Two Cases of Duane's Retraction Syndrome

Duane's retraction syndrome is a deficiency in abduction and a defect in abduction movements, with retraction and narrowing of the palpebral fissure of the affected eye. In addition, there are often an upshoot or downshoot of the affected eye on attempted abduction, widening of the palpebral fissure with abduction and mild to marked defect in convergence. But, the clinical picture in Duane's retraction syndrome is extremely variable. Two cases of Duane's retraction syndrome are presented, each of them is Duane's type I and type III, which are affected on left eye. The literatures relating to this syndrome are briefly reviewed.
