Abstract

Retrobulbar hemorrhage Strabismus surgery
Retrobulbar hemorrhage can be associated with periorbital surgeries or injections. However, it is rarely associated with strabismus surgery. We report a case of immediate unilateral retrobulbar hemorrhage in a child after strabismus surgery. The case was managed with urgent canthotomy and cantholysis to avoid excessive tension over ocular and periocular structures including the optic nerve.
