Strabismus, also known as “cross-eyed”, is a common problem. Many parents have the misconception that strabismus only affects the child’s appearance and that it will get better when he grows up. This is actually wrong. Strabismus can cause other eye diseases, such as amblyopia, and the child’s normal visual function will be affected, and the child will not be able to have stereoscopic vision, which will restrict the child’s future schooling and career choice. Therefore, once parents find out that their child has strabismus, it is very important to catch the timing of strabismus surgery. Early diagnosis and treatment is important, otherwise it will leave your child with lifelong regrets. What should I do if my child has strabismus? Depending on the type of strabismus, it can be divided into surgical treatment and non-surgical treatment. 1.Surgical treatment is to surgically adjust the strength of the external eye muscles and the position of the attachment point so that the eye position becomes normal. Most congenital internal strabismus and upward and downward strabismus require surgical treatment, and non-adjusted strabismus with large obliquity usually requires surgical correction. 2. Not all strabismus requires surgery. If the strabismus is a moderate strabismus, it can be corrected by wearing appropriate farsighted glasses or bifocals. If refractive error also exists, glasses should be worn to correct it. In addition, the method of axial correction training can be used to help restore the monovision of both eyes and increase the ability of image integration. Otherwise, the surgery may fail. When your child reaches school age, you may choose to shorten the levator or frontalis flap.
