Patient's question:
My baby always tilts their head, and sometimes they close one eye to see things. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
The causes of strabismus in children:1. Immaturity of development. For example, weaning, tooth replacement, fright, or shock can all disrupt the brain's fusion function, leading to strabismus.
2. Congenital abnormalities. These are often due to abnormal development of the extraocular muscle positions or the muscles themselves.
3. Acquired diseases. Infections, fever, trauma, tumors, etc. Some children develop strabismus after suffering from a serious illness and having a high fever for several days. Others may develop it after falling from a bed and hitting the ground.
