Strabismus is a deviation of the eyes, when both
eyes simultaneously cannot be directed at the object
which is observed [1]. Strabismus occurs in about 2% of
children under 3 years old and about 3% of all children
[3]. This study included 130 patients with strabismus who
were treated surgically in the Eye Clinic at UCC in
Kosovo in the period 2012-2013. Depending on the type
of deviation, patients were divided into four groups: a.
Esotropia, b. Exotropia, c. Hypertropia and Hypotropia.
a) In Esotropia were included 84 patients of whom 19
with monolateral amblyopia and 65 with alternans
esotropy with preserved vision. Two of our patients
were with paresis of the abducens nerve and one
patient with Duane syndrome.
b) In Exotropia were 36 patients of whom 12 with
amblyopia and 24 with preserved vision.
c) In Hypotropia were 8 patients. Hyperfunctio
