Questions
A child has been experiencing symptoms resembling inverted eyelashes since a young age, and in certain situations, such as after being blown by the wind, they may have issues with watery eyes similar to tears. Parents inquire about the availability of medication for treatment, or whether this condition will naturally improve as the child grows older.
Answers
At birth, due to small eyes, short eye axes, and greater refractive power of the cornea and crystalline lens, children often have a high degree of accommodation to see objects clearly. This situation may lead to esotropia or exotropia. It is recommended to identify vision problems at this stage and correct them through glasses to promote normal development of visual function. Failure to address these issues promptly may result in amblyopia.
