title: Nonsurgical management of diplopia after retinal surgery.
abstract: For those who manage strabismus in adults, the patient with diplopia following retinal surgery presents a challenge. Mechanical and sensory factors may combine to preclude single binocular vision, and neutralizing the patient's strabismus may not be sufficient to permit resolution of their diplopia. This paper reviews the issues involved and discusses some potential solutions.
