Introduction

The research detailed in this book describes a successful integration of interdisciplinary studies in the realms of eye muscleEye muscles strabismusStrabismus surgeryStrabismus surgery and computer scienceComputer science. By combining basic medical research with a mathematical modelMathematical model, the authors have developed an interactive software systemInteractive software system for clinical use. The primary aim was to demonstrate the efficacy of computer software as a valuable tool in surgical decision-making within the field of eye muscleEye muscles strabismusStrabismus surgeryStrabismus surgery. This involved analysis of diagnostic data from individual surgical cases, their diagnoses, and potential treatments into a clinically applicable computer software system. The proposed method offers a novel approach to interactive, virtual eye muscleEye muscles surgery evaluation and preoperative planningPreoperative planning, grounded in a biomechanical modelBiomechanical model of the human eye. While not intended to replace traditional clinical diagnostics or surgical expertise, this system serves as an objective aid in clinical decision-makingClinical decision-making, offering physiologically meaningful three-dimensional visualization to enhance evaluation and interpretation of disorders of human eye movementsEye movements.
