Adult Strabismus Surgery - Adjustable Sutures?

    Hi all,

    I’m very new to Boards.ie but thought was worth a shot if anyone on here has had strabismus surgery?

    I had a consultation today, and was told I would have a slight risk of double vision after the surgery. The consultant advised he would use adjustable sutures to adjust the eye after surgery to help the double vision if needed.

    Has anyone had this surgery and was told/ had the same consultation as me?

    I’m just wondering is this a big risk? The consultant didn’t think so and thinks the surgery will be worth it - but I mean the thought of double vision does scare me!


    Any help or advise is very much appreciated.


    thanks!
