Yes. In one of its orders, DMC/DC/F.14/Comp.591/2010/19th April, 2010, the Delhi Medical Council stated “A two year old child with a right divergent squint for last one year (approx.) and fundus showing an RD involving macula a diagnosis of Retinoblastoma should always be suspected and a B-scan USG, EUA and a CT/MRI of orbit and brain is mandatory immediately. In addition parents should be informed of the possibility of tumour in right eye. A squint surgery is not advisable till tumour is ruled out. The Delhi Medical Council, therefore, issues a warning to both treating doctors”.
