Question

My son is 6 years old and has strabismus. I would like to know how to correct it and what precautions to take.

Answer

If a child has both strabismus and amblyopia, it may be related to the amblyopia itself. It is recommended to visit an ophthalmologist at a hospital as soon as possible for a detailed examination, including tests with prisms, slit lamps, and visual acuity tests after dilation. Based on the examination results, appropriate glasses should be prescribed to correct vision. Depending on the effectiveness of the correction, further use of prisms or surgical correction of strabismus may be necessary.
