Abstract
Although a generally safe procedure, there are a myriad of complications that can occur during or after strabismus surgery. The complications are varied in their severity, with effects ranging from life-threatening to minor ocular surface irritation. Systematic evaluation of the potential complications and consideration of the timing of the event will aid in successful recognition and management.
