Occult strabismus has the potential to get worse.
Hidden strabismus is a strabismus that does not show symptoms of strabismus in normal life, but can be detected when the patient undergoes a strabismus-related examination, and it is possible for a patient with hidden strabismus to feel susceptible to visual fatigue in life.
Patients with occult strabismus may experience worsening symptoms of strabismus and may even eventually develop dominant strabismus, which means that they may also show symptoms of strabismus in their normal life. Often this will require intervention through treatment, such as glasses or surgery, depending on the type of strabismus.
Patients with occult strabismus should go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for examination, and the doctor will evaluate the condition and guide the patient for treatment.
