Talk about the baby’s opposite eye strabismus phenomenon

  Many attentive moms and dads find that their babies have some opposite eyes, or some babies have uncoordinated eye rotation and more white eyes when they look at things, is this strabismus?  The baby’s strabismus phenomenon During infancy, especially for babies within 1 year old, because the nasal bone is not developed and the two eyes are close together, babies like to gaze without turning their eyes to observe things around them, and mothers always feel as if their babies are strabismic when they look at each other with their own children. In fact, for most children, this is a temporary normal physiological phenomenon, with the development of the baby’s facial bones, especially the development of the orbital and nasal bones, this pseudo-eye pair will gradually disappear.  The movement of each eye is controlled by six muscles. Small babies often have uneven development because the muscles regulating eye movement are not well developed, and the baby’s ability to coordinate movement together with both eyes is poor, so the phenomenon of strabismus can occur.  What parents need to pay attention to During this period, if parents are not careful in their care, they may induce or aggravate the baby’s opposite eye and strabismus.
