- Botulinum_toxin_therapy_of_strabismus abstract "Botulinum toxin therapy of strabismus is a medical technique in which botulinum toxin is injected into selected extraocular muscles in order to reduce the misalignment of the eyes. The injection of the toxin to treat strabismus, reported upon in 1981, is known as the first ever use of botulinum toxin for therapeutic purposes. Today, the injection of botulinum toxin into the muscles that surround the eyes is one of the available options in the management of strabismus; its use is limited to particular situations and its over-all efficacy is so far considered equivocal. Other, more widespread elements in strabismus management are vision therapy and occlusion therapy, corrective glasses (or contact lenses) and prism glasses, and strabismus surgery.The effects that are due only to the toxin itself (including the side effects) generally wear off within 3 to 4 months. In contrast, improvements in alignment may potentially be long-lasting, provided binocular vision has been achieved and stabilized. Reliable indications for optimal dosages have not been established. There are indications that botulinum toxin therapy is similarly successful as strabismus surgery for patients with binocular vision and that it is less successful than surgery for those who have no binocular vision.".
