Official title

Intermittent Exotropia Study 6: A Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial of Base-in Prism Spectacles for Intermittent Exotropia

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The objective of this short-term, pilot randomized trial comparing spectacles with relieving prism to spectacles without prism is to determine whether to proceed to a full-scale, longer-term randomized trial. This decision will be based primarily on assessing the initial (8-week) response to prism by comparing treatment groups on the following outcomes: * Mean distance intermittent exotropia (IXT) control score (the mean of 3 control scores) (primary outcome) * The proportion of participants demonstrating a "treatment response," defined as ≥1 point improvement in the mean distance IXT control score without spontaneous exotropia during control testing (secondary outcome) * The proportion of participants reporting adverse effects and good/excellent spectacle wear compliance
