title: [The combination of eye muscle surgery with other interventions on or in the eye].
abstract: Strabismus and motility disorders of the eye can be linked in many different ways to intraocular diseases and disorders of the lid and orbit. Different functional aspects have to be considered before performing combined eye muscle and intraocular or adnexal surgery. This allows to avoid unnecessary operations, to choose the right dosage of the operation, to limit the risk of diplopia, and finally to achieve a satisfying result for the patient.
