Question

What Are the Symptoms of Strabismus?

Answer

Strabismus refers to a condition where the eyes cannot simultaneously fixate on a target, which is a type of eye muscle disorder. Depending on the characteristics of strabismus, it can be classified into two main types: convergent strabismus and divergent strabismus. Convergent strabismus is characterized by eyes that deviate towards the cheek, without any movement disorders, and the main clinical diagnostic feature is the absence of diplopia. On the other hand, divergent strabismus can lead to restricted eye movement, diplopia, and accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and unsteady gait. The etiology of strabismus is complex, and modern Western medicine has corresponding methods for diagnosis and surgical treatment.
