title: [Miotics and occlusion in the treatment of accommodative strabismus].
abstract: Antisuppressive occlusion is an intermittent occlusion prescribed in order to eliminate suppression. This way, the system of vergences is reactivated which results in a stabilisation of the position of the eyes and reduces asthenopic complaints. Miotics are used to treat a recent or intermittent convergent squint. Miotics can equally be used to remove positive glasses and to reduce a visible postoperative recurrence.
