Question
My daughter often likes to watch TV while sleeping. Now her left eye has a bit of strabismus. How can we treat it to get it back to normal?
Answer
Treatment for strabismus includes addressing amblyopia, promoting binocular vision development, and correcting eye position. Treatment options include wearing glasses, eye patching, eye exercises, eye muscle surgery, or a combination of these methods. Eye patching can treat amblyopia caused by strabismus. Axial correction can be achieved using devices to strengthen eye movements. Eye muscle surgery involves relaxing or shortening the extraocular muscles. Mild strabismus can be corrected with prismatic glasses.
