Sensory heterotropia is defined as a secondary deviation following loss or severe reduction in visual function in one eye. We have analyzed the records of 89 patients with sensory heterotropias with the purpose of correlating the direction of deviation with the age of onset of visual loss. Esotropia was found more frequently when the onset of visual impairment occured at birth or during the first year of age and exotropia predominated in older children and adults. There were correlation between the direction of the deviation and the type of the refractive error. We also found a strikingly high incidence of dysfunction of the oblique muscles in patients with sensory eso- and exodeviations. The inferior oblique muscle was the most frequently involved muscle.Keywords: Sensory heterotropia, Strabismus, AmbliyopiaTurkiye Klinikleri J Ophthalmol 1998, 7:18-21
