Orbital cellulitis is rarely reported after strabismus surgery; fewer than 10 cases have been reported. Nonetheless, orbital cellulitis is a potentially sight- and life-threatening condition. A high index of suspicion, use of a multidisciplinary approach, early diagnosis, aggressive treatment, and close monitoring are all important means of avoiding potentially irreversible visual loss and syst...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Postoperative vomiting occurs frequently after strabismus surgery in children. Granisetron, a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor antagonist, is effective for the prevention of vomiting following paediatric strabismus surgery. Ramosetron, another new antagonist of 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor, has more potent and longer acting properties than granisetron against...

Age related binocular vision disorders (age related strabismus) could include all types of spontaneous strabismus appearing along the lifetime, which are directly connected with the aging process. Neurological strabismus is excluded. Functional and structural changes related to the aging process can induce phoria decompensation, convergence insufficiency decompensation and new onset strabismus ...
