Imbalance of the postural system studied by light stimulation in children with strabismus

: The postural displacements on a statokinesimetric plateform of squint-eyed children during short monocular lighted stimulations show that their postural regulation is different from that of normal children of the same age. The provoked amplification of the displacements is larger, their direction is no more systematized but once adopted it remain stable. The orthoptic treatment associated with prismus lenses and postural reeducation often allows to double their postural performances.
