Squint Treatment
Squint Treatment
Overview
Squint, also known as strabismus, is a condition where the eyes do not align properly and may point in different directions. It can occur in one or both eyes and is common in children, though it can affect adults too. Early treatment is critical to prevent complications like amblyopia (lazy eye).
Symptoms Indicating Squint Issues:
Misaligned eyes (one eye may turn in, out, up, or down)
Double vision or blurred vision
Tilting or turning the head to see better
Eye strain or fatigue
Reduced depth perception
Process of Squint Treatment:
Diagnosis
A comprehensive eye examination begins with a thorough evaluation of medical history to identify any underlying conditions that may affect vision. This is followed by tests to assess binocular vision, eye movement, and alignment, ensuring that both eyes work together effectively. If neurological causes are suspected, imaging or specialized testing may be conducted to further investigate potential issues and provide an accurate diagnosis.
Treatment
Treatment options for eye conditions vary based on severity and underlying causes. Non-surgical approaches include glasses or contact lenses to correct refractive errors, vision therapy to enhance visual coordination, and patching therapy for conditions like lazy eye. In more severe cases, surgical intervention may be necessary, such as realignment surgery to adjust eye muscles and correct misalignment. Additionally, Botox therapy can be used in certain cases to temporarily address muscle imbalances and improve eye positioning.
Follow-Up
Post-treatment care is essential to ensure proper healing and long-term success. Regular monitoring helps assess improved alignment and detect any complications early. Long-term follow-ups are necessary to maintain stability, track progress, and prevent recurrence, ensuring optimal visual health over time.
