Infection post strabismus surgery: A review and case series.

Surgical site infection is a relatively rare complication of strabismus surgery; however, if it occurs, it can have permanent impact on the patient. Prior existing case reports and questionnaire-based studies have described different types of surgical site infections that can occur post strabismus surgery. It is not only important to know how to identify and treat such cases, but also to know how to prevent them, in addition to identifying the causative risk factors. In this review, we discuss 10 such cases of various types of infection that occurred post strabismus surgery and how they were managed. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive guideline by which clinicians can appropriately manage such cases.
