title: Ocular alignment after craniofacial reconstruction.
abstract: We undertook a retrospective study of 160 patients to ascertain if craniofacial reconstruction affected ocular alignment. In most patientspre-existing alignment and binocularity were unaffected by craniofacial surgery; thus, correction of any strabismus can be performed on a child without concern for disruption of muscle tissue by later craniofacial surgery.
