Pediatric strabismus and hyperopia

Patient's question:

Three and a half years old, high hyperopia of 750 degrees in both eyes, esotropia

Doctor's answer:

Strabismus is caused by abnormal eye muscle movement due to an imbalance in the muscles that control the eyes. The random movements of a newborn's eyes are normal. Generally, the eyes start moving together a few weeks after birth. If a baby's eyes cannot move in the same direction (one up, one down), it could be a sign of strabismus.
