Abstract
Adult strabismus surgery has long been regarded as cosmetic. This paper summarises the current evidence that this statement should be discarded. The evidence shows that strabismus surgery in non-diplopic adult patients can be beneficial in both functional and psychological situations. It is suggested that the term cosmetic would be better replaced by reconstructive.Entities:
