All except one patient achieved bilateral central fixa- tion, the majority of the squints becoming alternating in type, with equal visual acuity.In over half the patients a temporary stage occurred in which the non-central fixation and the squint were transferred to the originally fixing eye.The excellence of these results is ascribed to the fact that none had had any previous treatment, the majority attending for treatment at a relatively early stage after the onset of the squint, and, perhaps even more important, to the intensive and rigorous nature of the occlusion used.I thank the surgeons of the Manchester Royal Eye Hospital for their reference of cases for study and treatment.
