Question
A 3-year-old boy has been suffering from the disease and medication has been ineffective, causing discomfort. How should pediatric strabismus be handled for better reliability?
Answer
It is advised to take the child to the hospital as soon as possible for a detailed examination. If strabismus is diagnosed, immediate treatment is necessary. Surgical treatment is generally more suitable between the ages of 13 to 20. A detailed fundus examination must be conducted before surgery, and if there is myopia or amblyopia, glasses should be prescribed and adjusted promptly. Actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment, use the eyes appropriately, avoid overuse, and pay attention to rest.
