ABSTRACT
Objectives: The article is aimed at investigating the suture effect of absorbable suture in strabismus correction and the advantage of Watson care theory. Methods: 148 children with strabismus were enrolled in this study and divided into two groups. The control group received routine nursing, and on this basis, the observation group was given Watson care theory nursing and eye muscle suture with absorbable sutures. The degree of cooperation (induction compliance checklist (ICC) score), negative emotion (modified Yale preoperative anxiety scale (m-YAPS) score), pain (face pain scale (FPS) score), quality of nursing management, parents' satisfaction, clinical efficacy, and adverse reactions were compared. Results: After nursing and surgical treatment, all children's strabismus symptoms were improved, and the improvement of strabismus and visual function in the observation group was more obvious. Watson care nursing can effectively improve the nursing management quality, parents' satisfaction, children's negative emotions, and treatment compliance. Conclusions: As a result, Watson care theory nursing is of great significance for improving the relationship between nurses and patients and building a harmonious hospital.

The objective of this paper is to highlight the important nursing interventions and clinical implications in the care of the strabismus patient treated with adjustable sutures. Nurses must use their assessment skills in monitoring the strabismus patient for vagal responses, bleeding, and anxiety during the suture adjustment period. Following adjustment, pain, nausea, vomiting, infection, and safety should be monitored and treated appropriately. Awareness of these nursing implications and human behavioral responses empowers the ophthalmic nurse to provide appropriate and effective care to the strabismus patient treated with adjustable sutures.

This paper presents the holistic approach to the care of the pediatric patient with strabismus. It discusses preoperative management, contemporary surgical procedures including postoperative suture adjustments, complications and the care and management of the patient and family on the pediatric unit. It reviews discharge instructions including pain management, postoperative safety and the follow-up appointment with the surgeon. Methods of determining the level of knowledge of the child's primary caregiver are also a major focus.

PURPOSE: To improve nursing quality after general anesthesia in children with strabismus operation and prevent from accidents. METHODS: 136 children with strabismus operation under general anesthesia were observed and cared by the same nursing staff. Efficient managements were performed to cure postoperative complications. The nursing records were analyzed. RESULTS: In the study, glossocoma occurred in 1 case, asphyxiation in 2 cases, fever in 7 cases, pain in 25 cases, vomiting without eating after awakening in 33 cases. One patient tore off the bandaging lint because of dysphoria. CONCLUSION: A careful preoperative and postoperative observation, early and predictive management of postoperative complications help the children with strabismus operation under general anesthesia to recover and prevent from the accidents.

Many neurologic disorders cause acute or chronic hydrocephalus. Visual loss, diplopia, cranial nerve palsies, strabismus, and papilledema suggest hydrocephalus. Evaluation of these signs and symptoms aid in determining the etiology of the hydrocephalus.

Strabismus, one of the most common eye problems in children, is the inability to focus one or both eyes on an object. Strabismus results from poor extraocular muscle coordination. Patients with strabismus undergo surgery to reduce ocular deviation, restore normal vision, cosmetically straighten the eyes, and develop sensory fusion that will maintain motor alignment. Because strabismus is a muscular problem, patients with strabismus are at increased risk for malignant hyperthermia (MH). This risk is an important perioperative consideration. The perioperative nurse must be familiar with the MH protocol and be prepared to treat a child in this emergent situation.

The use of the term lazy eye blurs the distinction between amblyopia and strabismus, often causing parents to confuse the two problems. Parents often infer a causal explanation from the descriptive term, lazy eye. This misunderstanding causes parents to believe the child may outgrow the disorder. Therefore, an opportunity for early treatment during the important formative years may be lost. The correctly informed and knowledgeable parent will be more active and responsible in making sure that the child, especially the noncompliant child, follows the advised treatment.
