Enhancing Paediatric and Strabismus Ophthalmology Departments in Spain Through the Inclusion of Orthoptists: Insights from a Nationwide Survey

This initial survey of paediatric ophthalmologists and strabismologists in Spain highlights support for orthoptists as allied health professionals, though garnering support for their training could be challenging. These conclusions should be considered in light of methodological, sample size, and resource limitations. The survey serves as a pilot for the future, suggesting improvements to explore the feasibility of introducing orthoptists in Spain.
