Squint (Crossed Eyes) or Strabismus:

Affects approximately 4 out of every 100 children . It is a visual defect in which the two eyes point in different directions. One eye may turn either in, or out while the other eye aims straight ahead. Due to this condition, both eyes do not always aim simultaneously at the same object. This results in a partial or total loss of stereo vision and binocular depth perception. The eye turns may be visible at all times or may come and go. In some cases, the eye misalignments are not obvious to the untrained observer.


Most common types of Squint :

Esotropia, where the eye turns inward, is the most common type of squint in infants.

Exotropia, or an outward turning of the eye, is another common type of squint . This occurs most often when a child is focusing on distant objects.

How is Squint treated?

                   By wearing glasses or by surgery.

Treatment for squint aims to:

•  Preserve  vision;                                
•  Straighten the eyes;  
•  Restore binocular (two-eyed) vision.

After a complete eye examination, an ophthalmologist can recommend appropriate treatment. In some cases, eyeglasses can be prescribed for your child. Other treatments may involve surgery to correct the unbalanced eye.
