RESUMO
Variable angle strabismus can be inward (esotropy) or outward (exotropy) or vary from esotropy to exotropy. Mental retardation has been found to be related to strabismus in 50% or more of the cases and 35% of these had variable angle strabismus. A total of 61 patients with variable angle strabismus were studied finding 55.7% with esotropy, 36% exotropy and 8.2% varying from esotropy to exotropy. Of those under study, 64% were females and 77% under five years old. No accommodative factors were found in any of the patients. The best results were obtained through surgery (recession plus Faden) previous rehabilitation.
