Patient's question:
I noticed him looking at things sideways. At that time, I thought Xiao Huan would never do that, so I didn't pay much attention. Now he's two years and two months old, and sometimes he still looks sideways.Hello, what should I do? About past treatment and effectiveness: He has never been treated, and no one in the family has this condition. The kind of assistance I need: I want to understand if there's a problem with his eyes.
Doctor's answer:
Refers to the inability of both eyes to focus on the target simultaneously, belonging to extraocular muscle diseases. It can be divided into two major categories: concomitant strabismus and paralytic strabismus. The former is primarily characterized by the eye position deviating laterally, without movement disorders of the eye, and without diplopia as the main clinical diagnostic features. Paralytic strabismus, on the other hand, is accompanied by restricted eye movement, diplopia, and systemic symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and unsteady gait. The etiology of strabismus is complex. Modern Western medicine, in addition to treating the cause and surgical intervention, has no ideal methods for cases where the cause is unclear.
