[Diplopia as a reason to operative strabismus surgery on patients with macula damages: a case report].

PURPOSE: This report presents two clinical interested cases. The main indication to intervene was diplopia, despite of macula damages and amblyopia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We describe two clinical interested cases of divergent squint caused by sensory deprivation in course of permanent macula damage. Every patient was observed at least 5 years. We estimated decrease of diplopia and final eye alignment. RESULTS: Both patients did not complain of diplopia, we confirmed very good cosmetic effect and fixed angle of squint. CONCLUSIONS: Diplopia can exist even in cases with squint and macula damages. In spite of this, we can obtain postoperative improvement.
