Delay in wound : Healing. Undernourished persons may have delayed healing of the wound. It is good that you understand your situation and i trust that you will pay attention to your nutrition and share this information with your doctor.

Don't worry: I hope you can overcome your eating disorder. I do recommend that you see a nutritionist or behavioral therapist to get you back on the right track. As far as your strabismus surgery, relax. Your eating disorder has no affect on your surgery. Good luck.
