Abstract

Background: Congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles (CFEOM) is a rare group of disorders with variable phenotypes that result from aberrant innervation to the EOMs leading to synergistic vertical and/or horizontal deviations. We report our experience with the surgical management of patients with CFEOM.
