Thirty-four patients with consecutive esotropia had previously undergone bilateral lateral rectus recession (bilateral lateral rectus recession group), and twenty-six had previously undergone recession\u2013resection (recession\u2013resection group). Intermittent exotropia stage and consecutive esotropia clinical data were extracted, including ocular motility (with emphasis on abduction limitation), refractive status, presence and magnitude of V-pattern, and accommodative convergence\/accommodation ratio measured using the gradient method. Comparisons were performed between groups at each stage and within individuals across the intermittent exotropia-to-consecutive esotropia transition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Baseline distance exodeviation was comparable between groups (bilateral lateral rectus recession: 38.92\u2009\u00b1\u200912.78\n                      <jats:sup>\u0394<\/jats:sup>\n                      at 6\u2009m and 36.47\u2009\u00b1\u200913.47\n                      <jats:sup>\u0394<\/jats:sup>\n                      at 33\u2009cm; recession\u2013resection: 39.04\u2009\u00b1\u200912.91\n                      <jats:sup>\u0394<\/jats:sup>\n                      at 6\u2009m and 40.60\u2009\u00b1\u200910.54\n                      <jats:sup>\u0394<\/jats:sup>\n                      at 33\u2009cm), whereas near exodeviation was greater in the recession\u2013resection group than in the bilateral lateral rectus recession group. No patient demonstrated a preoperative pattern deviation. Among consecutive esotropia cases, V-pattern was observed more frequently in the bilateral lateral rectus recession\u2013derived consecutive esotropia cohort than in the recession\u2013resection\u2013derived cohort (15\/34 vs. 3\/26). During intermittent exotropia stage, accommodative convergence\/accommodation ratios did not differ between groups; however, accommodative convergence\/accommodation ratios increased after consecutive esotropia onset and were higher in the bilateral lateral rectus recession\u2013derived consecutive esotropia cohort than in the recession\u2013resection\u2013derived cohort. These findings indicate that, once consecutive esotropia develops, the postoperative phenotype may vary according to initial procedure, with a stronger association between bilateral lateral rectus recession\u2013derived consecutive esotropia and both V-pattern presentation and elevated accommodative convergence\/accommodation.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among patients who developed consecutive esotropia after intermittent exotropia surgery, bilateral lateral rectus recession\u2013derived consecutive esotropia was more commonly accompanied by V-pattern and a higher accommodative convergence\/accommodation ratio than recession\u2013resection\u2013derived consecutive esotropia. The increase in accommodative convergence\/accommodation from the intermittent exotropia stage to the consecutive esotropia stage suggests that accommodative mechanisms may contribute to the consecutive esotropia-with-pattern phenotype and should be assessed when planning postoperative monitoring and secondary correction. Importantly, this study characterizes phenotypic differences among consecutive esotropia cases and does not estimate the incidence of consecutive esotropia or V-pattern consecutive esotropia after bilateral lateral rectus recession or recession\u2013resection.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/03000605261453273","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,7]],"date-time":"2026-06-07T06:55:30Z","timestamp":1780815330000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["V-pattern and accommodative convergence\/accommodation ratio in consecutive esotropia after surgery for intermittent exotropia: A comparison of bilateral lateral rectus recession and unilateral recession\u2013resection"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"54","author":[{"given":"Liping","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical College of Ophthalmology, Tianjin Medical University, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Tianjin Eye Institute, Tianjin Eye Hospital, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Eye Hospital Affiliated to Nankai University, Nankai University, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuehe","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical College of Ophthalmology, Tianjin Medical University, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Tianjin Eye Institute, Tianjin Eye Hospital, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xia","family":"Sheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical College of Ophthalmology, Tianjin Medical University, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Tianjin Eye Institute, Tianjin Eye Hospital, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4343-0014","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rui","family":"Hao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical College of Ophthalmology, Tianjin Medical University, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Tianjin Eye Institute, Tianjin Eye Hospital, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Eye Hospital Affiliated to Nankai University, Nankai University, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wei","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical College of Ophthalmology, Tianjin Medical University, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Tianjin Eye Institute, Tianjin Eye Hospital, China"},{"name":"Tianjin Eye Hospital Affiliated to Nankai University, Nankai University, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9394(65)93991-7"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9394(66)90751-3"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.1978.03910050136006"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3341\/kjo.2007.21.3.155"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.1969.00990020205010"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjophthalmol-2013-304726"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e0281392","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0281392","article-title":"Risk of consecutive esotropia after surgery for intermittent exotropia according to passive duction force","volume":"18","author":"Kang H","year":"2023","unstructured":"Kang H, Shin HJ, Lee AG.
