A 52-year-old woman developed comitant esotropia after cataract surgery. The ocular history was significant for accommodative esotropia; preoperatively, she manifested peripheral fusion with central suppression. Immediately postoperatively, the patient was diplopic with comitant esotropia and was treated with extraocular muscle surgery. The appearance of horizontal strabismus after cataract surgery in patients with a history of accommodative esotropia, especially those with subnormal binocularity, is a possible complication that should be discussed with the patient.

Acute acquired comitant esotropia (AACE) is a concomitant strabismus characterized by sudden onset, mostly associated with diplopia. The prevalence of AACE has significantly increased, and various management approaches have been recommended in recent years. This study by the Council of Asia-Pacific Strabismus and Pediatric Ophthalmology Society aimed to provide an overview of the clinical features, etiology and the nonsurgical and surgical treatment recommendations for the condition to equip strabismus specialists with the most updated knowledge.

Introduction: Botulinum toxin is an alternative to conventional strabismus surgery for treatment for acute, acquired, comitant esotropia (AACE). Previous studies suggest that the two treatment approaches may be equally effective for 6 months. The purpose of our study was to determine whether botulinum toxin remains as effective as strabismus surgery for 36 months after treatment.

Introduction: Evidence is consistent with increased screen viewing time among children and adolescents, and anticipation at the age at which children interact with media devices. Incorrect use of technology, as well as overuse, may lead to serious consequences. This study aims to revise scientific international literature and to describe the potential eye risks correlated to screen viewing time in the pediatric age.
