Question
My baby always tilts their head to see things, and sometimes they’ll even close one eye. What could be the reason for this?
Answer
The possible causes of a baby’s strabismus include: 1. Incomplete development, such as weaning, teething, shock, or vibration, which may damage the brain’s fusion function. 2. Congenital abnormalities, such as misplacement of extraocular muscles or developmental anomalies. 3. Acquired diseases, like infections, fever, trauma, or tumors. Sometimes, a baby may develop strabismus after a high fever or a fall injury.
