    PURPOSE: To analyze the long-term results in a consecutive series of Möbius sequence patients, who underwent surgical correction of strabismus. METHODS: Ten patients with Möbius sequence fulfilled the inclusion criteria of this study. All patients presented esotropia at the preoperative examination, above or equal to 15 prismatic diopters (DP) varying from 15 to 85. All patients presented lateral rectus muscles severe underaction, six presented hipertropia above or equal 10 DP associated with esodeviation, and five presented anisotropia in A or in V. The patients were operated upon protocol, in a consecutive way, in July 2002. Patients were reexamined periodically, and at 2nd postoperative year as for: the visual acuity; deviation measurements; ocular rotations; cosmetic aspect and socialization. RESULTS: The patients presented satisfactory surgical results in eight cases, considering an eso or exodeviation up to 15 DP and a hipertropia lower than 10 DP. Four (40%) patients presented correction of the preoperative anisotropia. Variation of ocular deviation in the primary position (from the 90th day to the 2nd postoperative year was observed) in 9 patients (90%), demonstrating that strabismus surgical stabilization needs time. CONCLUSIONS: The surgical results were considered satisfactory, improving patient self-esteem and the parent satisfaction, making the social inclusion easier.
