How to treat strabismus

Patient's question:

I would like to ask, how are strabismus treated? Is surgery necessary?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment methods for strabismus vary depending on the type of strabismus. Generally, they can be divided into surgical and non-surgical treatments. However, not all types of strabismus require surgical treatment. If it is accommodative esotropia, wearing appropriate hyperopic glasses or bifocal glasses can correct it. If there is also moderate to high refractive error, glasses are often needed to correct it. Additionally, axis correction training can help restore and improve binocular vision and fusional ability.
