Abstract: In recent years, with the diversified development of medical imaging techniques, there are many applications in the  diagnosis and treatment of strabismus. Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM), anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) could accurately locate the insertions of extraocular muscle before surgery, and evaluate the patients with complex strabismus, especially those requiring reoperation. Due to prevent vision-threatening complications after strabismus surgery, color Doppler imaging (CDI), iris angiography, and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) were performed preoperatively, which could be useful tools in the evaluation of patients undergoing strabismus surgery to determine whether a patient is at risk to develop anterior segment ischemia. In addition, eye-tracking data and convolutional neural network can be used to identify strabismus effectively and enable patients to receive treatment timely.
