The STEP BY STEP - SQUINT SURGERY depicts basic principles and technique of squint surgery in a step-by-step and easy-to-understand manner. The squint surgery is a combination of dexterity, knowledge, judgment and experience which is gleaned over many years of practice. Given the complexity and quantity of clinical knowledge required to correctly identify and surgically treat ocular motility disorders, a quick and practical reference book with step-by-step explanation of various techniques of squint surgery represents an invaluable resource to the busy general ophthalmologists as well as postgraduate students. Major topics include anesthesia for squint surgery, strabismus, strabismus evaluation, counseling for squint surgery, instruments for strabismus surgery, anesthesia, horizontal muscle surgery, oblique muscle surgery, strabismus surgery, botulinum toxin, anesthetic complications, and surgical treatment. Theoretical learning of squint surgery must always be supported by a positive practical training and this book aims to help in giving that guidance.
