Pro: Adjustable Muscle Strabismus Surgery
By David G. Hunter, MD, PhD
Annual Meeting 2013
Pediatric Ophth/Strabismus
In this video from the 2013 Pediatric Ophthalmology Subspecialty Day, Dr. David Hunter argues in favor of adjustable muscle strabismus surgery. He begins with some background on adjustable sutures and the various factors that lead to repeat strabismus surgery, making adjustable suturing a wise choice, and moves on to patients who are most often considered candidates for adjustable suturing by surgeons who use the technique only part of the time and reasons adjustable sutures are not universally used in cooperative adults.
