Patient's question:
The child has strabismus, but it's not very noticeable. Is there anything that needs to be done?Doctor's answer:
Preventive and Health Care Measures for Strabismus and Amblyopia (1) After normal vision is achieved, follow-up examinations are required once a month for the first 6 months, then switch to every 3 months and every 6 months, until the condition is completely cured after 3 years of tracking and follow-up. (2) The occlusion therapy must be gradually reduced after the vision returns to normal. Initially, open the occlusion for 2 hours a day. If the therapeutic effect is consolidated after 1 month, extend the open time to 4 hours a day, then to 6 hours, 8 hours, and eventually full-day opening or transitioning from full occlusion to partial occlusion to consolidate the effect. During the consolidation period, do not relax fine motor tasks. (3) In addition to visual therapy for strabismus and amblyopia, it is also crucial to train binocular vision and fusion ability. If vision declines, resume afterimage therapy. The afterimage therapy should not be stopped abruptly but gradually reduce the frequency and extend the intervals, eventually tapering off. After stopping, frequently use the weak eye.
