AI Article Synopsis
- Diplopia, or double vision, can occur as an undesirable outcome of strabismus surgery, which is performed to correct eye misalignment.
- Some patients may have diplopia before the surgery that can improve afterwards, while others who had no prior symptoms might develop diplopia post-surgery.
- The review focuses on existing literature to analyze the frequency and incidence of diplopia following strabismus procedures.
Article Abstract
The presence of diplopia is an undesirable result following strabismus surgery. There are a variety of scenarios where diplopia exists prior to strabismus surgery, and, after surgery, has either been alleviated or decreased to a magnitude amenable to prism correction. In other cases, the patient does not experience diplopia prior to the strabismus surgery, but there exists a definite risk of diplopia after the surgery. In the current review, I examine the literature to help determine the incidence of diplopia after strabismus surgery.
