Key Points

  • This research aims to compare ocular surface changes following two surgical techniques: medial rectus resection and plication.
  • Analyzed ocular surface changes post-surgery
  • Compared tissue profiles between the two techniques
  • Evaluated tear film stability and patient comfort
  • Both procedures caused temporary ocular surface changes
  • Plication resulted in a thicker tissue profile, but with minimal impact
  • No significant difference in tear film stability or comfort between techniques

Abstract

Both MR resection and plication cause short-lived ocular surface changes after surgery. Although plication results in a statistically thicker tissue profile, the effect size is too small to impact tear film stability or patient comfort, suggesting that concerns regarding ocular surface irregularity should not preclude the use of plication surgery.
