had 2 and more prior surgeries (73.5%) sold by an adduction deficit (47.06%). Results: The overall mean preoperative exodeviation was 35.12 ± 10.13 PD. Satisfactory alignment (within 10 PD of orthophoria) was achieved in 20 patients (58.8%) at 10 days after surgery and 24 patients (70.5%) at final 6-month follow-up. The most common surgical procedures were unilateral MR advancement and LR recession—47%. Conclusion: Medial rectus advancement is an effective method of surgical treatment, especially in cases with adduction limitation, but the risk of the eyelid fissure narrowing in cases of MRM advancement more than 5 mm associated with resection is present. In our opinion for reducing this risk in cases of XT with big angle of deviation, performing a smaller amount of advancement associated with recession of LRM can prevent the development of a such complication.
