Those willing to undergo re-operation were included in the study. A total of 30 patients were identified and out of this a total of 10 eyes of 10 patients with lost surgical details were finally included in the study. Demographic details, preoperative deviation, ocular findings, orthoptic measurements, detailed SS-ASOCT findings, intraoperative measurements, and post-operative outcomes were recorded.Results: The mean age of 10 patients was 23.7± 5.75 years. Seven were male and three were female. The mean pre-operative SS-ASOCT measured distance from angle to insertion was 8.90± 1.85 mm and the mean intraoperative distance was 9.12± 2.14 mm. A mean difference of 0.21± 1.31 mm was noted, and this difference was statistically insignificant (paired t test, p = 0.57). In addition, SS-ASOCT unraveled novel signs to differentiate operated eyes from the un-operated eyes, and recessed muscle from the resected muscle.Conclusion: In strabismus re-operation with lost surgical details, the pre-operative SS-ASOCT can provide reliable muscle details with respect to its type of surgery and amount surgery.Keywords: extraocular muscle, swept source anterior segment optical coherence tomography and strabismus re-operation
