My son is nine years old. He was checked and found to have myopia and esotropia. The doctor said

Patient's question:

It's been a year. From a distance, things are unclear. Sometimes things appear as doubles. There is strabismus.

Doctor's answer:

Early treatment. If diagnosed and treated early, not only can strabismus be corrected, but the loss or underdevelopment of binocular vision function can also be restored, achieving the ideal goal of functional cure. Conversely, if treatment is delayed and the visual function development period is missed, the binocular vision function will be permanently lost, and skeletal deformities and compensatory head posture cannot be restored. Even if strabismus is corrected through surgery later, it is merely cosmetic correction. Without the "glue" effect of binocular vision function, there is still a risk of recurrence of strabismus.
