title: Strabismus.
abstract: Defining the type of strabismus creates a framework for work-up and management. Comitant esotropia is most commonly a childhood condition treated with glasses and surgery. Comitant exotropia is often a childhood condition that may require surgical correction. Microvascular disease is the most common cause of ocular cranial nerve palsies in adult patients.
