Abstract

We treated one patient with bilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia and another with skew deviation with extraocular muscle botulinum toxin injection. Both patients had pre-injection symptomatic diplopia in primary position, one for 1 month and the other for 12 months. Resolution of diplopia and complete and permanent binocular fusion in primary position was obtained within 3 to 4 days in both cases.
