How to treat intermittent exotropia in children

Treatment options for intermittent exotropia in children include glasses and surgery, which can improve the symptoms of the disease. The cause of intermittent esotropia is not yet known and may be due to factors such as poor concentration and integration skills. If a child suffers from intermittent exotropia, non-surgical treatment can be chosen first, which can be carried out by wearing glasses so as to correct the vision, or by stimulating the regulated collection and visual training so as to improve the symptoms. For patients with larger strabismus and poor control or stereopsis involvement, surgical treatments, such as binocular rectus externus isotropic retraction, monocular rectus externus retraction combined with rectus internus shortening, etc., can be performed to control the condition. Once the diagnosis of intermittent strabismus is confirmed, parents should bring their children to regular hospitals to find out the cause of the disease and actively cooperate with doctors to take relevant treatment measures.
