PURPOSE: @entity5971 is often associated with @entity9529 . This study examines the relationship between the presence of @entity346 and surgical outcome in the treatment of @entity1 with @entity5971 . METHODS: In this institutional retrospective study, we reviewed the charts of 200 consecutive @entity1 who underwent surgical correction for @entity5971 between 1991 and 1995. Preoperative clinical characteristics and subsequent need for additional strabismus surgery for a residual or consecutive deviation were noted. Minimum follow-up was 6 months after the original operation. RESULTS: Of the 84 @entity1 who met the inclusion criteria, 15 @entity1 (18%) had latent or manifest @entity346 , and 69 @entity1 (82%) had no @entity346 . Eight of the 15 @entity1 with @entity346 had or required reoperation according to our criteria (53%). Nineteen of the 69 @entity1 (28%) without @entity346 had or required reoperation (P =.155). CONCLUSIONS: Nystagmus, when associated with @entity5971 , may increase the risk of requiring additional strabismus surgery for residual or consecutive deviations. Appropriate and complete preoperative counseling of @entity1 with @entity5971 who also have @entity346 should include this increased risk.
