Journal of AAPOS Jul 01, 2019
Ritchie AE, et al. - In this large, prospective series, researchers assessed the validity of the British Ophthalmic Surveillance Unit (BOSU) study's incidence figure of severe complications following strabismus surgery and identified the incidence, type, risk factors, and outcome of all strabismus surgery complications at a single institution. During the study period, a total of 4,076 consecutive strabismus operations were performed. Investigators found that there were forty-six complications, of which twenty-eight were minor, seven were moderate, and nine were severe. They discovered that the rate of severe strabismus surgery complications was 1 in 455 cases. The results validate the BOSU study's findings.
