Question

Male, 7 years old, always unable to see things clearly, seeing people as if through a mosaic. Upon vision check, it was found to have a condition of strabismus. How can an eye that turns outward be corrected?

Answer

This condition is known as refractive astigmatism. Initially, it is recommended to try correcting vision and strabismus through glasses, and a thorough binocular vision examination is suggested. If glasses do not correct the strabismus and the degree of deviation exceeds 20 degrees, surgical treatment may be considered. Different causes can lead to different symptoms, so patients should seek immediate and systematic examinations at regular three-level A-grade hospitals for targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain regular daily routines, take good care of themselves against the cold, consume light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
