effects of eye muscle surgery

by mottgirl, Oct 27, 2005 12:00AM
My son (2 yr. old) had an eye muscle strengthened in surgery 3 days ago. Ever since he has had a prominent head tilt to the left (the same side of surgery). Obviously we will be seeing the doctor very soon & are very concerned.  I just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this & what became of it...additional surgery, patches, or did it eventually go away? Thanks.
