Abstract
Because of the conflicting opinions in the ophthalmic literature concerning the efficacy of Ketamine anesthesia in strabismus surgery, we decided to report out experience in 44 children operated upon between the ages of six months and six years. Satisfactory anesthesia was achieved in all cases except two who required intubation and inhalation technique in order to complete the surgery. No serious side effects were observed during or after the surgery. Its ease of administration, freedom from side effects, and satisfactory anesthesia, make Ketamine our primary anesthetic choice for strabismus surgery in children.
