Abstract
Strabismus due to a lost rectus muscle is uncommon. Surgical treatment of the condition by means of scleral augmented myopexy of the vertical rectus muscles can reduce the potential for anterior segment ischemia by leaving the vascular supply intact. We report a successful use of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene in this procedure to correct long-term exotropia caused by a lost medial rectus muscle.
