Surgical treatment of acquired restrictive strabismus in infancy: case report

The authors describe a severe and rare case of restrictive strabismus, acquired during the first semester of life, in a previously normal baby. They discuss the possibility of inflammatory or infectious disease as the primary cause. Surgical management was challenging, after three procedures and required the cooperation of strabismus and orbit specialists and also a wide incision for orbital surgery.
