Strabismus surgery may be associated with several undesirable complications as increased incidence of the oculocardiac reflex (OCR), hemodynamic changes, emergency agitation (EA), postoperative pain, nausea, and vomiting. Previous studies suggested that deeper anesthesia monitored by bispectral index (BIS) protects against OCR. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the type of anesthesia on the quality of anesthesia in pediatric patients.
