Patient's question:

Sometimes when you talk to him, he tilts his head and looks at you, wondering which department to see? What kind of help you care about: Wondering which department to see?

Doctor's answer:

Careful examination is necessary to confirm, or you can cover one eye to see how the baby sees things. Besides torticollis, if covering one eye causes the head to tilt or vision to decrease, it should be due to strabismus.
Medical advice: Ophthalmologists remind parents that some children's strabismus may be caused by poor habits acquired later in life. Therefore, it's important to pay attention to prevention from the moment the child is born. For example, vertical colorful toys on the baby's crib should not be hung too close, and should be placed at a distance of more than 40 cm. Additionally, they should be positioned in multiple directions to prevent the child from focusing on a single point for too long, which could lead to strabismus again.
