In a further study of 39 cases of Craniosynostosis, the timing of the Tessler procedure and of the squint surgery are discussed with reference to the incidence of amblyopia and optic atrophy. The effects of the Tessler procedure on the horizontal deviation and particularly on the vertical deviation and the levator function are also discussed.
