title: Strabismus surgery in a patient with a Boston K-pro keratoprosthesis.
abstract: We report the case of a 33-year-old woman with sensory exotropia who developed diplopia following implantation of a Boston K-pro keratoprosthesis. She underwent uneventful, successful strabismus surgery with recovery of stereopsis. To the best of our knowledge, surgical treatment of diplopia related to sensory exotropia in a K-pro patient has not been previously reported.
