ABSTRACT
Introduction.
Bullying refers to repetitive behavior or behavior characterized by unprovoked, verbal, physical, psychological, and social harassment among
peers; in order to assault or hurt another person. Strabismus is the loss of parallelism between the eyeballs, affecting 2 to 4% of the child
population. This pathology is evident and makes the patient vulnerable to harassment. In Mexico, the first antecedent of the description and
conceptualization of the bullying problem was the juvenile and child consultations carried out by the Federal Electoral Institute in the years
2000 and 2003. There is little evidence on the prevalence and intensity of bullying suffered by patients with strabismus, which was the present
study in pediatric patients treated at a third level hospital.
Material and Methods.
It is a cross-sectional study in which 150 pediatric patients with strabismus were interviewed. The study period was from March to August of
the year 2015. The Cisneros Test was used for school bullying.
Results.
Of the total children surveyed, 65 (43%) reported perceiving themselves as susceptible to bullying; 36 (55%) said that strabismus is the cause
of it. The most frequent form of harassment was the social blockade and exclusion that affected 55 (84%) of the respondents who suffered
bullying.
Discussion.
The prevalence of bullying in children with strabismus is high. As medical physicians, we must detect this problem. As well as actively
participate in the physical and mental improvement of the patients, through an multidisciplinar management.
