Strabismus is not just an aesthetic problem

  Strabismus is a condition in which both eyes cannot look at a target at the same time, but only one eye can look at it, while the other eye is on the other side of the target. Strabismus has the following hazards: 1. Patients with strabismus may look a little different from normal people, so they are often nicknamed by others, which will cast a shadow on their psychology and may lead to isolation, low self-esteem and other abnormal psychology; 2. Strabismus can cause “strabismic amblyopia”, which makes vision low. Even if you are lucky enough not to have amblyopia, but because you only use one eye to see things, your field of vision is far less open than normal people; and strabismus patients generally do not have binocular fusion and stereo vision, so their work is restricted in many professional fields, such as: driving, drafting and other positions with high eye requirements; 3, strabismus patients will have an uncomfortable feeling when they look at things, so they will often use the head, side face, etc. Therefore, patients with strabismus often use methods such as head tilting and lateralization to relieve the problem, that is, compensate for the head position. Without timely and early treatment, it can lead to scoliosis and other skeletal problems. If children and adolescents do not seek medical treatment in a timely manner, it can also lead to deformities in facial bone development.  Doctor’s tip: Strabismus should be detected and treated in time. If you look at the “object” carefully, you can suspect strabismus if you see things with a deviated head, a sideways face, or even a bent spine.
