Question
I have a 7-year-old boy who has been taking medicine for his illness, but the effects are not apparent, and he feels uncomfortable. What are the risks involved in pediatric strabismus surgery?
Answer
Strabismus surgery is a minimally invasive procedure with a short operation time and small incisions, having become very mature and generally posing little risk. The recovery time is also quick, typically requiring one to two weeks, but this may vary depending on individual constitution, with recovery speeds differing from person to person. The outcomes of strabismus surgery are very good, and early surgery can correct the strabismus and prevent any impact on vision.
