The occurrence of strabismus in the three youngest children of one family is rarely seen. In a previous communication,1 I reported strabismus in the mother and the three youngest children of one family. There were fourteen children in the family, nine of whom were living. As far as could be ascertained, there was no history of strabismus on either the maternal or the paternal side of the family.
The following report is of three cases of strabismus in a family of seven. The mother and father have straight eyes, and there is no history of strabismus in their families.
