ABSTRACT
Presumed subconjunctival abscess has been reported as a rare postoperative complication of strabismus surgery.(1-2) We report the case of a child who initially was diagnosed with subconjuctival abscess after strabismus surgery for whom histopathology demonstrated an infected epithelial inclusion cyst. We suggest that previous reports of presumed subconjunctival abscess after strabismus surgery also may have been caused by a similar mechanism.
