See Strabismus

Dr. Khokhar is an expert in strabismus surgery. Strabismus surgery refers to a procedure in which muscle lengths and attachments can be adjusted to bring the eyes into alignment. Most cases of strabismus occur in children, often infants. Whether infant, child, or adult, Dr. Khokhar's thorough sensorimotor testing allows him to design a procedure for optimal ocular alignment.

Strabismus surgeries are completed under general anesthesia. That is, the patient is completely asleep during strabismus surgery. Infants and children generally tolerate the procedure very well. Adults generally need approximately 1 week off from school or work after the surgery. Results can often be appreciated immediately; however, several weeks must pass before a final result can be seen.
