Abstract | PURPOSE: DESIGN: Interventional case report. METHODS: General ophthalmic, ocular motor and sensorimotor examinations and ocular motility recordings were performed before and after administration of the drug Dexedrine Spansule. RESULTS: The patient's binocular visual acuity improved only at 1.5 after medicine hours from 20/63 to 20/50, his exotropic deviation decreased from 25 to 10 prism diopters, his stereopsis increased from none to 800 sec/ arc and ocular motility recordings showed increased foveation periods and more and lengthened APAN transition/null zones. CONCLUSION:
