Strabismus in children’s eyes can be corrected by medication and surgery.
1. Medication: Strabismus in children’s eyes can be dilated with atropine, which is suitable for strabismus caused by abnormal refractive adjustment. If the strabismus is caused by eye muscle paralysis, you can inject botulinum toxin, which is able to paralyze the antagonist, thus reducing or eliminating the strabismus.
2. Surgery: Strabismus is mainly treated by surgery. According to the direction and angle of the child’s strabismus, the extraocular muscles that need to be adjusted in the surgery will be selected, and operations such as cutting, shifting and suturing will be carried out to achieve the effect of correcting strabismus.
For children with strabismus, their families should take them to the doctor and choose the appropriate treatment according to their individual conditions. For those whose strabismus significantly affects their appearance, psychological barriers may develop, so psychological care should be given to the child if necessary.
