Conservative and Surgical Management of Unilateral and Bilateral Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia (INO)-A Retrospective Analysis.

Published in: The British and Irish orthoptic journal (2022)
Occlusion was the most common form of management for symptomatic relief of diplopia. Patients who presented at the first visit with no symptoms were unlikely to need any orthoptic intervention. Of the two patients who went on to require surgical intervention, restoration of binocular single vision (BSV) was achieved post-operatively with the use of a Fresnel prism. However, the differences in both surgical technique and number of surgeries required make this difficult to generalise. Additional research is needed to further explore the surgical management of INO.
