Question
An 8-year-old boy has blurred vision and a mild case of strabismus. How can the strabismus in one eye be corrected?
Answer
For mild strabismus, monocular training can be conducted by covering the eye with normal vision and allowing the strabismic eye to see objects, while continuously training. Additionally, pulling on the eyelid of the strabismic eye can help correct the strabismus, but psychological factors may also affect the treatment outcome. It is recommended for severe cases to visit a hospital and consider surgical correction. Since treatment methods vary depending on the patient’s condition, it is advisable to visit a professional hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible to develop a targeted treatment plan.
