An important reminder that children who develop abducens nerve paresis (or any other paralytic strabismus) not only require an evaluation for the underlying cause but also must be followed carefully for evidence of secondary amblyopia that should be treated aggressively when present.

The results of this study indicate that the early use of botulinum toxin A in patients with acute abducens nerve palsy does not affect the eventual outcome of the condition.
