Patient's question:
In this period, I noticed something a bit different about her eyes. When she was a child, it seemed there was a bit of it, but it wasn't obvious. However, when she looks at things straight on, her vision is quite good. The issue is when she looks at things sideways—her two eyes don't align properly, as if one eye sees more darkness than the other. I've also tried the online method for testing whether a baby has strabismus, which involves placing an object in front of the baby and observing where her eyes focus. I carefully checked, and her eyes are focused in the middle position of both eyes. Does my baby have strabismus in this case?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, the possibility of strabismus is not very high. However, your method of examination is not scientific. This situation should be evaluated by a doctor at the hospital through a systematic strabismus examination, such as the corneal light reflex method, cover-uncover test, and alternate cover test for diagnosis or exclusion.This is the advice for the question "Is her eye a bit different recently? Could it be strabismus?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
