A Lifetime of Double Vision: A Case Report and Literature Review of Chronic Strabismus.

Strabismus is a condition preventing foveal alignment in normal gaze. Its effects can have long-standing impacts on physical, psychological, and social health. Multiple treatment options exist for strabismus such as surgery, optical correction, and vision therapy, however, treatment efficacy remains variable with little consensus on long-term impacts. Diplopia is a common side effect of the ocular misalignment secondary to strabismus and its treatment. When defining long-term success of treating strabismus, it is essential that visual sensory perception and binocular fusion has been integrated and remedied. Strabismus is complex and can be challenging to manage. To illustrate this, we report a 67-year-old female who presented with complications from long-term treatment of infantile strabismus. This case highlights differences in historical and contemporary strabismus treatments.
