Abstract:
The results of a prospective study of 66 cases of squint among black Zaïrian people are presented. The frequency of strabismus in routine ophthalmic consultation was estimated at 1.5% with a large number of exodeviations (1.25%). Excessive divergence was by far the commonest form of exodeviations. A large pupillary distance and telorism are common in Zaïrian people.
