J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2017 Nov 17:54:e81-e82. doi: 10.3928/01913913-20170907-09.

Abstract

Bilateral superior rectus transposition with bilateral medial rectus recession has been described successfully for treatment of Duane's syndrome but never for Möbius syndrome. The authors describe a child with Möbius syndrome who presented with large bilateral abduction deficits and esotropia. This surgical treatment resulted in marked improvement of said deficits.
