    <abstract locale="en_US">This article presents a new technique for weakening the superior oblique muscle by lengthening it's tendon. Lengthening is accomplished by a nasal superior oblique tenotomy, and by inserting a segment of silicone band 240 between the cut ends of the tendon.
This technique is useful for the treatment of Brown syndrome and cases with superior oblique overaction.</abstract>
