Patient's question:
Is the child slightly cross-eyed? Is it necessary to have surgery at the hospital?Doctor's answer:
Not all strabismus requires surgical treatment; the treatment depends on the classification of the strabismus. If it is accommodative esotropia, wearing appropriate hyperopic glasses or bifocal glasses can correct it. If the strabismus is accompanied by moderate to high refractive errors, glasses are also needed to correct it. Additionally, axis correction training can be used to help restore binocular vision and enhance fusion ability. For example, axis correction training devices can be used for training, or prism lenses can be prescribed. If amblyopia is also present, amblyopia training is also an indispensable part of the treatment.
