Abstract
Acute acquired comitant esotropia (AACE) has been a topic of interest among ophthalmologists for almost a century. Possibility of its association with neurological pathologies creates a diagnostic challenge for ophthalmologist. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach to its etiological diagnosis with involvement of neurologist and radiologist has always been followed. AACE is an uncommon strabismus, but the incidence is gradually increasing. Most articles described AACE in children and adolescents. We present a case series of five young adults (age 20 to 30 years) with AACE to highlight the peculiarities of presentation, diagnostic challenges, and management.
