Extraocular and Intraocular Infections Following Strabismus Surgery: A Review.

An extensive literature review of various types of infections following strabismus surgery was facilitated by using the search engines PubMed and Google Scholar. In both search engines, the phrases "infection following strabismus surgery," "infection strabismus surgery," "complications of strabismus surgery," "endophthalmitis strabismus surgery," and "strabismus scleral perforation" were used for the review. The type of infection, surface involved, and site of the infection determined the type of therapy.
